Why Judging Yourself is Never the Answer | Tea with GaryVee Ep. 110

Gary Vaynerchuk sits down with Team Gary for a group Q&A to discuss why self-judgment and unrealistic standards are the real sources of anxiety, not social media. He reframes embarrassment as an advantage, introduces a framework of vulnerability paired with accountability, and warns against superhero syndrome that builds resentment. The conversation also covers the fleeting nature of intuition and the choices we make with AI.
