When you're reinforcing positivity to kids around grades,

their athleticism, or how attractive they are,

it makes them vulnerable because their self-worth becomes in that

and all of those three things kind of change over time.

Most kids don't play professional sports.

Totally. Most people realize somewhere around 23 that, uh-oh, grades mean nothing in real life.

And if you're fighting for like looking beautiful, it's a constant game of insecurity because all of us age. So to your point if you're complimenting kids on their energy their ambitions their kindness their grit and the words coming out of their mouth

This is the Gary V audio experience.

V. V. What is Good, really excited about today's podcast.

I think it's always fun to understand people's journeys,

use it as a reference point.

I know my journey resonates for some,

but some can't connect because variables are different.

Sometimes you need to have the person look like you

or come from the places that you came from.

And so on our forever journey of finding

interesting people to have conversations with,

we have a really good one here today that I think is going to work for a lot of this audience

I'm going to let her introduce herself and give you a little bit of her background and then I'm going to fire away

with some really fun questions and try to tap in a little bit into what and why and how

and so Chris how are you so great to be here Gary thank you of course I'm Karissa
