Justin Nguyen was the student who had “everything”; a high GPA, internships at Fortune 150 companies, and involved on campus… but he still didn’t know what he wanted to do in his life. Instead of going down the traditional path, he decided to start a podcast where he gets to interview people his age who are killing it in their industry, learn from them, and share their stories.



Being the son of two Vietnamese Refugees, education was supposed to be the way out, but he’s always felt that he never got the guidance that he was looking for in school. With Young and D.U.M.B. and GetChoGrindup, he is bridging that gap between school and real life application.



Justin is a LinkedIn Campus Editor for the University of Central Florida, his content is viewed over 65,000 times each month, and host LinkedIn Workshops on campus to teach students how to leverage LinkedIn to get a full time job after graduation.



Through the Young and D.U.M.B. Podcast Justin and his team have interviewed Emmy winners, influencers with tens of millions of followers, successful entrepreneurs; and one thing they all have in common is that they’re just getting started. Each month thousands tune in to listen to these stories.

This week Will is joined by Brian Schulman, Founder & CEO of Voice Your Vibe™, a Forbes Featured Entrepreneur, a LinkedIn Top Voice 2018 and LinkedIn Top Video Creator. 



However, behind all of the accolades is a seemingly unparalleled struggle that has forged an incredible man.



It all began before Brian was born. In fact, he wasn’t even supposed to live at birth, but he did. Later in his life, he was diagnosed with Turrets Syndrome and has been battling it ever since.



Now Brian is taking these experiences and turning them into positives. He’s spreading his message through his large LinkedIn following (over 30,000) and through his company Voice Your Vibe™, which aims to maximize the impact of company’s messaging across all platforms and media, as well as within their internal communications. 



Brian’s goal is to empower everyone to share their story (because we all have one) while not forgetting what got us here in the first place. This episode even features a never-before heard personal letter from Brian’s daughter, which Brian reads as a testament to his own struggles and perseverance.

Erika Gutierrez is your average Brazilian/Colombian learning the lessons of life one moment at a time. She is currently an Applied and Computational Mathematics student at Florida State University, fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese. 



Speaking three languages has opened passageways that has allowed Erika to explore so much of what this world has to offer, and she says it can do the same for you too if you are interested.



She was originally a Marketing/Entrepreneurship Major, but when she was in high school, she started a videography business and consulted and created content for boutiques who wanted to grow their online presence through social media.



Recently, Erika developed “The Positive Focus” to educate others on the power of positive thinking. Now, she has found many people are confused on what it actually means to be a positive thinker.



Erika strongly believes that the people you surround yourself with will shape the course of your life. She advocates for not settling for less than what you deserve and being unafraid to be selfish. Erika also says to never put your happiness aside for somebody who is bringing you down, as there are many so kinds of humans in this world– you just need to go out there and meet the right ones.
