In this episode, I chat with Ari Cogen, a 21-year-old creator who moved from his small hometown to the hustle and bustle of LA to pursue his passion for filmmaking. Ari shares his journey from watching travel videos in class to creating his own inspiring content, building a freelance videography business, and navigating the world of influencers. He opens up about how he pushed through uncertainty, took risks, and turned his passion into a thriving career—all without following the traditional path.

If you’ve ever felt lost, unsure of what to do with your life, or dreamed of making your mark outside the norm, this podcast is for you.
