how to travel on a dime all over the world right now
What’s up influencers here with Daniel Eisenman world traveler youtuber and self-awareness coach boom
thank you so much for having us here
mm thank you man look at us yeah look at were we're at look you guys you're awesome too
and we're here at one of his events international tribe design which is
is amazing I've already experienced a couple amazing days and you know there's
just so much about you that I want the audience to know beyond the fact that
you upload videos also to facebook you throw these events and you just know so
much about fitness and food so can you share with our audience real quick about
your journey from when you first started uploading videos to now
awesome so I I believe the first video I ever uploaded publicly which and now I i
think it's crazy how challenging that first one is for people who if I think
about myself I have to admit I was scared too
I was definitely worried about what people would think about me yeah and it
was a video of us blending and making a smoothie strictly of bananas and Romain
because at this point we were experimenting and like basically uh
reporting our results of a Raw Vegan diet and we were so stoked in the
beginning and so many people won the details so we made all these crazy
videos about being Raw Vegan learned a lot about the subculture some might
call the religion religion of that maybe that's me being bitter who knows
and long story short the more that we studied about food and fitness the more
we realize that some people that were in the public lie public eye I almost said public
lie interesting public eye or that they are there books or their movies may have
not necessarily matched up exactly with what how they live their life it was
more they put this message a lot of people believed to be like rock solid
truth and sometimes the people that originally wrote that message or made
that video or no longer even following that truth and so we decided why don't we
start making the Raw bros that was that's the name of the youtube channel
with my two brothers and I about like raw truth because of this deed the diet stop
working for my youngest brother and there was no way i could live my life
and pretend to be a raw so we're like we're gonna make a video and Ryan and
the response that he got from that like mothers the twice his age like really
condemning him over me an egg i think it was
yeah so I immediately that part is so jarring for me that my dad was like and
my testosterone got really love my teeth starting brown hair started thining so I
had some side effects to that was a bit concerned about and my testosterone was
apparently the like the range of like an 80 90 year-old male oh wow so my dad
likes Daniel you gotta eat just eat salmon I was like al right my dad told me to do it i’ll
rationalise i'm listening to my parents being a good biblical man and i ate a
salmon in the next morning i'm wanting to save it's the most PG way possible
I just woke up with like a for lack of better terminology excuse this but
morning wood for the first time in a very long time
yeah now and I was like what the it was just so weird that I was so affected by
eating food so I immediately opened my mind to be more experimental with what
is the best diet and let's just tell the truth
let's tell the truth that turned up people wanting in a long time before
that I had a retreat business giving you know when i graduate college my brother
graduated high school but also we have this huge audience base of people that
were interested in our lifestyles so we start doing retreats around health and
long story short we I i came to believe that maybe the one practice that most
people would benefit the like get the most health benefits from out of
anything is the practice of being fully known
like fully authentic fully transparent being able to talk about all the things
you don't want to talk about to the person that would impact the most and
talk about it in a loving like an unconditionally loving way it's just
like this health practices profound so we built retreats around that idea of my
brothers now I'm doing it with other business partners I started mastermind
group and when the mastermind groups here we co-create this company
international tribes on and you’re we're blessed enough to have you experienced
so far and it's amazing and what I love about your event is you doing in epic
places
yes and you know the research that goes into it of you going to different
places traveling all over the world
it's pretty amazing and people want to travel as well so for those potential
youtubers or current youtubers do you have any advice around traveling and
becoming a travel blogger yeah so without sounding like too much of a
smart-aleck i would say my best advice is to do it it’s like it's amazing that
the stories people tell me about why they don't go on vacation yeah because
they did is kinda it had cost this much for flight and cause this much for a
hotel and then tell all these stories they're basically arguing for the
limitations and look in my opinion looking for someone else to validate
that argument to make them feel a little bit more comfortable with their current
reality
uh-huh so i did like let go of the stories that you think about traveling
and if you want to travel
you'll do it and you do it and bring a camera and film the most fun parts and
or and or if you really want to cut to the core do a live facebook video while
you're traveling totally make a travel blog tomorrow and if you're
if you think no it’s impossible maybe take a trip into them
the closest like national park that you can and or a beautiful place that you
haven't gone in a while if that has cell phone reception if you can possibly do
it all because then you have to worry about uploading it later go live on
Facebook yeah do it
yeah and then you'll learn everything else that all the you’ll learn the truth
and the truth about all the stories that prevent people from traveling and making
vlogs yeah I love your point about just do it
right which I think goes even deeper which is if you just want to start a
YouTube channel just do it right
yeah you know a lot of people have fear of the camera because they're gonna be
fearful of judgment negativity comments which the things that you and your
brothers had to deal with right so if we're going to just go right to the core
of the issue about you know not just going in traveling and vlogging about it
but turning on the camera recording yourself is there any advice on that
know about starting a YouTube channel in general like any tips for your future
creators that would like to either travel the world or just started YouTube
channel
yeah i think that youtube channel would be really good to highlight your gift
because YouTube is an outlet to giving your gift and more people so what comes
easiest to like when you see other people struggling maybe it's cooking you
like it if you watch me cooking might be like what's wrong with this but some people
like I look at them like wow like my wife Deanna is a she can make I
my opinion if she wanted to she could make an epic like cooking channel yeah
however that is not only about what comes easiest to you I think when you
find it comes easiest to you and it would
you're a bit the most scared about the most excited about this fear and
excitement on my opinion are the thing is it's great to realize that fear and
excitement on a physiological level are pretty much identical and if you can
start become more comfortable with the uncomfortable okay funcomfortable this
will also be an easier process so self-awareness might be something we're
going to talk to you next but when you can realize that this is a way for you
to give your gift to as many people as possible and I think that's pretty much
potentially one of the main like positive motivators of life like make
our gift are unique god-given gift like this gift it whether it's dancing
singing maybe it's something that has never been done before when he's being
on video maybe it's video-ing if it comes really easy to you and you’re a bit scared
to tell people about it that's the one that I recommend you make, you're making
your next video about yeah I love that advice because you know what if you're
scared about it there's a high likely
chancer other people are scared but also interested in that topic right maybe
it's an underserved content on YouTube and it's a great idea to go where
there's less competition but regardless of what you do right like if you're if
you want to follow Daniels tips i think the point is to just go and do it
whatever you have fun with write whatever comes easiest and know that
that fear even though it's there you can acknowledge it and push through it so
that with that being said another thing that people probably can learn from you
is how to travel on a dime
now the reason i ask you and this is one of the things I'm most impressed about
when it comes to Daniel currently he has literally less than 12 hundred
subscribers others youtube channel right now I know that there's more history
there you had another youtube channel called the raw bras which you guys still
have and you have a facebook following that's much larger than that but the
point being
you've always had off pretty much came after one thing
yeah so you can actually grow a substantial audience like in one day
yeah it was one cameo - oh totally - a piece video like 50,000 yeah but the point is you've
always done this with a rather small audience and it always has boggle my
mind how do you travel to the places you travel any suggestion to people that
might not have a lot of money right now I want to start traveling on and some of
the techniques that you applied to be able to do what you do
alright cool cool so there are definitely much probably free your ways
it depends on how adventurous you want to get that you can basically go on
craigslist right now look for a rideshare and you could take it to a
farm say on the California coastline for nothing you can do that like if you're
creative enough to make a good ad where you start looking for the good ads and
you go on woofing which is like w—w-o-o-f dot org the worldwide organization
organic farming which is basically a platform for people to exchange exchange
energy on the farm and learning about permaculture for food and accommodations
so that's a great way to travel some great places like some of the coolest
place in the world have the most fertile lands that we were talking earlier today
about how fertile the land and Washington is why don't you go find a
woofing farm like in Mount olympia and you get your mind blown
and you're doing it for your not only doing it for free but you are gaining a
lot of wisdom about the earth that you live on and adding to that something else
that I've seen you do and observed and I do myself now right even at my level is
this idea that the video that you're going to be giving to the people you
might be doing business with right that might be giving you some of their
services letting you stay at their places even that give him and talk about
free meals right
can you talk about like changing your thinking and realizing the video you
bring to the table literally in some cases is more valuable than you think
oh yeah it's there's so much true that there is like a my opinion this gets a
bit more than esoteric side that most people are getting what they want most
of the time down so I if the i believe if you truly want something and you want
to go for it there and whenever there's a will there's a way
and I think you have to want to travel out my opinion on this is why it's a bit
tricky as I think more people want to travel then they actually want then they
actually enjoyed traveling it’s like a story about traveling they have like this
dream association
yeah and it's this thing that seems challenging to get it's like impossible
and that's what vacations I think it's actually an idea sold by corporations
that want to know
yeah employee people put them under a ploy that work for them and take they
tried their time for money that's coming down a rabbit hole right there but uhm
yeah i think most people want to travel more than they actually want to do what
it takes but if you want to do what it takes to travel if you really feel like
you're the desire look start looking this is again a little esoteric we start
looking for the signs look for the people that are that are looking for you
like I had a story for a long time that I like that I want to write but so many
people want me to write a book they so many people want to write me write a
book and it seems like a great idea but i did not see like I don't
I can do what I'm doing and sit down and write a book so I'm like wait a minute I
know maybe I don't have to write the book so i put out a post asking actually
create a mastermind group and it was pitching an idea that I'm looking for
someone that would write everything i'm saying i can just make recordings they
can come to my retreats and then they can write a book like through my voice
they can find my voice and we go back and forth i give them audio recordings
and I edited it
sure enough guys here at this event you know and he is the we've partnered on
that project and he is so stoked about it was so such a gift i thought like I
wouldn’t know who would want to do that yeah not only doesn't someone not what they
do that's not true
people are begging me what they are looking to do exactly and you know the
point being that you can trade something of value right whether it's trading the
fact that you put video on youtube for staying for free at this resort right
yeah we've done stuff like that or you're letting somebody up a you know
like be part of your retreat to be able to you know help you write a book write
like trading of goods which I think that's a currency that people have
forgotten about a man and a new currency is cloud
yeah in a way if you if you if you are courageous enough to get very vulnerable
and authentic on camera which you know authenticity i'm imagining through your
studying of the video influencers is probably the most trending way to build
a brand it's like that easy like just talk about things you don't want to talk
about camera make them like shorter creative fun videos be consistent
yeah once you gain a following that following might be much more valuable to
a restaurant a resort or whatever it is that even money would be the last thing
that I want to do before we go into the lightning round -oh oh - is on that note of
authenticity right i think that thing that people are starting to know you
most for right now is this a being authentic right being aware and a lot of
our viewers might not be youtubers or video influencers or maybe they are
video influencers and they're just trying to figure out what it is that
they wanted
do with their life right and then just figure out what it is they want to takes
any last thoughts on that for people that might be watching to learn about
how to be self-aware and be authentic
hmm yeah yeah I would definitely my way I would realize that the sensations in
your body are the truest like the closest thing to the truth of what
feeling is it's literally a feeling its sensations their energy in your body so
a lot of people are running away from the sensations in their body associated
with anger awkwardness nervousness fear but in reality all it is is you're
experiencing an increase in sensations in your body and I think when you can
start looking for that and the most healthy way I think some of the most
physically crazy people like sky . a no offence to big wave surfers I serve some
so you to talk about surfers these guys are like crazily courageous and almost
to a fault sometimes like are they trying to kill themselves haha and i
think there's a correlation with that even an emotional suppression so I think
if when people can tap into the truth of are they willing to feel more alive in
their own bodies and let go the stories they tell about that like if you can
become as nervous and as awkward as fun comfortable as possible
yeah I think that's like where your success awaits you and it's like the
never ending story of like a fun challenge i love what you say about
listening to your own feelings right rather than letting other people's
perceptions of you other people's judgments other people's like ideas and
thoughts influence what it is that you think you are right like I and that's
one of the things I've learned the most about this event which is you know
listening to yourself
yeah they're sensations your body the story that you tell about the sensations
in your body your body my back is up to us it's up to me
for me it's at the helm for him so what he might think or list it take someone
else it was someone might think is like scary i might think is really exciting
and that might be the difference in our lives like that might be the difference
in the compass direction of our
lives boom alright lightning round before people start rolling in here you
had to give up one thing for the rest your life i think this is a bad question
for you would it be movies for the rest your life or social media for the rest
of your life only give up movies because I can walk a lot like it because I can
watch movies on social media green juice or green smoothies and green juice
travel all over the world and never get to surf or live in one place and get to
surf forever love living in one place and surfer what don't don't Deana and last
thing you grabbed out of the fridge that beer that I’m drinking movie or book that
you would suggest to a future influencer the alchemist in a zombie apocalypse
