On today’s episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I sit down with Dr. Aliza Pressman, we discuss the critical aspects of parenting and the importance of finding balance. We emphasize the concept of “meeting in the middle” in both parenting and business partnerships, advocating for avoiding extremes and finding a balanced approach.

Key themes include the role of empathy and the dangers of societal extremes, the necessity of setting boundaries for children, and the significance of parental intentions. We also explore the impact of social media on parenting and the need to redefine success as peace of mind rather than financial or social achievements. This engaging conversation offers valuable advice for parents and entrepreneurs, highlighting the importance of balance, empathy, and long-term goals.

Gary Vaynerchuk is a serial entrepreneur and serves as the Chairman of VaynerX, the CEO of VaynerMedia, and the Creator & CEO of VeeFriends. Gary is considered one of the leading global minds on what’s next in culture, business, and the internet.

Known as “GaryVee,” he is described as one of the most forward thinkers in business. He acutely recognizes trends and patterns early to help others understand how shifts in consumer attention impact the realities of the business world today. Gary’s approach sits at the intersection of business and pop culture. He keenly understands how to bring brand relevance to the forefront. He is a prolific angel investor with early investments in companies like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Venmo, Snapchat, Coinbase, and Uber.

This year, Gary unveiled his seventh book, “Day Trading Attention” where he provides fresh insights into navigating the modern social media landscape. Gary’s expertise guides readers on harnessing underpriced attention channels in the digital age. He emphasizes mastering storytelling in these arenas and highlights the “TikTokification of Social Media,” where content relevance surpasses follower counts. Businesses can leverage this shift to enhance their brand and boost sales. “Day Trading Attention” equips readers with essential skills to succeed in today’s dynamic digital world. Gary also announced his first children’s picture book, based on his VeeFriends characters, titled “Meet Me in the Middle” (set to be published on July 16, 2024). The picture book, which will prominently feature two VeeFriends characters, Eager Eagle and Patient Pig, delves into the emotional elements essential for nurturing children’s empathy – a crucial skill for their future success.

Gary is an entrepreneur at heart – he builds businesses. Today, he helps Fortune 1000 brands leverage consumer attention through his full-service advertising agency, VaynerMedia, which has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Mexico City, London, Amsterdam, Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo, Bangkok, and Kuala Lumpur. VaynerMedia is part of the VaynerX holding company, which also includes Eva Nosidam Productions, Gallery Media Group, The Sasha Group, VaynerSpeakers, VaynerCommerce, and Tingley Lane Trading. Gary is the Co-Founder of VaynerSports, VCR Group, VaynerWatt, ArtOfficial, Resy, and Empathy Wines. He guided Resy and Empathy to successful exits — which he later sold to American Express and Constellation Brands, respectively.

In addition to running multiple businesses, Gary documents his daily life as a CEO through his social media channels, which have more than 44 million followers and garner over 300 million monthly impressions/views across all platforms.
