As I upload this, I am realizing that there is a pretty huge part of my life that I barely ever talk about publicly. I mean, that is also somewhat true of family things, but business isn't traditionally seen as a thing to be private about. There are lots of people who have big, full careers just talking about the business of their business. I myself have felt the pull to create that kind of content and have done it!
But I stopped a while back as I realized that talking about the inside operations of my business was always sharing other people's stories as well as my own, and that's weird without asking for permission. Plus, my perception of a situation is never going to be exactly the same as someone else's. So I stopped doing it. I even put a little sign on my computer that says "DON'T TWEET ABOUT WORK" to remind me. Even this video felt like it was on the edge of sharing too much, though it is almost all about me.
I feel like there's a relationship between the "I tweet about what a good boss I am boss" and the "wife guy." And we've seen times when those bosses hve proved that they are not great bosses. I am also not a great boss...I know that there are some out there, but it's not an easy thing to do. It's especially hard when you have both the inclination and opportunity to be constantly distracted by other things!
So yeah, that's why I don't talk about the biggest part of my professional life on the internet. If my businesses were just my business, I would, but it's not.

Honestly, Katherine’s support for the mustache is more surprising than Hank stepping down as CEO.

@Arthera0 Год назад

sadly there are way more people who think they can pull off a mustache than people that actually can.

@Kristoferpalmestal Год назад

I like the mustache.

@amandamcquade1272 Год назад

My Dad grew his first thick mustache when I was 9. My Mom, sister and I hated it because it was so bristly to kiss him. Once it came in fully, it was marvelous. He shaved it off two years later...and we all cried. 😢 Big Yellow Taxi moment there! 🎶✨️🚕

@shadowstorm657 Год назад

My wife recently just found a tumor in her brain when we went for a wellness check. The nurse there knew something was off. I'm still struggling to figure out things myself and in only 4 days she will be going in for surgery. The tumor was not small either, but your story has helped me Hank through this. She has a very positive outlook and has been amazing with it all. An update nearly one week later: The surgery on Tuesday went well. It's Wednesday and now she is stable She has some vision loss but that may recover in time due to the tumors location, pressing against her pituitary gland and raising her optic nerves. The long road of recovery, PT and bills are ahead, but I did not lose the light of my life.

It's an odd feeling to look back at the many years I've been in this community and how it's charged but also stayed the same. From 2011 goatee-wearing Hank singing about ponies and John still writing TFIOS to retired triple-CEO Heisenberg lookalike Hank and TB philanthropist and UN speaker John Green. Yet they're both equally as nerdy, enthusiastic, and lively as they've ever been. The vlogbrothers have really been a boon to the world ❤

@losermillie 10 месяцев назад

Good grief, vlogbrothers may never have been or probably will be one of the biggest RU-vid channels, but it surely must be one of the most influential. From vidcon to P4a to helping channels like freaking Kurzgesagt get off the ground, not to mention the way you model community building, y'all are pretty amazing.

@Rayowag Год назад

I feel like vlogbrothers is kind of like one of a handful of what I'd call "backbone channels".

@SilverAerialist Год назад

Hank I appreciate you ability to see that while you were doing great work as CEO, you could allow others to take over and it wouldn’t be a bad thing. My dad did the opposite when he got cancer, he never stopped working and never allowed someone to take over the company before it was too late. He was a great businessman, but also a huge bottleneck and it made life without him so much harder. I’m sure Katherine and Orin will be eternally grateful that you took this journey now and not later.

I started watching in junior year of high school and now I am in my thirties, so it’s not an exaggeration to say I have grown up watching this channel and this community evolve. I remember watching you guys blend happy meals, John waxing his chin, fitting peeps into your mouth, John wanting an army of babies, and more funny things at the start and now you all have been through so much life change, as have I. I guess I wanted to leave a comment to say thank you. Thank you for telling 16 year old me that it was ok to be passionate even if caring about things made me a nerd, for teaching me a wide variety of things, and for oddly enough being one of the most constants in my life from my teens to my adulthood. ❤

@alexandrac6177 Год назад

Just pausing in the middle of this to say, as someone who has worked for ambitious startups and nonprofits of all kind, the anxiety you’re describing is usually what causes founder’s syndrome-and I haven’t seen a single org with FS that didn’t eventually fail. One particularly bad case had the CEO and cofounder in my office (as a copywriter with an entire marketing leadership team ahead of me in the chain) daily, nitpicking first drafts and editing every single piece of content and copy with me personally. Again, this was daily. I’m so, so excited and happy to see you embrace the reality that others are going to make different choices than you would, and recognize that that’s *the point*. I hope to start my own NPO and you are repeatedly an inspiration to and blueprint for me. Also, nice mustache.

Give Julie the deserved flowers.

When I think of truly goodhearted people that are deserving of peace, I think of Hank and John. You two have been a constant in my life from the time I stumbled upon vlogbrothers as a kid to now in my adulthood. a lot has happened in the time I've been a need fighter, ups and downs, highs and lows, I've lost people and found people, I've moved a lot, got married, and through it all, I always know that I can go on RU-vid and find a couple of nerds that always make me feel at home. I wish I could give both you and John big hugs. Hank, don't ever feel bad for taking steps to making your quality of life better. you deserve it. you've changed so many lives. including mine. thank you. DFTBA

Teamwork is definitely me favorite Pizzamas shirt. I guess because it works as a regular T-shirt as well. Also, I am a sucker for green 💚 Hank, I'm so happy for you and very happy that other qualified people gave taken over the leadership position at DFTBA and complexly. I can't wait to run out of soaps and start my sun basin soap subscription ❤

@autumnbrookesings Год назад

Teamwork John is so pretty! I ordered that one~ It’s been a lovely Pizzamas, thank you for the continued weirdness! I’m excited for the next chapter in DFTBA and Complexly, always amazing things coming

You got me, hank. I don't have my own oven mitt and I'd been considering the pizza john one, and you got me. Compliments to the new CEO

Hank is amazing. He hires and inspires great employees.

I’m so glad you’re becoming more and more bubbly like your old self. You’ve done so much and fought cancer kicking it’s butt! But seeing you feeling so bad and deal with the anxiety and depression was so sad, but completely understand! I’m so glad you’ve come this far and have moments that you can be your bubbly self! I hope you don’t feel you must cover your physical feelings just for us viewers, if you can’t be so up and active that’s ok! Of course you probably know that but it’s just so nice to see you doing what you love, and being yourself. 💜

Apply for the grant! I got one in 2018 and even though my channel is in a period of inactivity, that grant didn't just help me produce better videos for my channel, it also helped me go from a job I was miserable at in a career I didn't want to becoming a full-time educational video creator (first by getting a job at MinuteEarth and currently editing videos for Johnny Harris). I wouldn't have been able to get those jobs if I wasn't able to produce some videos on my own during my free time that I was able to use as a portfolio of work to land those other jobs. I used the gear/software/courses I got using that grant to do stuff I wouldn't have been able to do at the time with the gear (and income) I had at the time. So, definitely do apply!

I would love to see snippet reviews of some of the media you consumed during this since you asked for recommendations. If you had anything you were able to enjoy while healing.

watching in Dec 23, just been through massive change, you helped me make sense, thankyou both.

@WillPhil290 Год назад

Why can't... more people be like you? You're so kind... and so involved and immersed in what you care about... you're hands down the best science communicator and probably... the best person on RU-vid, in my professional opinion... I'm so greatful that you're in recovery. I don't have much in life but listening to you and your brother is something I really value in life... and I'm sure millions of other people would agree... the world is a better place that you both are in it.

Teamwork is my fave because it’s the most normal. The only pizza john shirt I’ve purchased is the mushroom one from a few years back. It’s very wearable!

"Physics for the Birds" is one of my favorite educational youtube channels. Small following, but super interesting videos.

@RainbowOwl24 Год назад

😮 When I saw that title my heart skipped a beat. I'm really nervous about what a new CEO means for Nerdfighteria but the fact that Hank is still gonna be involved makes me a little less nervous. Please, Universe, let this be a good thing for our community. 🙏 🙏 🙏

@Starlysh Год назад

I love everything about the teamwork one but mostly I love it because it's on this beautiful dark green color that I don't see too often! And I found someone else who loved it for the same reason lol. I received both that and then oven mitt today and they're both wonderful. Thank you for Pizzamas!

But what's the Business Lesson from this, Hank? Your future 1 million LinkedIn followers need to know!

@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Год назад

"Hire a CEO who's good at being a CEO" is probably a good business lesson.

When I saw the title I sincerely thought that was the case, and I'm glad you got someone awesome to do this job! Congrats for your major step! Not really a step down, but, if you think about it, a really good step forward so this company can be sustainable for you guys!

Darnit Hank, I know you don't want to be President but I'd vote for you. I want to vote for you. Continue being a pillar of our wonderful internet community!
