This episode is a little different because I'm not interviewing someone who works behind the scenes like I usually do, but someone who's very much on the front stage himself.

His name is Leon Hendrix, and he's a good friend of mine who started a personal development YouTube channel a little over a year ago. In that short period of time he's managed to grow his channel past 250k subscribers and he's making a solid income from it.

In this episode, we go deep on the business of YouTube and how long it actually takes to make a living from a small YouTube channel.

Leon's at a point where he's starting to hire people behind the scenes to help him grow the channel to 1M subscribers and beyond, so we also talk about the positions he's hiring for as well as the best ways to apply -wether it's with him or any other YouTube creator out there.
