You don't even have to debate if it needs to be on a phone or PC you just got a free PC it's straight up straight up thank you Thank you so much I Appreciate it so much. You're welcome all of you on. Instagram You better get the Twitch.tv Gary V right now because you can't get on the show bullshitting on Instagram Get over to Twitch right now.
stop around. you're not even seeing the whole scene. You should see the chat I Don't want to hear I don't have Twitch it's called go to the App Store and download twitch and create a username Ally Scary yes Al you have a lot of clothes I do it's called Allie's Closet I Love it. Good for you Hey thank you.
Um you have inspired. Oh real quick Ally I Apologize for how do people get on the show. they leave. They leave exciting comments here.
If you see something that you like, tell them to send the message AKA Whisper to team Gary ve Okay so if I like something so everyone's gonna say I have a question colen and their question yeah Abby's gonna watch the questions for me because I'm focused on Ally and everybody on Yeah! So from now on all now we got a thousand the thousand people that are on. If they want to ask a question they'll say I have a question colon then they'll ask her a question hashtag I have a question colon then they'll ask the question the Carly Abby you like you'll pay attention. you'll as I'm talking to people you'll say I got a question for you I'll be like what I'll tell tell you if I like it you have a sense of me. okay then we'll throw them in fair enough Ally Gary All right so um, five years ago, you inspired me to take a leap of faith and build my own business. um I 10ex exit um from a Facebook group to um what I now have and have been running for the last year which is Ali's closet. store um where I buy and resell Patagonia Northface Lululemon and viori we grew like 30,000 followers on the Facebook group and since Facebook groups like lack of efficiency and sustainability like it was really hard work I was my husband was more like my roommate and not not my husband so I was like I got to change it. So last year I built a website. um last it'll be the anniversary on the 21st of February um and I'm running into some problems I am um finally plateauing um and my net profits are going down like 30% a month.
Um I've tried um doing what you suggest. the posting multiple times on I've got my checklist Facebook are you on Tik Tok Live and doing Tik Tock shop I can't do Tik Tock shop because I have name brands like Patagonia Northface and Lulu but um I just for the first time have my Tik Tok reach like 50,000 views on one of my videos. um so I hear racking your brain I I want you to go on Tik Tock live Tik Tock Live is one of the great opportunities right now. Pushing hard and only a thousand people are on right now.
Okay if I went on Tik Tok live right now in 15 minutes I'd have a thousand people on and 80% of them would not even know who the I am because Instagram when you go live like I just did right now I have 567 people on Instagram live I'm about to hang up on them so they go to Twitch so Instagram get your together go to Twitch.tv garyb if I went on Tik Tok I would start with 300 when you go live on Instagram they hit up all your followers. So right away I get 2,000 and then it goes down to 600 like it is right now on. Instagram I Go on and it starts putting my live into peoples for you. and so if I'm on for an hour or two I'll look up and I'll have 2,000 people 80% of which don't know me.
Everyone's job here is to get discovered. Why would you want something to go viral because more people find out about you? Yeah, the number one way to get discovered right now is Tik Tock Live I Want you to go Tik Tock Live and entertain people. You don't even have to do full integration on Tik Tok Shop Tik Tock live not Tik Tock posts Tik Tock live I want you to go live and I want you to go live for three hours a day. Okay, figure it the out: I'll have to quit my part-time teaching job.
Well respect on that so you have that. So give me an hour a day. Okay, an hour a day where you go on live and you do your thing. and I see Tfam Tv4 say holy three hours when I say three hours or I say 50 pieces of content a day I'm just saying as many as you can. Ally I've started to notice that I have pet muscles. Why did this happen? Because a year ago I decided I was going to do 100 push-ups a day no matter what even if I was in a gym or when I was traveling and because I did it I'm seeing visual response had I not done it I wouldn't If if you put in an hour of Tik Tok live you're going to get an hour of Tik Tock live Results: If you put two hours of Tik Tok live, you'll get two hours of Tik Tok live results. But Tik Tock live right now is what everybody follows me for which is insights to where's the Arbitrage of opportunity. By the way, for all 10,000 of you right now I Expect all of you to share this link in your family group chat on Twitter in your Discord please share this link right now and say you're missing it Gary is giving out gems for free.

The team's looking for it and we'll pick best questions. Ali Tik Tok Live is gonna grow you. Oh thank you guys! and yes Alice's Closet we beat North pH for nude Patagonia warn Weare and Lulu like new and we make Su sustainable shopping as fun as we can.
So thank you so much Gary the plug at the end I'm pressed Al Let's move it on. it's in my to SS Stout 123 First time chatter. Big shout out to gamer Odz! First time chatter. By the way, there's a thousand people in here that are getting ads.
A tier one sub gets you out of ABS ads. excuse me not ABS I'm looking for Abs I Know that a lot of you buy gifted subscriptions on Twitch who who's generous tonight and wants to gift some subs to the Thousand here that are going to be hanging out with us and they may miss the best part of my answer because a ad pops up Dustin that's what they said before today and so I think some like I think some of the Ogs need to jump in here I Just bought a $3,500 computer I Think some people in here could buy a subscription Who's feeling super gifty? Oh Bryson's about to raid Let's go is Bryson Raiding I think did Oh I Love a Bryson raid. All right, let's do it Bryson Raid I See it now. it's coming in.
it feels like oh, we're here. Big shout out to Bryson Vader Sports G G Andre how's it good? Too good I Feel like I'm a little concerned Andre I think I'm enjoying this way too much in the first 20 minutes and I have a feeling my evenings and mornings are vulnerable because I feel like I'm going to do this a lot. especially when people raid me when I get raided I get really crazy. Yeah, I'm gonna be vulnerable now too.
My heart is racing here. so much for me. your question, let's do it. uh I'm Andre based in the UK um I run my own startup and have been for the last seven years alongside full-time work. It's been intense. I've sacrificed a lot. um I gave up that job. not that job the startup I paused it last year because I kind of got head hunted for a role to do the same thing they could.
they couldn't say no to was paying you a lot more. Yeah yeah, how old are you? uh 32 Amazing! so you're a child? Absolutely so yeah. I I put that on pause. wanted to throw myself into this new role Um so I work in a university in the UK Um and I promote mental, physical and social health.
Um that's what I've been doing my startup and I wanted to bring everything that learned from yourself and from running my business into that. So I spent a few months building up a proposal around a new social media presence. um, and the things we could do with that to improve student well-being overall. And because my kind of service has no marketing professionals, it's really difficult to explain the impact of value driven content and what and different social media channels.
So um, that proposal actually got rejected and I'm stuck I can't use social media So my question to you is I'm in it for the long run I Want to do this Justice If you couldn't use social media, how would you engage with Generation Z That's like asking me if I couldn't drink water. how would I fulfill my thirst? How the are you gonna reach gen Z without social media? tell me about it I Tried hard three months to put into a proposal and got rejected I stumped for months. So now the question becomes: you decide to just it because the pay is worth it for you right now. like a lot in the seven years.
So um, stability is important to me now. Correct? Don't this. I'm about to go there. Don't judge yourself.
just do this for a couple like bro. I was when I was 32. Ask me ask me what I was doing when I was 32, what were you doing the 32 I was stocking shelves in the liquor store. Do not beat yourself up if you need three or four years for the financial stability that the job is currently doing for you.
On the flip side, understand that I don't have a answer for you when it's impossible to achieve the goal. That's nuts because I've been stuned I I didn't know what to do. It's okay to realiz don't live life fake I Know you talk about like social media for went yesterday. What would you do in that scenario I'm looking one more time brother you so a lot about if social media went down this like yesterday.
Well the problem is if social media got banned around the world right now all of Gen Z and Gen Alpha and Gen, X and Millennials and Boomers would have to go somewhere like you saying let's all make pretend it all went away well we'd all watch television and listen to Spotify and like like we'd have to do something that's not the situation you're in. Social media has not gone away and you're trying to reach Gen Z And they only live on social media. so in what you're doing is playing a fake game I would run pre-rolls on YouTube I'd run pre-roll ad videos on YouTube Funny should say that I can only have an unlisted YouTube Yeah, it sounds like you work at a place. Yeah, large organizations realize now they're hard to no I run a Ad Agency that works with only large organizations and they're struggling with relevance because they live in yesterday. But that doesn't mean you should beat yourself up and think you're a bad man for the next three years while you collect that paycheck and you just make the most out of like your dog situation. So keep fighting until I don't have to I can move on. You got to keep overc communicating that there is no way to reach Gen Z outside of I mean Gen Z doesn't even use Google for search to use Tik Tok What the Am I supposed to do All right? That helps. Here's why it should help: if you leave this call: not beating yourself up and playing some sort of fake game like there's some answer.
And if you don't beat yourself up for being okay for working here for three years to collect a paycheck because you need to save some money for stability and then you can do your next thing, then you've left here in a good game. To be honest, you taught me that perspective for a long time now, which is why I'm still in the same role and I haven't left I'm proud of you me so thank you very much for that game. Appreciate who's next yo, who's what's up brother, what's your name Andy Gillers Slea how are you doing Andy It is such a player pleasure pleasure. You're a player too.
you look like a player. So I'm out here in uh in heon Spain I uh I went to The Culinary Institute of America in New York but I switched careers like I graduated C Institute in my early 30s um and I moved out here with my wife and you know we got residency which is lovely and uh, you know in the meantime I kind of had to do some Consulting work which ended up kind of becoming a fulltime gig with recipe writing and uh, creating content for like newsletters and things like that. uh which I really really love and also doing some you know videos on Tik Tok uh and I love your messaging with social media I Guess one of my questions was do you think as someone that's either a consultant or someone that's you know? uh uh, someone that's providing a good or a service? Do you think it's important to give away some of your content for free when you're starting out? Whether it is a as much as humanly possible yeah, gotcha, advice is not free. Advice is not valuable when it's General right bro.
There's nothing you would say in the Tik Tok that somebody else hasn't said before. Absolutely now I do mostly cooking videos I don't give a I also have I have 126 followers you know this is that's better than zero. Yeah, sure give away everything as humanly possible for free. That is what I do.

It's been like for the last three and a half years, but I'm at work. What you thinking about How to start? Do you know what to do? Like do you have the general basics of like how do you record an audio how uploaded to Spotify and apple? Do you have that sense No I don't I'm just like putting one foot in front of the other as of right now. Yeah, no worries. That's why I'm here.
I'm here for this reason literally go to literally go to Google after tonight and type in how do I upload an audio file All right to a podcast. Okay, the amazing thing about Google and YouTube is it's there for all of us at 101. Okay, you know, like for some people like I realize that like my soas hurt. Yeah, that's like a muscle, right? So I was like how do I stretch my so ass enter I didn't know. Okay, and you don't know how to do a podcast? Good news. Literally type in in YouTube and Andor Google Maybe you read better I'm more audio and video. Yes, so more audio and video go to YouTube If you're more reading, go into Google and type in how do I upload an audio file for a podcast How do I post my first episode of a podcast? Whatever your question is, it will show you the answer. Okay, that's it all right and how did you get comfortable like I'm so like because I don't give about people making fun Me: I'm I'm I'm and it's crazy for me like I'm the opposite like I feel like I can do like public speaking I can talk up talk to anyone I come across like daily even at work, at home, people calling my phone or I'm at work.
people like talking to me on like casual conversations but it just be like basic but then it goes into them telling me like personal business think that makes people feel warm to you right? right? So then I think in the back of my head like wow this person is telling me their personal business but I can do this in person But far as like recording I really get like stuck whereas though I'm like uh what do I do now what do I say now what do I say next Things like that, just ask questions okay how you feeling, what's wrong, what's on your mind Okay when you feel stuck as a podcast host ask questions, ask basic questions. Okay, what most upsets you, what you up the most Okay, what are you about? Okay, what's on your mind, That's it. Okay I I think I think it's a different thing I think you're worried about the Judgment Most people don't start because they worry about judgment. You can say that Yes for me Yes, you know what I mean darl.
Honestly, here's my thing on that. like who gives a right? Winners? Don't judge because they're worried about their and losers judge. And what the are you worried about losers for right? Winners? Don't judge I'm not spending time worried about you doing well on your podcast. Okay losers who have misery loves company.
They're the ones that are going to tell you your podcast sucks because they got time to tell you that to tell you I ain't got time to tell you I'm wi it. yeah I'm busy Exactly. People are out here, not living dreams because they're worried about other people who are losing Judging them right?

Coach A What's good y Gary Man first and foremost man I got to give you your flowers man I mean honestly I learned so much from you over the years. Um, you know I'm a professional boxing coach I've been working with professional fighters MMA fighters UFC fighters everything but then I also went ahead and moved it online. um and I have a YouTube channel I do all that stuff online now and a lot of stuff that I do from Instagram and all that is from learning basically by trying to mirror and mimic what I see you doing I mean that's as basic as I can get I said bro I read I get a thousand these DMS a month I Say it all the time. Watch what I'm doing I'm focused on live right now.
You should be focused on live I'm focused on LinkedIn you should like it's thank you for saying that. It's my greatest joy watching people follow my moves and get their you know, get their wins from it real quick though. I Apolog There's a hype train. There's also people asking for Subs because people are up with these ads I I I saw I saw Pok scoot. Get in there and give some who's at the top of the list. Ginger's giving some subs I We need some we need gifted Subs in here. Go ahead coach. It's crazy.
It's crazy because I've been around. you know some of the you know High highly talented athletes I'm I'm freaking Star Struck Talking to you man, it's crazy man. how much I respect you man. But um, thank you right? All right, a couple of things man.
Real quick man. um you know I see that you're you're pushing over to Twitch I see that you're you're pushing over to Twitch you know I do obviously on Instagram I could teach instructionals, teach people how to slip, jab, jab, jab right hook right? I could do all that stuff on on Twitch I mean on on Tik Tok I could do that on Instagram YouTube shorts but I see the the push to Twitch I Think live streaming is where social media was 10 years ago. 10 years ago, 20 14 Social media was already known. it had come out for like seven years, but people were underestimating how big it was GNA be I was on Twitch when it was Justin.tv I've done live when it was on Ustream but I feel like we're in this moment where we're on the preice of many different ways of being on live right? meaning I feel like I For example, for everybody's tuned in I'm here every day that I'm in the office and we're live in theice office and I'm unmuting and talking to you on mute all thousand of you I Expect you here tomorrow.
let's hang out. Work with me. This is like my big new genre. The work with me behind the scenes, just come and hang with me while I'm in the office.
Video game players, streamers like C you know, like all those people like Aiden Ross all that like that genre is known. but a businessman that's really running a $400 million company with 2,000 employees just chilling in his office taking meetings all day. People don't think that's right. Just like people didn't think you could do anything besides Tik Tock dancing if you're on Tik Tok but I was telling everybody no you can do other I think all of us can be live doing whatever the we do I believe one of the most famous people in America could be a gardener who's just live gardening.
So like I'm sorry I'm sorry go ahead no no I'm sorry go ahead no I'm just saying so. So for instance, like me, let's just say say I'm not um, coaching a fighter or something like that I decid to go Live on Twitch like what? Like how would you like if you were a boxing coach? how would you approach the whole twitch thing because I Understand on Instagram You can Go live Tik Tok You Can Go live YouTube You Can Go live. How would you? First of all, twitch is hard Tik Tock is the opportunity Okay Tik Tok Live is just gonna put you in front of people and I would just look at the camera and talk. Okay, all right. um TI different you got understand Tik Tok's different than everything because the longer you're on live the more they're going to put you in people's streams to discover you. No other platforms doing that. So Tik Tok I Notic it it goes up slow right? Tik Tok goes up slow because I've been on Tik Tok where I feel like nobody's there and then out of nowhere like people start showing up. Is that just how that algorithm works? It's just yes, the biggest reason at zero for five minutes and then out of nowhere it'll just pop in.
Well, maybe not, you wouldn't know, but I Know no I know too bro. I Know that there's only 568 people on my Instagram right this second and there was 2,000 the second I went live. It goes down because it pings your users and then goes down. Tik Tock The longer you're on, the more they're putting you in random people's for you page and you get discovered so you would just go live.
Big shout out to Wes Martin Who just said who's this guy I Don't know if he's talking about me or you but we're just some dudes. Wes Thank you for being here. Yeah um yeah I mean I I don't really go live on Tik Tok I've seen you tell the young lady to to go on there for 3 hours straight so again you just you just like it. As simple as place the camera up, put in your office, whatever you're doing work, listen to music, look at the thing, answer boxing questions I don't know, go food, shopping and put on your forehead.
Live is next. Live has been going just like Social's been going, but it's on I feel like it's not next, like it's not like I'm saying something nobody's ever heard before I think Liv's about to explode I I I I I Agree, we're tired of the same Clips on Social Liv is a different medium now. Question about stories on Instagram like uh, like a Instagram story What? I'm noticing is I don't know what gets in front of the in front of my audience on stories right? I'll post something 5 10,000 views I'll post something2 200 views. Is there a strategy or simple method? Do you feel that Instagram pushes stories you need? It's all about compelling.
The more you put out that the first 50 people that see it love it, the more likely you're going to reach more people. Okay, so that if not that many people saw it, it's because they just didn't because the first hundred people that saw it thought it was whack. Got it all right? Fair enough good. Get I got bounce One thing man.
one thing. I'm in Jersey Man can I can I can I get you boxing session Can I give you a boxing session Man, you might be able to send me an email Gary at Bner Media Come on man. let me train you man. I'm in Jersey I'm in Cherry Hill Dude, you're not in Jersey you're in Philly that's 100 years from Jersey Cherry Hills Philadelphia hours I'm from I'm from New York City though I just live here.
don't K that Jersey you're Philly bro I know Jerry Hill All right thank you Gary We'll talk soon. All right who we got who just came up brand new to Twitch Thanks for Gary Mocktail. Let's go Mocktail. Mom is in the building. Let's clap it up for mocktail. Mom Emily How are you? Oh my Gosh! I'm great. How are you? Gary I'm well. fire away Yeah! So what are the three top qualities that you look for in a person? professionally and then also just with friendships? I Think empathy is the first thing I'm most attractive to.
Does one have the capacity to care about other people? It's huge for me. Um, two. I'm a very big fan of optimism I am shocked how many people think this glass is empty. Do you know how many people I know think this glass is empty and then meanwhile me: do, are you okay? Was that a good one? Was that so good that your phone? it's actually propped up on a base of my mom's uh, for when she was alive and it just the phone just slid.
So sorry about that. Was your mom a big fan of optimism? No clearly. I'm trying to honor her because she's not here anymore. but respect I'm jumping in and making it easy for her.
look I I'll go I'll be vulnerable and talk about my mom. If there was one drop of water in here, she would be optimistic. and my father, who's changed a lot in the last decade, but 20 years ago, this full cup, he would find reason of what's wrong in between this tippy top and this part. So I'm very big on empathy I'm incredibly big on optimism.
The thing that I'm most visceral to is all the people in the chat here. Big shout out to Scuba Steve who just bought a bunch of Tier One. Subs The people here who are cynical by default. pessimistic by default because they're emotionally not strong and it's easier to be that way.
I struggle with that. So I need optimism I need empathy and I would say the third thing that I really appreciate is accountability. I Think that way too many people in the world right now are pointing figures on blaming people. It's my mom's fault.
It's my dad's fault. It's my ex-husband's fault. It's my ex-wife's fault. It's my brother's fault.
It's my sister 's fault. It's my boss's fault. It's Biden's fault. It's Trump's fault.
Like it's the media's fault. It's social media's fault. Everything is. Everybody's gotten addicted to pointing fingers.
We completely lack accountability and so for me it's empathy. It's optimism and it's accountability. Well, I just thank you so much for the level of kindness and empathy that you do have for people all over the world. It has really touched my heart for years and I just want to thank you because that to me is what's most important you know.
I'm raising my 8-year-old son Cody And that's what I instill in him every day is just to be as loving and kind as he can be to all people no matter what they're doing in life and what their spiritual beliefs are. And my biggest dream was to become a mom. and I told my son on the way to school today your story about your jets Jersey How your mom made you one. My son didn't know who you were until this morning. I had you on in my car taking him to school and I told him about it and his whole face lit up I told him the exact story about how your mom knitted you that when you were young and you guys were poor and that you wanted to buy the New York Jets so you could put in the plaque. You know coming from a little boy that you know his momy buying it. Yeah and it just first of you are the human that I most admire I don't give a about Jeff Bezos or Steve Jobs or Gary Vaynerchuk. The person I most look up to is the mom or dad whose number one goal was to only be a mom or dad I am the byproduct of a woman whose singular goal in life was to be the best mother she could be.
and there's nothing I Admired No athlete no Aaron Roggers No, you know Brunson no no Novak Jokovic There's no, there's no Martin Luther King There's no Gandhi And there's definitely no business person, no nobody who made money that is remotely close to me for the admiration I have for you and tomorrow, Vaynerchuk and all the other mom and dads out there whose singular ambition was to be a mom or dad I couldn't admire it more. That's amazing. Thank you so much you know I'm so grateful for you Gary And your heart this is you know, one of the biggest honors uh of my life is to be able to meet people like you because this world needs people that lead with empathy and kindness. and I Heard about your empathy wines years ago so I started the hashtag em Emily empathy because of that and I just I Really my deepest prayer for this world is unity and that we have more people like you that lead way that you do.
We have so much unity and the media and social Med Like people don't get it Emily Good news the world is more unified Than People Realize of course we have differences. News Alert: We've had differences forever there's been. World Wars The the biggest wish I had for people is for people to get out of the news Cycles both in Social and mainstream media and understand how much Unity we have. Do you understand how much love is in this room right now? Yes, there's unimited love, but we've but people love to sell us on what's not wrong because we watch.
You know? you know? my favorite part about this hour and a half is gonna be that it's an hour and a half that are not on CNN and Fox News and are not in their Facebook feed or Instagram consuming some negativity. anyway I got I got rid of my TV years ago and I don't watch the news I have one friend and I said if there's something going on in the world that I need to know, please let me know but I refuse to watch it. so I love you for that. Honestly like it's so crazy like all we're doing and by the way, social too.
And by the way, for all of you that are mad at social media, unfollow the people that are pushing negative content be accountable I don't want to hear about the algorithm. the algorithm is you. you're the algorithm. Thank you Emily Let's keep it going more Everybody who's on right now. let's share this link: I Want new people in here and if you send someone I want them to say Johnny sent me or let me get some names in here. You know, like haunted house sent me horse whatever Israel 11 sent me, twins sent me sweet Dabs sent me. Let's keep asking the questions. let's keep answering PR King of Hearts ready there we go Bro there we go Deck gu PR King What's good? What's going on Gary How you doing good bro? Where you at? Uh Long Island New York My man? Yes, yes yes, um all right So I'm 34 years old I'm a single father of two.
uh my name is Gilberto but I go by PR the King of Hearts on social media. uh real quick. um background. So you have an idea where I'm coming from I was focused on being an independent music artist I started focusing on saving up money to build a home recording studio to start doing projects covid hit.
No one can come anywhere near anyone. So I decided to Pivot and turn my project which I was going to call clocking out into an actual brand and I made it a podcast I used all my recording stuff uh to basically use for streaming and I've been trying to work on just building a brand of focusing on people that want to clock out of their nine-to-five jobs that they really have no interest in and just try to uh, build something from nothing. uh, that's focused on what they actually have a a passion for and that they're really interested in and I wanted to ask you what do you do or if you ever find yourself day dreaming about the future or putting too much energy into thinking about how things are going to end up in the future that you end up missing all the beautiful things that life has to offer in the current present time. If you could give an example of that and what you did to ground yourself and focus on the present and and now um, I have the capacity to think about both.
I've never struggled with being so focused on the future that I ruin the now because I've also been okay with working my ass off for two years and not enjoying the fruits of friendship, time and downtime. because I've enjoyed my process. for me, working on my missions has been as exciting as going to Las Vegas with my boys. So I don't I don't struggle with it because I'm aware that I signed up for it gotcha.
You know what I mean Yeah, like the only thing I'm always worried about is not spending enough time with my family. Other than that, exactly. Yeah, that's that's mostly what I'm thinking about. Yeah on that bro.
I'm just willing to change my mind like my Friday nights I used to work every night now I don't my Thursday nights this year I used to work every night now I don't So if you re like I'm willing to adjust and reallocate my time. That's it, Bro. That's all it is I Appreciate that. Don't worry about yesterday. If you feel like you haven't spent enough time with those two little ones or your brother or your uncle or whatever, fix it tomorrow. You're right. The biggest problem in the world, Bro is people dwell. Yeah, there's no time machine.
That's that's my issue. It's over. Of course, it's your issue. It's everyone's issue.
Exactly. Do you know how insane dwelling is? People dwell like they think there's a time machine. You're right. The are we dwelling about? Exactly.
Yeah, if you're dwelling, you're up today because you're mad about yesterday. Yep, you literally up today on some about being upset about up yesterday. M Yeah, you're completely right. Learn from your dwelling and stop that.
Be accountable I up I Was too hungry for the money I wanted the fame I didn't worried about Little GTO I Don't know. It's okay we all up I made 19 trillion mistakes I'm not out here mad at myself I Love myself I'm a human being. Show me the human being that didn't make a thousand mistakes true, just about learning from them. Yeah, the problem is, we put everybody else on a pedestal and we on ourselves.
Exactly Yeah, that's that's the problem. I'm telling all 10,000 of you right now. Don't put me on a pedestal I'm feeling good about myself I'm a nice guy I'm capable I Got love I'm funny I Work hard I got stuff but like me, don't put me on a pedestal. put yourself on a pedestal exactly.

I Can't believe I'm on the show? Hell yeah, you're on the show. This is crazy. Um so yeah. I Just have a question about like um, how do you hold space for people that are not necessarily in a good place and they're like just venting to you? Whether that's friends, co-workers just random people off the street.
Um, they're just they're explaining themselves. But then like a part of me I feel bad and they kind of like it's like an energy drainer like throughout my day And because I'm thinking about their shortcoming I'm like there's nothing I can do about it. Like like how do you? How do you deal with people like venting and complaining to you like can I give you can I give you can I give you a huge idea Heck yeah do you have a Tik Tok I do I want you to make a Tik Tok at the end of the day? okay and I want you to call it Dumping the bucket Okay I want you to start a show on Tik Tok every night every night. Hell Yeah! This is gonna help you and make and really help you a lot of ways I want you to start a show a one minute video that you make every night called Dumping the Bucket what's your name again darling my name is Kiera I want you to call Dumping the Bucket with Kier every episode that's that's crazy I have okay I have a um a podcast called the Onx Strong podcast I'm in the health and fitness industry so I I give health and fitness advice to beginners.
so I guess I can start start it on my stick with me stick with me I want you to make a one to two minute video every night called dumping the Bucket with Kiara and I want you to say I started this show because Gary B on Twitch told me to do it okay and I want you to start every episode with I'm an empath and I've got room for people every day and every night I'm gonna make a video talking about something I observed without using people's real names and I'm gonna dump out what I took in because I know by me dumping it out and helping the world, it's going to help me not have it in me anymore. And so I'm going to take someone's anxiety and negativity and concern I'm going to sit with it during the day, but every night I'm going to dump it to the world. and I'm hoping that the people I come across every day that are struggling become an inspiration and observation for y'all Wow. Okay I can do that. What's gonna happen is two things you're going to get. oh do we lose her? Damn. I Feel like we're winning? Well let me just tell her repost. Any yeah, let's let's move on to the next question.
but team for everyone. kir if you're watching in case your phone just died What? Maybe she went and did it, she might be the biggest. She might be the greatest guest of all time she just doing it. Um I believe dumping the bucket as a team knows here.
I've been talking for two months that I'm gonna start a show called Winding Down and they all make fun of me. mainly I make fun of myself that I haven't started yet and what I want to do is drink a bottle of wine, review it at night, and talk about my day of observations. So I'm giving Kiara similar advice. there you are.
sorry about that I don't know what just happened my man. No worries my darling. I Think you're gonna win twice. One, you're gonna get that off.
you're gonna get that off your chest. two. Audience: Okay I think you got the gist little wonky I'm gonna ask the team to move it off I know you got on multiple things I'm sure something died, but you got the G Dang it. don't worry, you got it.
We got plenty of. um, let's go to next question because I want to get in a bunch more before I Get up. All right. let's keep it going Izzy What's good? What's going on my man? How we doing where you from? I'm in Massachusetts Are you a Patriot fan? Uh uh.
maybe a Jet fan? Yeah, Get out of here. Go ahead bro. No So my question had to do with uh, it was a Snapchat you did humility. Practical Steps: straightforward on humility.
That's a great question. It's complicated. Here's what I would say about humility: The practical First Steps is not to take yourself serious bro. I've accomplished a lot and I get a lot of love and when I tell you I don't think I'm special I Just don't.
Humility is understanding. You don't need anybody else's validation. That's an insight to humility. People understand I Believe the reason I'm humble is because I don't need your cheering or your booing.
Okay I think most people live life for outside people's validation. Period. That's their entire framework. The opposite sex, their mom, their dad, random people, followers.
That's why social media worked I knew it was going to work I knew that people wanted followers. Yeah! I Definitely struggle with that for sure. Bro. I'm telling you I'm appreciative of all the followers.
Tonight's a special night I'm clearly going to do this again because does everybody want me to do this again? Leave a comment twitch I Feel like this is something we should be doing. But bro, when I tell you with all the accolades and everything like I just don't think I'm that special I feel good about myself when I say I don't think I'm special I don't think I'm better than anyone. but I think I'm the best. People get confused when they hear me. Don't mix self-esteem with like Just because you have confidence doesn't mean you don't have humility. I have unlimited both, right? But I think humility comes from just realizing I'm gonna die one day and I'm gonna get my family is GNA really care given where I'm at in society. I'll probably get a good 24 hours on social media. People will share their favorite quote and their video when I'm 100 and they'll be over.
Okay, Oh yeah. I Think people that struggle with humility or insecure? Yeah, Period. Real Talk Al got your uh, your three books just came in the mail I Know you just did a quick commercial break, but I might as well. Uh, thank you bro.
Have 12 and a half out there for your fans. Thank you bro I Love you. You have any nieces or nephews I My nephew was just born two three months ago actually bro, you better get this for him. I'm gonna lose my mind if you don't I want this to be the most successful kids book of all time because on some real it's teaching people the middle.
The middle is Extreme Confidence and extreme humility. That's actually the middle got you dude. my nephew's he's gonna be hooked up I Got you got you! Love you bro! Hey love you too man. See you Let's keep it Kevin W Murray in the building from Tik Tok on Twitch right now I Love you I need all of you from Tik Tok to go over to Twitch Twitch.tv/ Garbe.
Get over here now now. what is Hi How are you? Oh my gosh. Hold on one second. Hold on one second.
Somebody just said humility is overrated I Just want to pull back on that. Humility is overrated. There he is. Inner Scorecard: I Could not disagree more.
Get his ass on the show. Pull him in. Inner Scorecard: we come in, we're gon debate this all right Destiny What's good? Hi um so nice to finally meet you. um I'm Destiny I Am the co-founder of Diamond Extensions I'm 31 I Recently moved from Charlotte to Jersey City so I'm right outside of Go Welcome! Thank you thank you! Um so we launched our business back in February 2022 and I currently work a full-time 9 to-5 and I'm completely burned out at this point.
um uh, just a lot of the workload. overall it's it's been kind of challenging to say the least. um and so that on top. So the job sucks.
Yeah, like I mean I've been in merchandising for eight years now and I think I'm just kind of like burnt out from it. Um I don't love it as much as I used to and do you think that's a product of whom you're working for and where? or just a general overall thing? or do you not know? I would say yeah. definitely where I'm working. Okay, so that's a big mistake. PE people make career changes without realizing they just don't like the team they're on. Football players don't retire just because they're on a shitty team, that they don't like the coach, they wait out their contract and they go sign with another team. Yeah, I mean I will say like I get to this point like every two years within my career like I start putting in like so much effort and then I just get burned out and so I don't know I'm definitely trying to like grow the business at a larger scale so that I can make it more of my my full-time job like I would love to just put this as my full-time job but what is this? uh the diamond extension? So we're a online hair Boutique and so right now we just strictly Ecommerce and we've been having some challenges trying to grow it at a larger scale. um with working like 9 to 5 so would just love your advice on tell me what you're doing from 6 to midnight Real talk? don't me? Destiny because I'm gonna get crazy on you.
Okay full transparency? Real no because you're a you're a young woman and so you gotta you gotta rest you gotta go out. You got to do I get it? But I need to hear your Monday through Friday No yeah so yeah I work 9 to5 and to be honest like I come home come on here. this might be the only time we ever talk yeah and I'm G to give you everything I got so don't come on this show and me and try to make it look good. Tell me the truth like most days I come home and I'll put additional hours into work which is why I'm burn out how of course yeah till like 10 some nights 11 and by that time like I'm done I'm tired and what time do you start? You get home at 5:30 you go like like real talk like real talk I Really need to hear it.
No I don't leave work until 5:30 It takes me like an hour. A little over an hour to get home. So I'll get home around like 6:30 Then what cook cook? Um and then I'll log back in I'll log back in I'll log back in around like 8ish. Maybe decompress the music? Watch some T whatever.
Yeah, I'll put Show on in the background, start it. you're look. nobody should be just working. Yeah and then so 8 to 10, 8 to 11, you're working on the thing and then you go to sleep and do it again.
Yeah, pretty much. And what about the weekends? The weekends is where I definitely spend a little bit more time working on the business. but I have been working like additional weekends as well for like my 9 to5 so that's where obviously the burnout is coming in and so I'm trying to find the balance to be able to. You can't quit yet because this other gig is not paying for your life.
Exactly exactly. So my point of view is how long you've been doing the side thing since 2022. BB 2022 It's a baby. Yeah, it's It's fairly fairly new. Yeah, it's a baby. Yeah, two years old is a baby I know I just want it to grow. No. but I don't know if you heard, but two-year-olds their pants still I mean what will you put it like that? Yeah, it's it's a baby.
I'm gonna put it like that. you got a two-year-old business is a baby. It shits its pants pretty yeah. Great analogy.
Good news. You're young as do you understand that? Yeah, yeah, do you I mean I Feel like at this is just not where I saw myself at 31. What the are you seeing yourself at 31 for I Just would. Was hoping to be a little bit further along than where I'm at right now.
Why? Because I feel like time is just so. That's all we have and you're gonna live for 70 more years. You're a 31 year old in 2024 with modern medicine exploding. you're going to live to 100.
Yeah, it feels like Tom just it. Yes. Watch this. Everybody in the chat Tell me how old you are right now.
Tell me how old you are in the chat right now and then tell me when you've figured it out. Yes, Listen, you're you're a kid. Here's what I'm hearing. Look at all these ages like you're just starting and we're on.
Twitch Look at these numbers. We're supposed to be all 16 but we're not. The problem. Here is how's the how's the buiness? Like in the first two years, it sounds like you got something going a little something.
I mean we we've had some sales but you know I definitely I'm I Want to grow it at a larger scale I Want to see how much how much social media are you putting out? not as much as I should to be honest I don't post enough? Yeah, How much? How many posts does your business post a week on social media? Don't lie because I'll look it up and I'll no I'm going to lie like barely enough like we'll post during the holidays and that's like it. Like I barely have enough. like I really don't have enough time. You saw Abby's face right now I'm G Tik Tok Abby's face is they know when I hear when I hear once a day I'm mad you said we once posted during Christmas you came on this show I'm out here talking about day trading attention I want you posting I want your business posting four to 20 times a day oh my God And you had the audacity to come on this show and said we posted on Thanksgiving once.
Oh I Feel blasted. Um yeah, yeah, that's like coming on a show and be like yo I don't know why I ain't got a six-pack yet and I'm like cool. Let's talk it out. How many times have you done ab exercises and you're like once but that's the thing.
like I'm trying to like balance that in my job and like trying to find you. Just sat here and told me you're on work three hours a day at night. The are you doing? Yeah, a lot of people work on side and they stand in front of the computer and try to make pretend they're doing something. A lot of people go to the gym and go on their phone on the treadmill and walk at a snail's pace and watch the Netflix show and make pretend they went to the gym for an hour where they didn't break a sweat. A lot of dudes go in the gym and start throwing around weights now that I'm educated. Big shout out to Mike Pante and Jordan SC I go to an Equinox once in a while because I'm traveling and I see dudes go for the vanity and start throwing around weights and doing curls swinging their whole body. They're not building their you can't move when you do your these are like this and this on some ego. they're in for an hour.
They're not accomplishing anything I'm worried that you're going on the computer three hours a night and bullshitting. Definitely not that like I'm So what are you doing? Just all of the tasks that I couldn't get through to out throughout the day. like what? Um, just because before you say anything, ready for this, yeah, you're gonna yeah Exactly like before you tell me anything, the number one task for a business that doesn't have enough customers is to Market yeah, what are we doing? If you don't have customers, you have nothing. Yeah, you're right.
Oh I know yeah. I may not know about a lot of things. This isn't a cooking show. This is not a show about how to get your lawn real green and healthy.
This is not a show about how to make perfect roasted coffee. this a Big Show and that's what I do and I know I'm right and I want this for you I'd rather you just relax and enjoy your evening so you're not burnt out than to not do the right strategy on the three hours that you're on. Yeah, yeah. I think I need to dedicate more time to like posting on social media so that we can you.
Maybe you have to post two posts a day for your business and post them on Tik Tok So people discover it because you might go viral. You might get more views Instagram's hard, but you should do it. Facebook's a monster Facebook Fan page. You should absolutely do that Pinterest Like you gotta Comm if you're giving me three hours a night I Need an hour for social? Okay and before you go into what next, like what do I post? you have a million businesses that are in your business.
Go look at their okay you I can do that I know you know I can see in your face I can do that customers. What the are you doing? That's like opening the score, having no customers and fixing the shelves I Know it sucks. Like nobody wants a store with no customers. well get some customers.
I'm gonna get some customers. Good luck Thanks Gary I Appreciate it I got you If you want to be on the show everybody, it's right here on. Twitch I Know there's 1400 of you on Tik Tok Proven my point By the way. right here live proven my point.
Started with 50 people on 1,400 Can you see it n you can't really see it? Yeah this is what goes on with Tik Tok As you can see top right corner 1400 are on right now I just looked over at first there was 150 people Tik Tok continues to grow. Watch this. How many of you have no idea who the I am right now? You're just this. just showed up and you're like what the say. Have no clue in the comments say have no clue in the comments. Have no there's me. see people don't even know I know it's a little blurry. See have no clue you saw one in that I Got it.
All of you should be on Tik Tok Live All of you should be on Twitch But Twitch is harder Tik Tok gives you Discovery Twitch you have to earn much harder. First time from Tik Tok Moonberry all of you on Tik Tok Get over to Twitch Right now Twitch.tv garbe if you want to be on the show. So this is inner scorecard. Who said humil? Oh awesome inner.
let's go in. What's inner? Can you hear me? Yes my friend. Where's your video? Listen Man! I'm on a desktop that doesn't have a camera I Apologize. Is that a problem? Not at all Brother: I Love your voice.
First of all, love you. Tell me the point where you where you from I'm from California So should I start telling you how you're wrong? or should you start telling me how I'm wrong. The good news is we're both. There is no right or wrong.
I actually was more interested in what your angle or perspective is on why you believe humility is overrated. Like what's what's your perspective on that? because I don't think it's a right or wrong game. I'm more curious about what your take is right on. Listen man.
I've been following you for years. um I mean I'm a fan I've been like the last couple years I haven't been totally in the loop. but I mean you've got it right. One thing I love about you is that you only teach what you've done so like you don't give Theory You know what I'm saying like that's huge and the people that are listening that's such a good point deal.
What's your real name? Tom Tom First of all, I knew I kind of like intuitively liked your comment I love the way you came on and for your opening line to be that I really I'm very impressed. meaning thank you for seeing that you're absolutely right. The reason I have so much conviction and it was funny how I just was with that young lady and said this is not a show about making your long nice or coffee. You're absolutely right bro.
I'm petrified about talking I haven't lived because I don't know the answer unless I did it. Thank you for seeing that. Love it dude. Love it.
