Real people · Real conversations
Not everyone succeeds.
Not everyone sticks it out.
But the people who do usually have one thing in common — they committed long enough to learn the skills and figure it out.
These are real conversations with real people sharing their experience.

We are starting with 3 featured interviews. Each story shares a different journey, challenge and perspective.

Christy
When Christy was asked what someone who had only seen Brodie Salnitro (Brodie Nitro) online might not know about him after meeting him personally, her answer was simple.
“I think he's a lot softer than you would think. He's very generous and very kind and very thoughtful.”
“He's a good man.”
Christy's answer was recorded during an Online Empires community weekend at Paradise Valley in Glenmaggie, Victoria and was completely unscripted.

Tash
Tash was asked what had stood out to her about Brodie Salnitro (Brodie Nitro) after knowing him personally compared with what someone might see online.
“I think just how willing he is to give back.”
Tash talks about Brodie spending time with people, offering advice and support where he can, and why she believes he is conscious of staying grounded rather than putting himself on a pedestal.

Liam:
Tash, for someone who's personally met Brodie and knows Brodie Salnitro, compared to someone who hasn't met him or has just seen him online, what's something that's really stood out for you?
Tash:
I think just how willing he is to give back.
I mean, this is the thing about not putting people on pedestals and kind of raising beyond that. But I think he's also conscious of not letting himself become that.
He's like, “No, my time is from here. My time is with people, giving back to people,” and just always willing to offer any piece of advice or support or whatever he can, in whatever way.
And I just think that's really grounding.
Matty
Matty had seen Brodie Salnitro (Brodie Nitro) online before meeting him personally. At an Online Empires community weekend at Paradise Valley in Glenmaggie, Victoria, he was asked what had stood out to him after experiencing Brodie and the community firsthand.
“We all see him online and what he does, but to meet him in person... this guy just blew my expectations.”
Matty talks about Brodie's humility, caring nature and willingness to help people within the community work towards their individual goals. He also expresses his gratitude for the support he says he has personally received.

Liam:
Matty, for someone who personally knows Brodie, or Brodie Salnitro, what's something about him that's impacted you that someone online probably doesn't know about him?
Matty:
I honestly haven't met someone so humble as Brodie.
What he has given to us in the community, and just to meet him firsthand — obviously we all see him online and what he does — but to meet him in person, how humble he is, how caring he is, and you see him in the community so willing to help other people just get to where they want to.
We've all got a vision and a goal, and Brodie's there to help us do it.
Firsthand, I'm like, “Wow, this guy just blew my expectations.”
Absolute legend, and forever grateful for your support.
James
James says he has worked with Brodie Salnitro (Brodie Nitro) for almost two years and has also met him in person. At an Online Empires community weekend at Paradise Valley in Glenmaggie, Victoria, he was asked what his personal experience had shown him that someone seeing Brodie online might not know.
“He's hard, but it comes from his heart.”
James talks about initially seeing the success and lifestyle associated with Brodie online, before getting to know him personally. He says what stood out to him was how genuine he found Brodie to be and his willingness to help people. James also describes Brodie as a mentor who can be hard on people, but says that, in his experience, it comes from the right place.

Liam:
For someone who knows Brodie, or Brodie Salnitro, personally, what's something that someone who doesn't know him or has maybe only seen him online wouldn't know?
James:
I think the first thing that came across within an instant was how genuine he actually is.
You'd be surprised — when you see someone online that looks like they know it all and have got all the money and the flashy lifestyle. But you learn to look past it because, with someone of his status, the first thing you'll see is how genuine he actually is and how much he wants to help people.
So I think the main thing for me is how genuine he actually is.
Liam:
And you've personally worked with Brodie?
James:
Yeah, I've been with him for almost two years now.
He's hard, but it comes from his heart. So that's the main thing.
Liam:
Like any good mentor.
And you've met him in person?
James:
Yeah, I have. Love him, man.

Honest perspective
People step away for different reasons. Sometimes the timing is wrong, sometimes the commitment is not there, and sometimes the model simply is not the right fit.
That doesn’t mean the model was right for them — sometimes it simply wasn’t a fit.
At the end of the day, life moves fast. We don’t get unlimited time. For me, I’d rather take a risk, even if it didn’t work, than wonder “what if”. Explore how the model works or read the honest answers.
