Description: In today’s episode, I sit down with Ronnie 2K to talk about building influence the right way. He shares how his journey from a passionate gamer to the face of a global franchise came together organically, and why expanding into new ventures is about creating more opportunities to make an impact. We get into the difference between fulfillment and success, the responsibility that comes with a platform, and the darker side of online influence, from trolling to real-world risks. Ronnie also opens up about his upcoming documentary and how his background prepared him to handle both attention and adversity while staying focused on using influence for good.
