“It’s impossible to move forward while staying the same”. That’s what motivated Tyler Babin, a 25 year old up & coming filmmaker, who hustled his way into his dream job only to leave it to pursue the riskier thing, an even bigger bet - on himself. I’ve had literally hundreds of requests over the years to have someone on the show who isn’t Richard Branson or Brene Brown or {fill in the blank star}…ie. host someone who hasn't "made it big" and is, instead, on the come-up themselves…someone from within our very own community who has been listening for years, connecting dots, gleaning knowledge and is now taking major action on that. Well THIS is Tyler’s story. If you’ve followed my pal Gary Vaynerchuk, it’s likely you’ve actually seen some of Tyler’s work. For the last 3-4 years, he’s been a whirlwind tour traveling the world with Gary, shooting photo + video, creative directing projects at Vayner… and it all started right here on this show nearly 8 years ago. This episode goes full circle, friends. Also - instead of the usual studio conversation, Tyler and I recorded the show while grabbing a burger & margarita just around the corner from CreativeLive in Seattle. It’s a bit loud at times, but I think the ‘fly on the wall’ experience is absolutely worth it. It’s a personal, raw, authentic conversation. Please DM me on insta, @ me on twitter and let me know what you think. In this episode:
what it takes to start from ZERO. No skills, no clarity - just a dream
How to listen to your intuition
Why saying yes can send you on an adventure worth pursing
Tyler’s new gig at the Adobe Creative Residency, an award which pays him to simply create art
How to know when to quit something that once served you well
and more ;)
