About this listen
Not many natural-born networking gurus go as hard as Gary Su, while somehow remaining so consistently sweet. Breaking onto the scene as the formative manager and "confidant" of the multi-award-winning musical prodigy Jon Batiste (The Late Show with Steven Colbert), Su (Gary-get it?), has since organically amassed a huge network of contacts, which DK Kim, an experienced marketing and sales professional, has since leveraged into a widely-read, bi-weekly newsletter and now, a new web-application, SugaryNYC. On this episode, the duo talks about connecting over fitness during the Covid years and how "everything in moderation" shouldn't just be a dreamy aphorism for busy New Yorkers. The deeper lesson is how Americans, regardless of their place of origin, must contend with the highly-pressurized mandate to consistently capitalize everything in their lives-from hobbies to human contacts. This has perhaps become normalized to the point of conscious erasure, but what does this mean for our minds, bodies and souls? How do we prevent one or all elements of this human trifecta from burning out? What does it mean to shepherd natural, superstar talents as well as artists who need a little more hands-on advocacy and support? DK Kim and Gary Su (Salty & Sweet respectively) share all they've learned about collaboration, networking, community building, events-planning, promotion, and a whole lot more.
