'Kevin Kreider is an Asian American male model, life coach, speaker, fitness trainer, social media influencer, and bodybuilding competitor.  As a child, he was bullied for his skinny figure and race, while struggling with Tourette’s Syndrome. Kevin has won several natural bodybuilding competitions and spoke at TEDx. Now, he helps other Asian American men cultivate their Asian American masculinity through life coaching.  Time Stamps: 0:29 - What was the documentary that Kevin was asked to be a part of?  2:45 - How the same injustices and influence are amplified in the modeling world  4:04 - How would you recommend other Asian Americans handle self-hatred and bitterness other than just feeling sorry for yourself and tearing others down?  9:55 - How to deal with the thought, \"She probably doesn\'t like me\" when you see a beautiful girl  11:00 - How others are going through shit too and the importance of compassion and empathy  11:50 - Will\'s own embarrassing story with racism  14:00 - How what you focus on appears more in the world, how this can hurt you in social media, and how to fix this  14:55 - Kevin\'s negative experience with existing Asian empowerment groups and forums  17:00 - How it\'s okay that it\'s hard at the beginning and how 1 out of 10 is normal for dating  17:53 - How everything changed when he saying being Asian as a strength rather than a weakness  19:44 - Intermittent fasting and social media fasting tips (and how Pat Flynn of SPI does the same thing) and the benefits  22:00 - Can you talk about Asian masculinity and dealing with self-hatred? (How the outer and inner are important. How it\'s not healthy or masculine for your happiness to come from the approval of someone else.)  30:50 - Can you talk more about your experience dealing with the problems Asian American men face in dating? (We talk interracial, Black women, how girls are going through their own shit, thinking for yourself, and more)  37:10 - The small penis stereotype  38:02 - Many Asian American millennial men only care about making more money. Do you think this can be a sign of neglecting other areas of life or other problems?  40:01 - Why the advice \"Just be yourself\" is bullshit and what you should do instead  41:10 - Why making more money alone won\'t solve your problems (and how Kevin found this out the hard way)  45:48 - Do you have any parting tips for Asian American millennial men who accept what you say and want some action steps?  49:30 - How we\'re not seen as cool right now but how we can turn that around (remember a time when comics and superheroes weren\'t cool?)  51:23 - Is there one defining thing that has helped you achieve the success you\'ve had internally and externally?
