Episode Notes

In this episode, I sit down with Niall McMillan, the silent, face-pulling creator whose videos reach 300 to 400 million views a month across around 11 million followers. We talk about how a six-figure corporate career and an "is this it?" moment led him to self-help, and why he committed to posting every day, a streak now past seven years. Niall shares how his NPC-in-viral-videos niche (and the milk) happened by accident, and why he's an entrepreneur with a huge audience, no product, and a very small email list. He opens up about quitting his job the day his wife got the all-clear after breast cancer, and losing his 7.2M-follower TikTok account two weeks later. We also cover how he got it back, why community matters more than followers, and the question he asks everyone: "How can I be of value to you?"
