BE Yourself

He Moved to LA With $300 and a Dream (Here’s What Happened) | Darin Rios

Serhii — Sun, 24 May 2026 10:07:38 GMT

In this episode of the Be Yourself podcast, I’m joined by Darin Rios, a high-level personal brand strategist in Los Angeles who works with A-list celebrities and entrepreneurs.

Darin shares a raw and inspiring story about moving to LA at 25 with only $300, prepared to live in his car just to make his vision a reality. We go behind the scenes of the pivotal moment his career took a massive leap: landing a Coca-Cola commercial shoot with Kevin Hart. Despite showing up with "rinky-dink" equipment and battling intense imposter syndrome, his grit led to an orchestrated, serendipitous opportunity in filmmaking working with Johnny Depp.

We dive deep into how the fire of adversity forges a strong character and why taking 100% responsibility is the key to an authentic life. Darin’s journey is a powerful reminder that you don't need permission to be "good enough"—you just have to show up and figure it out. 🎥✨

How AI Unlocked Life Patterns and Changed His Life | Jordan Seggman

Serhii — Sun, 01 Mar 2026 13:08:01 GMT

What happens when you use AI for self discovery instead of productivity?

In this episode of the Be Yourself Podcast, I sit down with Jordan Seggman (Seggy) to explore how talking to ChatGPT became less about content and more about clarity. What started as curiosity turned into an honest experiment with AI pattern recognition and better questions.

During a personal rock bottom at 30, Seggy began “brain-dumping” his thoughts into AI. Instead of generic reassurance, he started seeing a clear pattern: fear was driving many of his decisions. That realization changed how he approached his life.

We talk about the wrong way to use AI, why discernment matters more than prompt engineering, whether AI is truly a threat, and what it means to compete with AI without losing yourself. We also dive into belief systems, attention, external validation, and ownership.

Serhii — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 18:21:38 GMT

In this raw episode of the Be Yourself Podcast, I sit down with David Angel to unpack the brutal truth about sales through the lens of collapse, addiction, recovery, and rebuilding from zero. After losing his businesses, home, and possessions, David was forced to confront both personal addiction and professional identity and start over. The journey from rock bottom to becoming a recovered addict reshaped how he sees selling, making money, and success itself.

We explore why no one actually cares about what you sell — they care about results. The real truth about sales is not persuasion, manipulation, or flashy sales techniques. It’s about reducing risk, increasing certainty, and delivering on promises. Through addiction recovery and business failure, David discovered that sustainable success in sales and entrepreneurship starts with radical honesty — first with yourself, then with your clients.

This conversation blends sales psychology, addiction recovery, entrepreneurship, and personal growth. If you want to understand the brutal truth about sales, rebuild after failure, and sharpen your ability to deliver real value, this episode is for you.

BE Yourself: Masha Vynogradova

Serhii — Thu, 18 May 2023 13:06:27 GMT

In this episode, I was joined by Masha Vynogradova - a TV/Radio host, an inspiring Ukrainian who made her way to hosting the latest Eurovision Contest press conference and backstage events organized by BBC Radio.

Masha is currently in London, but back in Ukraine, she had a one-of-a-kind career: for 17 years, she worked as a journalist, later becoming a TV presenter at M1 music channel and a host of a morning show on Radio Energy.

Masha's vigorous energy is contagious, and that's precisely the reason why I was smiling throughout the entire conversation 😄 I resonate with the passion Masha has for her craft because I believe that, just like Masha, all of us have to do what we love and truly can't live without.

Watch this episode for insights on presenting, finding your path in life, the necessity to shine bright and chase your dreams even when the odds are stacked against you.

Be Yourself: Mark Herschberg on Tech Career, Writing a Book, and Professional Vs. Personal Life

Serhii — Fri, 26 Jan 2024 15:35:31 GMT

In the second coming of Mark Hershberg to my podcast, I decided to stir the pot a bit: in addition to covering professional life in the US, career and leadership, networking and sales, of which Mark is obviously a maestro, I dug deeper and asked Mark about his early years in the 80th, the formation of the internet in the 90th, and how he has made a choice to connect his life to tech while it was not considered sexy at all. On top of that, we talked about dating and how it is somewhat similar to a professional life. I marvel at conversations with people who know how to listen and share unpopular yet supremely compelling opinions on a wide array of subjects. That's what you're in for today. Enjoy!

Darina Briu: The CEO of DashFight Reveals Her Secrets to Success and Happiness

Serhii — Thu, 15 Feb 2024 17:25:26 GMT

In this episode I am talking to Darina Briu, who's remotely running a successful business in the eSports Industry. We first met when about 1.5 years ago Darina spotted me on TikTok with my videos on business communication as she was preparing for the WebSammit in Lisbon and asked me to imitate some negotiations with her. Darina is a remarkable individual I resonate a lot with: her passion, grit and at times dreamer's mindset helped her to create the life she's always desired.
