Will Rossy, founder of Sprouht, joins If You Know You Know to talk about what he’s learned from having conversations with people from all walks of life and what actually makes a good life. Through Sprouht, Will has built an audience of millions and generated hundreds of millions of views by asking people meaningful questions about life, success, happiness, relationships, regret, money, and the advice they wish they knew sooner. After interviewing everyone from everyday strangers to high-level entrepreneurs, executives, creators, and fascinating people around the world, we wanted to know: What has Will learned from all of them? We get into how Sprouht started, the reality behind creating viral content, what millions of views actually mean, and how Will approaches strangers and gets them to open up on camera. He shares the biggest lessons and patterns he’s noticed after thousands of conversations including what successful people have in common, whether money actually makes people happier, the regrets that come up again and again, and what he now believes truly makes a fulfilling life. We also bring it back home to Montreal. Will shares his favourite hidden Montreal gems, the places he thinks deserve more hype, his relationship with the city, and how being from Montreal has influenced the person and creator he’s become. Plus, we talk about ambition, success, purpose, social media, building a community instead of just chasing views, the conversations that have stayed with him the most, and the advice he’s personally taken away from the people he’s interviewed. After spending years asking everyone else the big questions, this time Will Rossy is the one answering them. Watch the full episode of If You Know You Know with Will Rossy of Sprouht.
