Reverend Hayes shares his CEO story, explaining that he started his entrepreneurial journey as a gangster rapper in college, producing music with his friends and selling tapes. After graduating, he felt the desire to do more and switched to Christian rap, selling his music while also doing ministry and preaching. Over the years, he gained traction through social media, YouTube, speaking engagements, and even television appearances. Reverend Hayes then authored a book focusing on the principles of brotherly love.
As a transformational business, Reverend Hayes focuses on using various mediums to connect people to Christ and make a positive impact on their lives. His secret sauce lies in his ability to make connections and correlations, effectively communicating and translating the teachings of the Bible for people to grasp.

I strongly recommend and I would hate to think what my life would be like if I did not have that moment every morning to just start my day in mindfulness to use that language or to just center yourself, whatever term or phrase you want to use.
But for me, it's having that devotional time with the Lord.

Hello, this is Gresh from the I AM CEO podcast and I appreciate you listening to this episode. If you've been listening this year, you know that we've hit 1600 episodes at the beginning of this year. We're doing something a little bit different where we're repurposing our favorite episodes around certain categories, topics, or as I like to call them, business pillars that we think are going to be extremely impactful for CEOs, entrepreneurs, and business owners, just like you, what I like to call the CB nation architects who are looking to level up their organizations.
This month, we are focusing on CEO Hacks and CEO Nuggets. This is by far one of my favorite questions I asked on the show. In other words, I asked, what are the apps, books, and habits that make you more effective and efficient. Those were the CEO hacks. Then I asked for a word of wisdom or a piece of advice or something that you might tell your younger business self if you were to hop into a time machine. Those were the CEO nuggets. That's what we'll focus on this month and some of this top ones that can instantly impact your business.
I love all the questions, but with every episode I felt I would walk away with something I could look at and implement, right there to save the precious resources, time and money, or I would also learn about the advice, tips and tidbits or tools of the trade on how to level up our organization. So you'll hear some of these this month. So sit back and enjoy this special episode of the I AM CEO podcast.
