Summary
In this episode of Tea with GaryVee, I talk about whether AI is taking jobs — or actually creating more opportunities for people who learn to use it. We cover why fear is normal, why it always shows up during every major technological shift, and how dwelling on yesterday stops you from attacking today’s opportunities. I also share advice on gaining clarity when you feel financially or emotionally stuck, when it’s the right moment to go all in on your side hustle, how to make employees feel valued beyond money, and answer tactical questions about scaling and expanding a business. Hope you enjoy!
