In this episode, Chris sits down with entrepreneur and creator Dan Martell for a deep dive into personal brand building, creative discipline, and the decade-long journey behind Dan’s explosive growth.

Dan unpacks the pivotal dinner conversation that pushed him from “reluctant creator” to going fully pro, ultimately adding millions of followers and hundreds of millions of monthly views. He discusses the emotional hurdles of talking on camera, the evolution from a traditional marketing mindset to a full media company, and the mindset shifts required to produce consistently at scale.
