    I look back on 2022 and at first I told myself how terrible it was. I didn't necessarily achieve anything spectacular, but on seconds thoughts, 2022 has been an absolutely incredible year for me and I'm sure for everyone else for self improvement. People such as Hamza, or the Tate brothers have influenced so many young men to change up their act. Of course men and women have their individual struggles, however it's clear to see from all the male influencers in 2022, that for whatever reason, mens mental health had a rapid decrease this past year and over covid. I am nowhere near where I want to be financially or mentally right now, but I can say I've made incredible improvements because of these men.

    I still can't believe that this man has only 40k subs. For such a caliber of content you should be popping with at least a milion. Keep the good work man.

    The word “cult” comes from Latin and its associated with the act of taking care of yourself, I think that’s exactly what Hamza wants to preach so the word “cult leader” couldn’t be better to describe him
