From 15K to 57K: The Power of Vision, Faith & Hard Work

In this special episode of Decoding 2 Sides of the System, I’m celebrating a huge personal milestone — crossing 50,000+ subscribers on YouTube! 🎉

I recorded this episode straight from Cancun, Mexico 🇲🇽, where I took some time to reflect, recharge, and show gratitude to every single one of you who helped make this possible. From 15K last year to over 57K now… it’s been nothing short of a blessing.

This isn’t just a podcast — it’s my story, my struggle, my faith, and my growth. I talk about the solo grind, learning how to manage money, building discipline, and staying focused when no one else sees your vision. I also share real lessons from Kobe Bryant, Stevie Baggs Jr., and most importantly, what God’s plan taught me through it all.

If you’ve ever felt like giving up, or if you’re still grinding toward your goals — this episode is a reminder that your time is coming.

This episode dives deep into what it really means to stay committed to the process without being emotionally attached to the results.

It’s about showing up with the same energy, same discipline, and same drive whether or not the recognition is there. Too often, motivation is tied to validation: likes, comments, views, or approval from others. But real growth comes when the work continues in silence.

This conversation breaks down the mindset needed to keep pushing when no one’s watching, to stay consistent when the applause hasn’t come, and to lead without waiting for permission. It’s a reminder that extraordinary results are built through ordinary habits, done consistently. Whether it’s building a brand, becoming a better man, or chasing long-term goals, this is about doing the hard work that leads to greatness.

No shortcuts, no excuses—just discipline, discomfort, and the daily grind that shapes something different.

Build Great Habits: The Foundation of Success

In this episode, we explore the importance of building great habits and how they shape your success in life. Habits are the foundation of everything you achieve, from personal growth to professional accomplishments. Whether it’s getting up early, staying consistent, or finishing what you start, these small actions compound over time and help you become the best version of yourself.

We also talk about the difference between being “known” and being “great.” In today’s social media-driven world, many people chase temporary approval or attention, but true greatness comes from doing the hard work behind the scenes. It’s about staying disciplined, investing in yourself, and building a life that stands the test of time.

For younger viewers, this is a call to action: Start building good habits early, whether it’s studying, staying committed to your goals, or working on your craft every single day. And for everyone, this episode is a reminder that greatness is not about flashing success; it’s about creating a stable, fulfilling life. Remember, success comes from consistency, accountability, and pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone.

If you’re ready to level up your mindset and focus on what truly matters, this episode is for you. Don’t just aim to be known, aim to be great.

In this deeply reflective episode of Decoding 2 Sides of the System, I open up about my personal journey through loss, trauma, and finding purpose. Growing up without a father and later facing the heartbreak of losing my aunt left me grappling with grief and anger. These experiences could have broken me, but they became the catalyst for discovering the power of mental health and therapy.

I talk about the challenges of being a young African American man in a single-parent household, the emotional struggles of seeing my mother with other partners, and how I managed to work through feelings of anger and frustration. My aunt's death hit me hard, pushing me into a dark place of regret and guilt for not saying everything I wanted to. It was through this pain that I sought therapy, where I learned to heal, grow, and eventually pursue a degree in psychology.

In this episode, I share how therapy helped me discover my purpose—helping others confront their mental health struggles. I reflect on the importance of expressing emotions, managing grief, and shifting from a mindset of “Why me?” to “Why not me?” I want to inspire others who may be struggling, letting them know that their pain can lead to purpose and growth.

Whether you're dealing with loss, feeling stuck, or looking for guidance on your mental health journey, this episode serves as a reminder that struggles don’t define you—they are stepping stones to growth and healing.
