Jordan Schwarzenberger is the co-founder of Arcade, the entertainment company behind some of the biggest names in the creator world, and he has news for you: you're probably not as entertaining as you think you are.

At 29, Jordan runs multiple companies, leads a 22-person agency, hosts his own podcast, and is raising 5 kids. Jun starts where most interviews don't: how he holds it all together.

Jordan's answer runs through faith, why pride is at the root of most professional self-sabotage, and the ordering of his life that makes everything else work.

Then it gets tactical: why the future belongs to "content engineers," what makes people care enough to follow you, why delivery beats hooks, and how to stop sounding like a presenter.

And for those of you interested in expanding to live events, Jordan breaks down his fool-proof formula for his live-events business.

This is for anyone who wants to stop guessing at content and start engineering it, and for the ambitious ones trying to build big without losing themselves in the process.
