This was such a refreshing episode. He wasn't very philosophical, rather, he keeps it very human and genuine. He didn't choose to give ideal answers, he spoke his truth about the real world.

Agreed - I prefer business conversations, rather than the 'Gurus' who in reality, most of the time, have just managed to convince the world they are the best, without having any quantifiable evidence

I think there's a kind of tenacious focus that many people will never understand. It doesnt always make sense to the 3rd party, others often view us as extreme, family doesnt understand why you can't be happy in a 9-5.. it's a lonely road but that's just the price for the kind of intellectual satisfaction this kind of sole business ignition and success requires.

Absolutely love the way how he is so honest, humble and down to earth. We need more guests like him❤

I'm really struggling with energy & motivation right now. This video hit home for me big time. Thanks for posting!!

I am not trying to be rude or negative, but as a freedom lover, I really do think it's important to understand how this works, if we want to evolve as human beings. Basically what he is saying at the start, is that he is still going after the childhood pride he felt when other children were impressed with the car that brought him to school. That is a childish notion, which is often cleverly translated into a more mature story when people grow up, but it's still the same thing. And those who have a different kind of childhood experiences, may very well not have the right subconscious patterns to become rich like him, and following his example will not work for them. My point is, that the most (so-called) successful people (within our current success paradigms) are often driven by childhood notions and traumas that have turned into subconscious goto patterns, just like the rest of the people. The only difference is that successful people have learned these specific behavioral patterns based on their specific childhood experiences, but the principles are the same. Two things drive them (and the vast majority), namely unconscious instinctive fears and desires. Both drives make them prisoners in the sense that they don't know how to escape from them. Their (moments of) happiness still depend on the results of their childhood notions, which means they are actually only trying to relive the past over and over again, while they are unable to make truly free choices in the here and now. The idea of financial freedom, for example, is a kind of pseudo-freedom that depends on your financial circumstances, while inner freedom does not depend on any circumstances. People chase after these often difficult to reach goals, only to find out that the fear and desire impulses that got them there never stop. It will never be enough because the pleasure it gives is temporary. It's very much like a drug addiction; the more often you get high, the less the effect it has on you, and the more desperate the addict becomes for a new high. Most drug addictions are the consequences of childhood trauma (see Gabor Maté). The addiction is a kind of running away from the inner trauma through external means, which in many ways resembles the 'I wanna be rich', or 'I wanna be famous' addiction, for example. The inner pseudo-needs created during our childhood, are not actual needs anymore when we are adults, but they still feel that way to us because of our lack of true awareness when it comes to our childhood experiences. True freedom lies in (regularly) bringing these subconscious patterns and their accompanying emotions to full awareness without judgment or engagement, and learn to not depend on them anymore for you happiness here and now.

@@suubisss I briefly explained the general way in the last paragraph: "True freedom lies in (regularly) bringing these subconscious patterns and their accompanying emotions to full awareness without judgment or engagement, and learn to not depend on them anymore for you happiness here and now." This should be taken as learning a different way of going through life, and not as a thing you do a couple of weeks to get rid of something. How this works best for the individual is a different story. This also depends on the particular childhood issues that one is dealing with. A more general and quite accessible approach is offered by Eckhart Tolle, for example, but it will not be the best way for everyone. His 'method' is based on finding and experiencing the core awareness from which the mind can be observed without judgment or engagement. The advantage of his explanations is that it tends to come with a sense of humor which makes it much lighter and bearable to go through the process. Another advantage is that it can offer more inner peace directly from the start.

I like the way they use clips of his actual life in this episode. Makes it more relatable and creates a better sense of what he was actually going through.

Haven’t heard of this guy before or the company but his story was inspiring to anyone who needs to get over themselves and follow their dreams. I enjoyed this podcast.

Successful people don't become that way overnight. most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

Although I understand many of the things he says, I think balance between personal and professional time is key to a healthy mind and body in the long term

George is unbelievable to go through that as a young business owner. Absolutely flying now. Class!

Thank you for your video I study English with this 영어공부하는데 많은 도움이 됩니다 감사합니다 !

I have been following this brand since they were making that colourful t shirts and hoodies in the beginnings. It's nice to see that the shift, especially since 2016.

I love this brand anyway but this insightful podcast has just increased my love. Represent is such a good quality brand and hearing this detail into what they go through. Is insane. I love this ❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely loved the back and forth between you two CEOs! Steven, you were obviously SO invested in this conversation as a fan of this brand and a driven business man yourself! I’ve never heard of the brand but really enjoyed this honest, interesting conversation about how he started and all the ups and downs he’s faced. Excellent interview!

I bought into this brand in 2014 (still have the screenshot) before most knew about it, it has always felt so well put together. It always had that special feeling for me that I could never put my finger on. Loved this one.

George is so honest and upfront. Watched him on the @CEOcast podcast and its so good how he doesn't shy away or beat around the bush with any question. Great characteristics which I'm sure he's worked on. Loved this!

George is such a hard working humble guy. He needs to know that he’s such an inspiration. Thanks for this! Inspired to work hard - and start 75 Hard now!

A lot of people work hard in a job that isn't aligned with their passions, they don't own anything at the end of the day, its soul sucking. Easy for this guy to say some of his insights, its respectable and inspiring too.

One of the most insightful podcasts I've listened to. Highly inspirational, keep killing it George!

So pleased to have CEOs back on! Please continue to have more entrepreneurs on the podcast and a more of a business angle! ❤ you have no idea how beneficial these are to us business owners!

Looking at the products and how outrageously overpriced they are, I would say that if it can be considered a $100 million business, it could quickly turn into a $5 million or $500 million business. Popular brands can become insignificant very fast. The products are very mediocre and horrendously overpriced. 150 Euro for a pair of shorts !!! Fashion and trends change quickly. I would not feel comfortable selling those products at those prices at all.

he felt proud of his dad! that's amazing. This is a lesson in resilience and how a weekness (sensitive skin) can be turned into a strenght

Brilliant, Steven. Excellent questions and a very insightful interview with George. Thank you!!

Kudos to the guy for doing what he's done - it sounds like an uphill slog. It really does. I can't help but take away that this lad was able to go 'balls to the wall' as a kid and do this because he had familial privilege to back him up. He was never at risk of being homeless or losing all of the basics necessary for survival. That's not the story the vast majority of us grew up with. That's not to say he didn't work his ass off, and that's not to say he doesn't deserve his success. It's just not the reality for most of us. The bit about working through burnout worries me. It's actually pretty dangerous advice to throw out to the public. Please don't feel ashamed if you've suffered burnout and needed time to recover. This guy claims to have 'worked through it', but others have taken their own lives. Burnout is serious, miserable, and deeply traumatic - do what you need to do to be OK. There's never any shame and certainly no bravado to be had working yourself into the ground during a mental health crisis. Overall, the feeling I get from this guy is that he seems quite unhappy. I've never felt as though I needed a shower after listening to an interview before.

Beautiful conversation. Made me realize I have nobody to ask for an honest opinion, my family is far from supportive, not to mention being immersed in what I do and wanting to make it as important for society as I do. We all go through difficult times, but the ship with one member of the crew has no chance of moving forward. At best it's floating. Thank you both.

He is intense in such a complicated way. I have so much respect for him. Now I understand why they charge a premium for their products.

‘There’s a lot of negativity around working hard and I don’t like that.’ Agreed 100%. George, you just gained another follower.

Great interview! Steven with the high mileage questions. It was like a health and wellness coaching session for George. Steven, the life coach!

Wasn’t familiar with George until I started my brand and getting exposed to industry leaders and market movers. George is an incredible entrepreneur and his perspective throughout this entire interview is refreshing vs what you see on social media today.

I received a letter saying basically the exact same thing from an Italian company that was turning over 300 mil a year easily. I had PTSD every time I opened a letter since. It's a little less intense now, but it screwed me up for years. Possibly the worst moment in my business life so far.

One stop shop for building a brand. Every one's dream that doesn't exist. They hit the ceiling quick but pushed through. Nice interview.

Nice to see another business ‘focussed’ episode. The episodes recently have seemed to lean towards health.

I got demotivated with this podcast. Sadly my life has been a lot of trauma and abuse. Since childhood into adulthood. I'm 38 and trying to snap out of depression and see that there is something to live for. Your videos often motivate me but then seeing that I will have to work hard for 10 years before seeing results means I will be nearly 50 by time I have a life and that's if I make it. Wish my life wasnt so crap that I wasted all my life and only now trying to get out of this hole. I've left it too late. Hope others dont do what I did. I'm really kicking myself now. Wish i wasnt hurt by others. Good luck everyone. If you're young then dont wait. Dont let the abusers win.

You cannot think so big and so far in the future. You just try to improve what you are doing, and grow incrementally. People do not have to spend Years failing and then suddenly they grow huge. It is more like, they continue to grow and then look back and see how far they have come. Also, does not have to take 10yrs. My 1st business, I began as a teenager, and was making great money within 2 yrs. Though I did eventually go out of business about 12yrs later and then it did take some time to grow the next business, but that was due more to health issues. To be honest? If you are not improving and growing in a business, sometimes it is best to stop and start fresh.
