Live at VeeCon 2022 is the audio web series hosted by Josh Cary, that captures 55 stories in 5-minute segments directly from the floor of the event.
VeeCon 2022 took place May 19-22 at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis MN.
So what exactly is VeeCon? It's Gary Vaynerchuk's exclusive conference around Web3 and culture. It's a multi-day conference where only VeeFriends token holders get to experience an extraordinary lineup of content, keynote speakers, networking, and a bevy of entertainment.
When Gary Vee is quoted as saying that VeeCon is the career-defining conference of his life, it becomes something you want to be part of.
Josh Cary went to the event with a purpose: not only for the experience but to capture the experiences of others.
Josh sat down with people from all walks of life and from every generation to find the one thing we all have in common.
This audio web series features the people who make up the VeeFriends family and puts the meaning and purpose of life into perspective. And why is that so important to Josh?
Well, known as the Hidden Entrepreneur, Josh Cary spent 40 years of his life hiding, showing up in every situation hiding his true talent, his true ability, and everything that he was capable of achieving remained hidden.
All this was in exchange for seeking your approval, seeking the approval of others. Finally, through the eyes of his two adoring young children, he realized that there is a better way to live life. And some years ago he made that deliberate choice to take personal responsibility for his life, no longer hide, no longer play small, and show up as fully and confidently as he had always been capable of doing.
That's why a project like this is so important to Josh, because not only is he able to step into what he's capable of doing, but also through the 55 stories of the people that he met and the collective experience coming through, he allows others to do the same.
