Who is Gary Vee? (Gary Vaynerchuk) - And why he is a BREAKOUT from The Norm💥

Updated: Jul 4, 2023

Odds are you have heard the name, Gary Vee. More specifically, Gary Vaynerchuk. Since I started my entrepreneurial journey eons ago, the name Gary Vee was on the periphery of my consciousness. The manner in which he harnesses the power of social media and understands the nuances of the entrepreneurial journey ceases to amaze me. Let's face it-he is crushing it.

With millions funneling into all things Sasha group, Vayner Media, and all of his glorious endeavors- Gary preaches kindness. The king of all things marketing and business leadership uses kindness as an underestimated currency. Simply, he understands that being kind is non-negotiable.



Gary goes even further to espouse that kindness is the ultimate strength as warriors in buisness.


In a world of cutthroat wheelers and dealers, I have to wonder are these people truly living their best life. Being rich is one thing, and being fulfilled is another. I often am met with money-hungry clout chasers that want one thing--your soul.


It is refreshing when someone with unimaginable wealth still embraces a humble approach to building quality relationships. My entrepreneurial lens speaks to success being built on quality relationships as opposed to transactional relationships.


Who Is Gary Vee and Why Is He Crushing It?


Gary Vaynerchuk is a highly recognized entrepreneur, author, and internet personality who has become a thought leader for entrepreneurs around the world. Through his various business ventures and motivational content, Vaynerchuk has established himself as a leading voice in the business world. In this blog, we will explore the top reasons why Gary Vaynerchuk is a thought leader for entrepreneurs.

While I continue to build my empire, I remind myself daily it is to be built on a solid foundation of credible collaborations and authentic relationships. I am continually assaulted with fierce pitches that are focused on monetization (OHHHH and I get monetization- believe me, we can not sustain a business on looks alone).


However, money is not enough-our legacy is what we need to strive for.
