From revenue breakdowns across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and brand deals to his "infinite giving" philosophy, Simon shows that you can do good and make money—at scale. This episode is a masterclass in purpose-driven entrepreneurship, and a behind-the-scenes look at how generosity can become a business advantage.
