from Talk Shit With P · host TSWP
I finally got to sit down with Trent Out Loud @trentoutloud after finally getting our schedules together (some back & forth emails…) but it was all WORTH IT!!What made this interview amazing & much more interesting is how Parallel our stories are!! We got to share our journeys with our mental health struggles & even made future plans to keep promoting mental health (& hopefully get my books signed and written ) Thank you @trentoutloud for sharing your mental health journey with us & thank you for being so vulnerable in your books (now give us that last one ALREADY)!!@TrentOutLoud is the founder of Exclucity. He laid the groundwork for sneaker culture in Canada and his autobiographical debut as an author, “How Sneakers Saved My Life: Book 1” and How Sneakers Ruined My Life: Book 2, gives you an up close and personal look at the man behind the brand. A child of Jamaican immigrants that went from being on welfare, to CEO of one of the most successful brands in Canadian history. From selling Long Tees and Du-rags out of the trunk of his car to ten store fronts that have employed over 800 people.Everybody wants to know how he did it, and now he’s telling the unfiltered truth. Anybody can talk to you about how to get money, how to be a success, but not many are willing to be open enough to show you the toll it can take on your soul to get there. Trent Out Loud is standing in his truth and his courage will allow many to do the same.TRENT OUT LOUDS BOOKS;How Sneakers Saved My Life SynopsisWelfare, bankruptcy, arrests, failed businesses, and more. In Book 1, How Sneakers Saved My Life, Trent rips the covers off and takes us on the roller-coaster ride that is his life. While some of Trent’s life experiences are shocking to read, his journey is captivating and you will find yourself rooting for his success along the way, especially during his most difficult years.He details how he brought Exclucity from the trunk of his car to the national stage, includes a police chase that will have you on the edge of your seat, and introduces the first company he started at just 12 years old. Trent also shares stories about his gambling past, being banned from the USA, modelling in New York City and South Africa, sourcing in China, getting kicked out of high school and only having $3.52 to his name. Not one page of this autobiography is boring.If you’re a young or eager entrepreneur, you will learn so much from this book, and if you’re not, that’s fine too, there are enough life lessons in it for someone of any age to learn from. Trent’s life is a MOVIE!How Sneakers Ruined My Life SynopsisWe get a rare insider’s look at how the same sneaker industry that once helped to propel Trent’s business to the national stage turned its back on him and started working against him as it battled for its own survival. We get to see a side of entrepreneurship that is revealing and also very shocking.In 2018, after two consecutive years of declining sales, Trent’s once-thriving business was in jeopardy and those corporate meetings were replaced with bankruptcy trustees, restructuring advisors, debt consultants and a mental health therapist. Book 2, How Sneakers Ruined My Life is a story about struggle and pain but also about grit, grind and refusing to give up, even in the face of certain defeat -- a lesson we all can learn from. It’s never over until it’s over.NEXT: HOW QUARANTINE SAVED MY LIFE (COMING SOON)!!******#Podcasting #Podcaster #InstaPod #IGPod #May #Minipod #MentalHealth #Community #Recovery #Psychology #Love #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #Awareness #Mental #Mind #Health #Healing #Wellness #Anxiety #BiPolarTalk yo sh!t… Sh!t-Talker!!Support the showFOLLOW US ON;Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkshitwithpTwitter: https://twitter.com/TalkshitwithpFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TalkwhitwIthpTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@TalkshitwithpShop IG: https://www.instagram.com/Talkshitwithp.shopLEAVE US A REVIEW ON APPLE PODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-shit-with-p/id1509470001AND SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL:https://www.youtube.com/@TalkshitwithpSupport The Show (whatever you can)Cashapp: https://cash.app/$TSWP20Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TswpBuymecoffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/talkshitwithpAmazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2M9Q4HNKRO2WA?ref_=wl_shareTo Learn more on my story;https://flow.page/tal...
