In this episode I talk with the COO of Superbid.io Maxwell Gross about the future of where everything is headed with NFTs. After the success of NBA Topshot, Maxwell and his team discovered the potential for NFTs and the demand there is for moments with not just athletes but also with celebrities and influencers. They were able to secure influencers like Logan Paul who has released his own NFT line and collections and has partnered with Superbid.io to launch his NFT moments on that platform as well. Not only has Superbid partnered with influencers like Logan Paul but also they have made connections with other celebrities and influencers whose audience will buy their moments immortalized as NFTs and can have special access to them as well as to special experiences with their favorite influencers. Superbid.io will be an application you can use on your phone to bid for moments with celebrities and influencers who will post moments as NFTs that you can bid on and purchase.

1:00:09In this episode I talk to Ben Chung who is a cofounder of Kinjaz, cofounder of Hitbeats app, and founder of the Chosun clothing brand. He used to be a member of the Jabbawockeez back in the day when they changed the world through dance when they won the America's Got Talent show. He shares his unconventional journey as an Korean American of making a living through dance and turning his love for dancing into a full-time business. He started off learning Kpop dance moves, performed at his church talent performance, and eventually ended up joining dance groups that have made an international impact in the dance community by showing that dance teams can be the centerpiece of a show instead of just being back up dancers for a famous artist or musician. Ben shares how his curiosity and ambition has led him down a path that he ended up creating his own path that doesn't fit the mold of getting a degree and a job after school. He shares how it's important to learn the things that you are curious about, discover what you're passionate about, and keep pursuing your path and calling in life. Ben shares how it's important to take risks to learn the things that you are passionate about and the path to making money will open up for you since you can make money doing anything nowadays. Hope Ben's story encourages you to find your own path in life, forge your own future, and live a life with no regrets. We regret the things that we didn't do more than the things that we did when we grow old.

1:11:09In this episode I talk to Anthony Mooz who is the CEO and founder of Ageless AI, a company that uses AI to diagnose patients in neurology and orthopedics so neurologists and care teams can assist those with Parkinson's disease as well as other diseases. Anthony shares about his journey as how he was a hacker before he even got into building this AI technology to solve problems for those with Parkinson's disease and how he has used those skills to build what he has built today. Anthony's company Ageless AI is one of the companies that the Harvard Wyss Institute is going to work with for biomedical and technological advances. Also Ageless AI will implement AI to be able to track and treat diseases quicker and more efficiently. We talk about how AI will be used in the future of healthcare, automobile industry, and daily life uses and how that will change the way we interact with each other and live our daily lives. There might not even be a need for driver licenses in the future because cars will be autonomous and self-driving which we already see happening with Tesla's self-driving feature. Also we talk about the state of AI in other countries like China and how it is being used to detect and warn citizens from breaking the law such as jay-walking. As more and more AI is going to be incorporated into our daily lives, we will see more and more automation and changes coming to the point where a lot of jobs will be obsolete and we will see an increasing number of robots and automation in our lives. We also go into talks about the difference between specific and general AI and how there will be types of AI that will affect the way we do things like agriculture, healthcare, automobile industry, and so many others.

In this episode I talk with Dr. Grace Lee who is a neuroscience based coach who has studied the brain and how it works. Now she is using her knowledge and expertise to teach other coaches how to monetize their knowledge and get paid on a recurring base with what they know. You'll hear in this episode how she has been able to turn her knowledge into income and also hear her story of how she came from a life of having been an orphan to creating the life of her dreams through perseverance, hard work, and patience. We also go into topics such as how do drugs affect your brain, what are the things that trigger your brain to work more efficiently, and how can we optimize ourselves so that we can have the best results possible in our work and our life.

In this episode I talk with Cherry Tung who is a wealth coach. Most of her clients are corporate workers wanting to create additional income streams that align with their passion and expertise. Her approach in coaching is rooted in her personal experience as she created 16 income streams, invested multiple 6 figures in the stock market and reached 7 figure net worth for herself by the age of 25. And she did all that while working a full-time corporate job! This goes to show that if you really want something you can achieve it. Even though there were times Cherry felt alone, lost, and even depressed at times, she didn't let that stop her from building the life that she wanted for herself and her future self. No matter what situation or circumstance you find yourself in, you can always change that situation and it's never permanent. Instead of blaming your circumstances or people who weren't there for your, abandoned you, or might not have had had your backs, learn to depend and rely on yourself, love yourself, and start to become the victor not the victim of your life. Instead of letting your fears and doubts get the best of you, follow people on social media who can inspire you, lift you up, and give you the hope to go on another day, find beauty in life, and design the life of your dreams because we have that freedom especially in America. I hope that you're inspired by Cherry's story not only because she learned how to make money to get out of her financial circumstances but also because she chose to never give up and gave herself permission to go after what she truly wanted in life which is freedom. If you feel stuck financially definitely reach out to Cherry on Instagram @cherrytung.co and learn from her coaching and if you ever need help growing your social media you can message me @ray.ahn and checkout my free eBook on personal branding if you want to learn how to start building your personal brand on Instagram.

1 Ricky Gutierrezz - Growing a 900k YouTube Channel on Daytrading and Making Millions in his 20's 46:17
In this episode I talk with Ricky Gutierrezz who is a full-time daytrader who has built one of the largest YouTube channels teaching people on how to daytrade. We talk about how he has sacrificed his teenage years and early 20's building, grinding, and creating a digital empire where now he is teaching people how to make profits daily using his trading strategies. In his mid 20's Ricky has amassed a fortune from daytrading and is helping people eager to learn how to do the same thing. Some things that we talked about were what was the reason for his drive which was to provide for himself and his future family and to build something meaningful that can help others to grow and develop as entrepreneurs. He shares an experience where he felt like he was working so much that he just felt cold and empty inside and wished that he spent his younger years having fun, playing with friends, and spending time with family. He shares how he worked so much that he often forgot to sleep enough and didn't have proper health but now because of all his hard work, he is reaping the benefits of that today. The moral of the story is that you will face challenges in life but it's how you deal with them that will determine who you are. Ricky used to post YouTube videos even when nobody would engage with them or view them and has adjusted his content to cater to what his audience wants to learn about. You don't have to be great to start but you have to start to be great. Whether that's starting your first podcast, writing that first blog, or making that first video for YouTube just get started on creating that Instagram page for your business, building that website, or investing in that coach to get you to where you want to be.

In this episode, I get interviewed by fellow podcaster Chris Hsu who asks me questions about myself and why I left med school to pursue my own path in life to building a podcast, growing millions of followers on Instagram, and built my own business coaching others in building their following and personal brands on Instagram. I talk about why I created my own path in life because I felt like there was so much more that I could do with my life, so much more impact I can make, and much more I can do leaving school and educating myself rather than just following the traditional route of schooling and getting a 9 to 5 job. I also talk about how I grew, built, and sold accounts for businesses and personal brands. I also talk about the factors that help to make a post go viral, some ways to growth hack Instagram, and the ways I was able to build over a million followers on Instagram. Hopefully this video helps you get to know a bit more about me and my story, inspires you to find your own path in life, and help you make the changes necessary to your life so that you can make an impact on this world and people will remember you for the legacy that you leave behind. Everyone wants to be remembered, get people's attention, and most of all leave a legacy that people will remember you by.

In this episode, I talk with Myron Golden who has sold 55k to $1 mill plus packages teaching people how to sell on stage and has even worked with people like Russell Brunson and other famous entrepreneurs. He talks about the importance of following certain principles in business and how just like there's the law of gravity in place, there's certain principles in business that help people succeed. He shares how he has learned a lot of his principles from the Bible and describes them as God's automation. Myron gives the example of sowing and reaping and how you don't always reap what you sow immediately but it takes time. He shares how every thought, every word, every dollar, and every action we take is sowing something into the universe and what we sow is actually going to reap something great later on not immediately. Myron talks about how when every thing we do, say, and think is an act of sowing and how we need to be wise in how we live our lives because we will eventually reap whatever we sow into the world. He has so much wisdom and has shared so much in this episode that you can use for your business as well especially if you want to sell high ticket coaching. More than that though, Myron has so much wisdom and there's this one quote he says "You cannot teach what you do not know, you cannot lead where you will not go." We also talk about the importance of being resourceful and how important it is to turn your ideas into wealth.

1 Anastasia Chudomekhova - Pursuing the Dream of Being an International Professional Violinist from Russia 34:09
In this episode, I talk with Anastasia Chudomekhova who is a Russian violinist born in Yalta, Crimea and has started playing violin at the age of 7. She has studied at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels and is pursuing her dream of playing professionally as a violinist. She talks about how difficult it was growing up without money at a young age and how she was very focused on making money so that her family can no longer live in poverty. She has found her passion through playing violin and at a very young age she got recognition as she started working with awesome soundmakers from Russia and brands like Sony. She also played for the president of Czech Republic, Italian and Russian ministers as well as others. An important thing that she talks about is creating a vision board and focusing on the five main areas that matter such as love, relationships, family, career, and personal development. She recommends creating a vision board and focusing your positive energy towards that vision just like how Walt Disney imagined a place where kids can play, have fun, and enjoy time with their families. What is your vision and what are you willing to sacrifice to see that happen? For Anastasia, it was the dream of being a professional violinist and is now playing in front of royal families. For you, there might be a vision inside that you cannot get rid of no matter how long you try to run away from it, and I encourage you to start building a vision board so that your dreams can become a reality. Obviously you will need to make money too in the process, but really start thinking about what you want to do for the rest of your life because that is what most of your life will consist of and if you do it just for a paycheck, then you are not really living your life to the fullest potential nor are you living a truly satisfied life. Be the creator of your destiny and like Jim Carrey says in this video “So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality.” I pray and hope that you choose a life based on love not fear and that you leave your legacy and your mark on this Earth so that you and your accomplishments will be remembered on this Earth even after you are gone. Please subscribe, share, and let me and Anastasia know what your thoughts are from this interview; we check all our DM's and also she is in need of a DJ so if you can help her with that send her a message! Hope you were encouraged and blessed by this episode and if you were, please leave a review and if you ever have any questions or want to talk to me directly just DM me at @ray.ahn and I'll respond (don't be shy). Would love to support what you're doing and help you on your journey to achieving your goals and vision in life. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/socialray/support…

1:01:44In this episode, I talk with entrepreneur Jaiden Vu who is a high school dropout and shares his struggle of leaving home as a senior in high school to working minimum wage learning to be a chef. He shares how he had times when he felt like he had depression, was struggling to make ends meet since he was trying to make it on his own, and how difficult it was trying to pursue his passion of becoming a chef while trying to pay all the bills. He talks about how he had to live couch to couch at friends' houses until he met someone who showed him their paycheck and he was surprised to see at how much they were making. He began to learn sales and start to sell products and services to people and is now a high performance sales coach who teaches others on how to close more deals. If you've been wanting to learn how to be better at sales, you can checkout his work at blackpeached.com and also his Instagram @jaidenvu for more sales tips and trainings. What stood out to me about this interview was that Jaiden had to overcome his own limiting self beliefs, low self esteem, and recreate himself to be able to sell himself to others and a lot of times, it's our mindset that prevents us from dreaming bigger, going after our goals, and living our life to the fullest potential. I hope you are encouraged from this episode and can use what you learn from this to better yourself, build your business, and go after your purpose and passion in life. Jaiden also talks about how he had to leave his passion to pursue profit but how it is still important to go after what will truly make you feel fulfilled in life while also making money to be able to provide for yourself and your family.

Swing trading is a style of trading that attempts to capture short- to medium-term gains in a stock (or any financial instrument) over a period of a few days to several weeks. He used to be in the Marines and after finishing his service, he found a mentor who taught him how to swing trade so he didn't have to trade his time for money at a 9 to 5 job. Jamar James is a well known trader and crypto currency influencer. Known for identifying trading and crypto currency trends before they happen, Jamar earned the nickname, Digital Currency Guy. Jamar talks about his journey as an entrepreneur and how watching his mother work so hard just to pay the bills and rent made him seek for other ways to generate income and he found that through trading. Now he wants to help others achieve financial independence through trading as well and you can checkout his course and content at www.dcgmastermind.com Hope his story encourages you to find ways to discover financial independence for yourself and continue to keep finding ways to grow and develop your skills as an entrepreneur.

If you're interested in learning more then you can go checkout @theseanspector or send him a message to learn more about what he does. Sean also shares the mindsets of what it takes to be an entrepreneur. Many times he said his friends and family would doubt and discourage him saying "Sean's just trying to live the dream" or make it seem like his dreams are unbelievable or too far off to achieve. But Sean says his turning point was when he surrounded himself with like-minded entrepreneurs who were also building their business and dream together. It really helps to be part of a community and support group that is focused on doing the same thing even when others around you might not understand and that's why it's so important to be part of a mastermind or small group where everyone is achieving their goals together and keeping each other accountable. If you aren't part of a mastermind or community, you can apply to be part of my coaching program where over 90 days you will have a support group and community helping you move forward with building your personal brand and online presence together. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/socialray/support…

Hey guys, Before we start this episode I want to let you know of a special coaching program that I'm hosting that will help you build 10k followers in the next 90 days on Instagram. In this group online coaching program, you'll learn how to grow, build, and monetize your social media brand and presence and learn personally from me the steps that it takes to build a great online personal brand presence for you and your brand. You will be part of a private special Facebook group with other members looking to grow their personal brand and presence and will also have access to me and others in a weekly zoom call for 12 weeks. If you've been wanting to grow your presence online, build social credibility, and make more of an impact on others online through your coaching and services, then going online using social media is the way to go. Nowadays people go off by their "digital impression" of you before they even meet you for their "first impression" of who you are. Without building your digital impression and presence, you will not have a way of standing out from your other competitors and those who do the same thing you do. I will personally teach you how to create an amazing digital impression by making viral content; build a following; increase engagement; and create a community around your page so more people will want to work with you and your profile. If you're interested in learning more about this private online group coaching, just send a message to me @ray.ahn or fill out this application if you think you're ready to apply. - In this episode I talk with my fellow entrepreneur and friend Kelin Balian about the mindset shifts that need to take place as you begin to journey into entrepreneurship realm and also the different ways an entrepreneur vs an employee thinks about risk and reward relationships. Kelin compares entrepreneurs to people who are like motorcross riders who consistently go on these low and high jumps (referring to low and high moments in business as an entrepreneur) and though some may feel like how are they even completing one jump, entrepreneurs go on completing multiple jumps in their journey of building a business. Most of the times, entrepreneurs are built because they cannot fit into the status quo, they want to create a life of freedom for themselves and their families, and most importantly they want to be their own boss instead of having someone tell them what to do all the time. Entrepreneurs truly are a different breed of people in that they don't wait for payday for them to get paid but go out there and solve problems that in turn leads to creating more income and revenue. If you yourself are an entrepreneur or have been looking to dive into entrepreneurship, I'd highly suggest you to read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki or to start getting into self-development tapes and workshops by people like Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins, and Earl Nightingale. Also a big reason why I'm a fan of entrepreneurship is that you get to decide your fate and destiny instead of relying on someone else to give you a paycheck after you complete building their dreams. At the end of the day, it's all about becoming the best version of yourself whether it's through entrepreneurship or some other avenue of self-improvement and with Kelin we talk about the importance of establishing your own contract to yourself, basically a statement declaring who you are no matter how difficult or trying the situation or circumstance you're facing might seem. You can make an "I AM a ..(traits).. Leader" as a way to powerfully assert and declare who you are to yourself and the universe no matter what situation you may find yourself in.

In this episode, I talk to Jorge Contreras who is a multifamily investor in 1200+ units and teaches people how to rent out Airbnb properties with no experience and money. Jorge came from a background of drug dealing, gangs, and has seen his dad pass away from getting involved with the wrong kinds of activities. He did not want the repeat the same story as his dad so he began to separate himself from the wrong types of people who weren't being a positive influence to him and hung around with people who had a mentality to be better and achieve more with their life. Not everyone will want to rise up from their circumstances and be an example for others like Jorge was for his younger siblings and those in his community. But if you want a higher quality of life for yourself, you need to have the mindset to grow, surround yourself with people better and smarter than you, and continue to put in the work everyday to be a better version of yourself. Checkout the interview to learn the mindset and mentality Jorge had to rise above a circumstances of drug dealing and gangs to owning multiple real estate properties, raising a beautiful family, and contributing back to society.

In this episode, I talk with my friend Edward Woo who founded his clothing company Wooji.us and is an Asian-American clothing brand that takes a lot of their inspiration from anime and Asian culture for their designs. Edward started his company by putting a couple grand on his credit card to start his clothing company and since then has been able to work with top influencers to represent his clothing brand. He grew up in an immigrant home family and he always had a desire to start his own company so he can make enough money to provide for his family, create an impact in culture, and make a positive difference in the world. Edward is in his early 20's and is just beginning his journey of exploring what he can create and produce to make an impact in Asian-American culture and society. I hope you learn from Edward's story that anybody can make it, all it takes is belief in yourself, the drive to go after what you desire, and to give 100% of your effort into the dreams and desires that God has placed in your heart. I believe that we are all capable of achieving great things and it just starts by you taking the first step to yourself, your ideas, and taking the leap to follow your dreams.

In this episode I talk with my friend Azeem who runs the Instagram page @foundconscious and how he was able to develop a following by posting content about things that not many people are aware about such as the rolling out of 5G, Neuralink, and how certain foods and habits can affect us. What I learned from my talk with Azeem is that he has had his own fair share of troubles with his own parents having health problems, being introverted during school, and battling with fear and depression. Azeem talks about how he had to overcome his fear of putting his face out, start speaking out for what he believes in, and to tackle his fears head-on if he were to live a life that is fulfilling, happy, and meaningful. Azeem and I are both in our 20's and have been proactively creating and designing the life that we want for ourselves, our families, and the world around us. I believe we are all capable of making a positive impact in the world, and the change starts with ourselves. We need to be willing to take responsibility for our lives, make the changes necessary to get there be it financially/emotionally/relationally/spiritually, and stop blaming other people like our parents for not having the life that we want to live. If Azeem never took the courageous step of coming out of his shell of being introverted, he would never have created @foundconscious and be able to impact the hundreds of thousands of lives that he's doing through social media. Just like Azeem and I, you are also capable of creating a great life for yourself, your family, and those around you but you have to be willing to make the necessary changes in your mindset, beliefs, values, and actions in order to create that life. I hope you are encouraged from this interview with Azeem, that you take action on what you hear, and that you apply the valuable lessons you learn into your life for your success and happiness.

He has exited on several companies already, has learned how to make products go viral through influencer marketing, and from his Tumblr famous days has developed a network on social media that extends to hundreds of millions of followers. Jason talks about his journey as an entrepreneur and how he used to teach himself various things online because he had free time while his parents were busy working. During his time when he wasn't helping out with the family business, he spent time learning online, making Internet friends, and learning about American culture from the memes he saw and the media that was produced by Americans. When Jason immigrated to the states, he came with an understanding of America based on watching media like the TV show "Friends" and consuming social media content. And he eventually came out with his own product called the Holy Meme Bible which describes all the popular memes of the year and packaged it into a coloring book so kids can discover the popular memes that has shaped a lot of society's culture and trends. Jason is a genius at influencer marketing and has learned to master making products go viral through utilizing influencers and trends. He is a self-taught entrepreneur and his advice for those wanting to become an entrepreneur is to listen to your intuition, take risks even if it means failing, and never give up in the pursuit of your purpose and passion in life. Everyone has a gift and talent they can contribute to the world but it's up to you to find it.

In this episode, I talked with my friend Esa Fung who is 26 years old like me and started off on Vine making funny skits around Asian culture and mannerisms. He first blew up when he showed his mom a failed math test score and she went off on him and since then has found his niche in the Asian American market. He was part of the 1 million followers Viners club with popular influencers like King Bach, LeLe Pons, and others. Fortunately Esa was able to take his following onto other platforms like Instagram and YouTube so when Vine shut down he still had his remaining followers left. What most people might not know about Esa that he shared in this interview was how he used to be bullied a lot for being Asian but instead of letting these insults and hate get to him, he used them as ideas to create humorous content and skits around them. He mentioned that as someone involved in the social media space, he gets a lot of hate comments and negativity but he said the only way to get through it is if you have tough skin and keep persisting despite what other people may say or comment about you. As long as you know what you're doing is fulfilling and helping those around you in some shape or form, you shouldn't let other's opinions deflect you from your path in life. That part resonated with me because sometimes as someone who is trying to do something different and create content to help others, it can seem as if your work is not doing much or is not getting the kinds of numbers that you see other influencers and content creators getting. However it's in those times that you need to ask yourself why you started doing what you're doing in the first place, was it for the views and for people's praise or was it for something more meaningful than that. Hope you're able to take a bit of your time to listen to this interview with Esa not only so you can learn about social media and how to grow but also to ask yourself what it is you truly want to do with your life and whether you are making the necessary actions and commitments to making that a reality. Nothing worth having comes easy and it won't be easy for you to get off the well-worn path to do something different, but you have to trust in yourself and intuition to lead you down the path that you know to be right for you even if you might not have all the answers. Hope you enjoy this interview with Esa Fung and you can follow him on Instagram @esafung , on YouTube as EsaFungtastic , and on Twitter @esafung You can also find me on Instagram @ray.ahn , on YouTube , and signup for my emails to stay up to date on the latest updates, interviews, and advice on social media. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/socialray/support…
