E18: Chris 'Drama' Pfaff - Dealing with Fame, Anxiety and Addiction

Uh So, Chris, thank you so much for doing this today. I really appreciate it. It's great to get to meet someone like yourself while I'm out here in LA and get a productive conversation about things that I myself are trying to uncover, but you as a seasoned entrepreneur in this space have been through. My audience is predominantly Young Aspiring. European, British um people, pr slightly skews to male, but we do have a strong female listenership as well.

For those of the people listening that don't know your story, yep. Could you give us a top line overview of your personal journey? Absolutely. So first Thank you for having me. I'm excited. And that audience is exactly who I'm trying to reach and spread my message to so it's perfect and hi to all the new listeners. My story is this. I was born and raised in Akron, Ohio. Akron, Ohio is a pretty small area, not complete farmland, but Pretty close to it, right? And I grew up I have a brother, older brother, I have two parents who are still together. Everything was super Simple. They loved family. It was all about family, stuff like that. Not so much entrepreneurship, um or really going above and beyond and doing anything crazy, but just a really nice solid foundation.

I fell in love with skateboarding at like ten years old, I think. And me and my brother both. And so that's all we would do is skateboard every day, all day. We would leave school as soon as we can, do whatever. I was always uh ditching out on doing any school sports or school activities or anything like that.'Cause all I wanted to do was skateboard. So around I would say the age of fourteen So around like fourteen I decided that this is where I was gonna move. No matter what, as soon as I graduated high school, I was college was not an option for me. I was coming straight to LA and I was just gonna try to make something happen. I wasn't good enough
