    Dax Brulé: From Beating Cancer to Blowing up on YouTube

    Oftentimes, what appears to be "overnight" success actually took years to occur.  Dax Brulé's growth to over 200,000+ YouTube subscribers and 225,000+ Tik Tok followers in one year is a perfect example of that. In this week's episode, Theo chatted with Dax Brulé, the creator of PokéDaxi, a YouTube channel that provides quick PokémonGo tips to help people with their journey to catch 'em all. This conversation is a look at the five years of behind-the-scenes work that went into his eventual exponential growth: from a series of failed businesses, to extreme creative output that was falling on deaf ears, to overcoming a battle with cancer at just 19 years old, to eventually building a community of hundreds of thousands of likeminded gamers worldwide.  He also shares some of his best tips to growing on TikTok and YouTube, so stay tuned!
