This is the problem with our community is we act so hard when we want to but when it’s time for showtime, we want everyone to be soft with us. Donnie was adding value here because the lady needs to sharpen up, which is why she came to the show. This is why we can’t get better as a community is because we just love to each other at the wrong time and then be toxic and hard at the wrong time also.
You can give tough criticism without being flat out disrespectful. I’m the number one advocate for tough love, but it seems like Donni was performing for the camera
Yea definitely performed for the camera…she even seemed uneasy..the stroking of her hair…the over blinking..lol and seemed a bit fake peeformative idk maybe if it wasnt being recorded she could relax into herself…she seemed to be too self conscious here
This was good!!! I’m convicted sheesh!! Liberty, I applaud you for being in the hot seat and being transparent. David and Donnie thank you for that tough love!!
Donni and David's coaching styles are different. If you are uncomfortable with someone being all in your ass about your business, Donni is simply not the coach for you😢. I will admit, a few of her comments were mean and unnecessary, "dave u wanna laugh?" She can definitely achieve her objective with her style of coaching without also making u feel like a blatant idiot to your face!😮. I love the format of the show, I will definitely watch this because the advice was spot on
This video is hard to stomach smh …definitely see the importance of clarity. I just not feeling the delivery. If the person in the hot seat got something from it , then awesome.
This was so good and so needed for myself! Thank you Donni & David for asking the hard questions to help all of us as entrepreneurs. This hot seat alone helps bring self awareness and to realize what we are doing and what we aren’t doing in our business.
These "enlightenment conversations" are so mean-spirited. How is this encouraging for anyone who wants to build anything and is seeking guidance? I don't understand this type of "coaching."
I feel like some people need these hard conversations to get them to the next level, especially if you’ve been in the same business for years with no progress like this woman.
@@922tigerbabyDonni made it cringey. David does a great job of dishing out tough love but also manages to also keep it light. But I get where Donni was coming from
This was the hottest hot seat ever 😅😅 This video has shown me, you think you know something until you're put in the hot seat !! Thats why its so important to get educated and coaching from someone who knows more than you. You guys are my coaches in my head until I can afford to pay you full price 🙏❤️ Thank you for doing this. Time for me to go deeper within my own business.
I'm confused about why people come on here and try to tell them what they think sounds good..... If you have the opportunity to be in front of 2 individuals who can help you grow, why are we not truthful? Sounds like this young lady should lock in on 1 idea and see it through with the guidance of a professional......
We have got to stop being so sensitive if we are trying to be successful business owners. Anyone who’s made a living from their own business fully understands that this entrepreneurial world is not kind, sweet, or understanding. Customers/clients most of the time are far worse than Donni was because they are parting with their money. If a condescending tone is what would prevent someone from receiving the information, that’s really unfortunate. I hope Donni joins more of the Hot Seat segments, the overall dynamic is awesome in my opinion.
The woman is rude and a bully. That was not coaching. People use the word coach however, coaches partner and are not condescending. There was great information to help Liberty succeed however, the snarls from the women on here is that of a bully. Identify as a consultant and stop calling yourself a coach is my take on the woman. Really, Entrepreneur thotism? Just rude. The gentleman was on point. Both had valuable advice and suggestions. Hopefully, Liberty will chew the meat and throw out the bones.
This is very good.. and I was here before, I had to understand that doing too many things at one time is incredibly dangerous to your business growth. It’s ok to not do ALL THINGS. I only offer what I’m an expert in. Point blank… How can you teach how to be a master at sales if you haven’t mastered your own? This is largely the issue in the beauty industry as well.. If it’s outside of my lane, the answer is NO. Moral of the story: Get Clarity and Stay in Your Lane. Everyone needs to watch this and take notes…
Donnie is such a great bad cop, it looked like she almost made her cry, I think this is what David was aiming for as far as content entertaining & educational 🔥 Love the duo factor on this hot seat take.
Honestly This was hard to watch. But this helped give me so much clarity. Because I see myself in the lady being drilled in this interview. I literally identify with that lady. This has helped me. Thank God. Because I had just asked God to give me clarity and God sent me back to this video. And I’m so grateful because I now have clarity. Donnie was rude tho. Lol. Donnie I get it but Man U were a straight up MEAN GIRL!!! 😢😂
Ima be honest I been watching these non stop for the last few days and this one was the worst cuz donni was just tryna shit on her and give her lil triggering slick shot “I’m getting bored with this conversation” “I call Cap” 🤔🤔 yeah Dave you should handle these for now on break em down then build em up donni just breaks you down and give a lil kick in the stomach to get back up 😭 example 34:01
There’s such a thin line between constructive criticism and outright rudeness. A lot of people hide it under the guise of being “blunt” but you can be stern and still get your point across without being an ass. Some would say you’re weak for seeking guidance without aggression. I just discovered this platform, and love the idea but personally, I won’t be watching episodes that include this lady. Her body language is so off-putting it’s difficult to receive the message. It’s almost too uncomfortable to watch her be so cold. Hopefully Liberty got what she came for
This was good stuff. Yes its entertaining and kinda funny but what if you were in the hot seat? This young lady got a wake up call and great coaching. I definitely learned something today.
Liberty, you communicated @12:50 "It has to work!" Why are you putting so much pressure on yourself? Donni mentioned being stable - I would try getting OJT in the space you're interested in first. You emote and present well, surely you can find gigs in the tech space that pay $10.5K+/mo. -Will
This was good, to know liberty you know she is not confrontational, so this was good because some times you have to be direct. Good job Good cop and bad cop
Donni was needed on this show ‼️I’m guilty of giving confused to, I turned 30,15 days ago & I’m still figuring out all that I want to do to build wealth. I’m just learning from y’all, these yt shows, researching, doing self development atm…I love this, accountability, growth…I’m all the way from Trinidad 🇹🇹…Love y’all platforms etc.
I definitely checked out her Instagram and she’s changed nothing. It’s been 9 months. She seems to be passionate about the AI stuff so that must be where she pivoted too.
she's so nervous but you can tell she is sweet. She can be successful with coaching. Donni is hard but I think she's this way as a coach because she does what it takes to get through to them but from a no sugarcoat or nonsense approach. I know people like her and like David. Some people need to hear it that way to grow
"Laughable." "You don't like me right now, so you?" Hey, here's a suggestion... do not talk to anyone like that again. It's unprofessional. That entrepreneur is there for professional development and improvement on her business. Keep it business. Kudos to her for still being professional; she's clearly a resilient person (based on her personal story as well). Once she focuses, rebrand, and gains clients... she'll be fine. You can be direct and honest without brutality or condescension. You don't need to be sunshine and flowers, just don't be rude. Simple. If you don't know the difference, work on it.
This is the BEST Hot Seat I’ve seen yet! I was sitting here talking to the screen telling Donnie to lighten up a bit. This was hard to watch but soooo needed for Ms. Liberty. I commend her for holding it together…not sure I could have. I’m just starting out as an entrepreneur and this was much needed for myself as well. David and Donnie you are the GOAT. Donnie is no bad cop…she’s a pitbull!! But it shows her passion for coaching and helping entrepreneurs get clear and become productive. Love it! #straightnochaser
Donnie was very necessary had me mad but it HELPED. Thank both of you for this video and I hope this lady learns from this nd actually use this advice because I will and am.
This was a good one. I felt like they were talking to me too (entrepreneur thot here 🙋♂ ) As a person who responds best to tough love I can appreciate the directness. In the end, I think Liberty walked away with some much-needed clarity and a plan to execute. Much respect to her for staying cool in the hot seat
Moments of clarity. Know your lane. Business is on life support without continuous leads and sales. I empathize with Liberty I spent the first year of my business marketing after that I relied on referrals that worked probably worked because I was a healthcare provider and referrals work well in that type of business Now that I have switched gears to teaching and coaching on digital media . This requires different skills with more focus on lead generation and sales instead of referrals
I prefer Donni’s style of getting into the nooks & crannies over David’s training wheel style. When Donni asks a direct question to the guest, then they should pause until the guest answers like the question Donni asked around 20:18 about who she wouldn’t serve. I would have like to hear how she answered, but David interrupted. Overall, love it when it’s both of you together talking to guests.
Was Donni told to be antagonistic and condescending so they can hype up the episode or something? I think they would have still gotten the same answers from the guest without the good cop bad cop agenda. The lady looks scared.
I read the comments first and this video was not as bad as yall made it seem 😂 Donni was being real and telling her what she needed to hear. (Spicy but hey🤷🏾♀️) And honestly she handled it very well. She took the truth and knows the action steps to take. You can not be soft in this entrepreneur game PERIOD. No growth comes from coddling. Great Episode!
I don't care for her tone or body language. She is somewhat nice/nasty. Needs to be just Chance. Seriously, she put Sister on the defense. People are here for help not to be ridiculed.
This was a great episode!...I like to see both styles w/ David & Donni helping on this show. Donni did a great job getting to the point. I don't see it as mean, I see it as direct. It's the HOT SEAT, what do you expect...lol. Thanks for adding Donni to this episode.
I feel like Donni was borderline disrespectful with some of her comments and her mannerism was condescending. There’s a difference between being a tough coach and whatever she was doing. Maybe that’s just how she coaches but I personally would’ve felt disrespected by some of her actions. She also seemed like she was actually coachable unlike many of the people that come on here. Dave is also very direct in his coaching and sometimes might come off as harsh but I’ve never seen him come off as disrespectful not once.
“Laughable” was just cruel. This lady was so kind and didn’t deserve that tone.
I think this interview could’ve been done 1 to 1, the rudeness was unnecessary…
Donni was obnoxious and annoying on this episode... It seemed personal
I'm so proud of her for continuing this conversation without her breaking down. I would have folded 😢
I was ready to cry for her 😂
Geez. This is uncomfortable. Why tear someone down. Good entertainment but horrible self esteem booster.
This is the problem with our community is we act so hard when we want to but when it’s time for showtime, we want everyone to be soft with us. Donnie was adding value here because the lady needs to sharpen up, which is why she came to the show. This is why we can’t get better as a community is because we just love to each other at the wrong time and then be toxic and hard at the wrong time also.
No Donni on the hot seat. It needs to be just you and the guest. No shade on her but not feeling excited about her energy in that space.
I thought Donni was doing to much at first but honestly she was really catching the inconsistencies and calling em out
True she was but was kind of mean. This whole thing was confusing
You can give tough criticism without being flat out disrespectful. I’m the number one advocate for tough love, but it seems like Donni was performing for the camera
No she’s good because she’s going over the numbers which is perfect, David doesn’t help them with numbers
Yea definitely performed for the camera…she even seemed uneasy..the stroking of her hair…the over blinking..lol and seemed a bit fake peeformative idk maybe if it wasnt being recorded she could relax into herself…she seemed to be too self conscious here
This was good!!! I’m convicted sheesh!! Liberty, I applaud you for being in the hot seat and being transparent. David and Donnie thank you for that tough love!!
WE ALL NEED A DONNIE.... Straight to the point, no Bs. A message most need in our lives!
It’s easy to be a bully. Both hosts would crumble if put in the hot seat. It’s always easy to be the bully and in control.
Okay loveofpassion7908 come put them in the hot seat 😂
They wouldn't crumble
Donni and David's coaching styles are different. If you are uncomfortable with someone being all in your ass about your business, Donni is simply not the coach for you😢. I will admit, a few of her comments were mean and unnecessary, "dave u wanna laugh?" She can definitely achieve her objective with her style of coaching without also making u feel like a blatant idiot to your face!😮. I love the format of the show, I will definitely watch this because the advice was spot on
Oooooo I like this concept. Please do more of these. Lol its like judge Judy but for business or shark tank without the funding 😆 🤣
Thank you, Donni and David, for this segment. Thank you, Liberty, for sitting in the Hot Seat! This was definitely a lesson for all entrepreneurs.
This video is hard to stomach smh …definitely see the importance of clarity. I just not feeling the delivery. If the person in the hot seat got something from it , then awesome.

Yeah this was kind of cringey. I get it’s called the hot seat. They were doing alot…I guess that’s the theme 😂
You’re not built for it , but that’s okay , sensitive culture might hold you back and that’s not okay
@@922tigerbabyDonni made it cringey. David does a great job of dishing out tough love but also manages to also keep it light. But I get where Donni was coming from
It's helping ppl face truths. David was light because Donni on her, normally he's hard on these segments, that's the purpose
“LAUGHABLE” is crazy 🤣😳
I empathize with her - because she's nervous, and I think it's adding to her fumbling so much.
This was the hottest hot seat ever 😅😅 This video has shown me, you think you know something until you're put in the hot seat !! Thats why its so important to get educated and coaching from someone who knows more than you. You guys are my coaches in my head until I can afford to pay you full price 🙏❤️ Thank you for doing this.

Yeah, and she seems to lie alot. A lot of black entrepreneurs are like this. They live in delusion.

I agree with everything you stated!
Donnie was too rude. She made it seem like she didn't like her
Donnie is such a great bad cop, it looked like she almost made her cry, I think this is what David was aiming for as far as content entertaining & educational 🔥
Love the duo factor on this hot seat take.
Donnie energy is not it
29:34 Donni is killing me 😂 I feel like I’m in the hot seat
Lol
Fam this is really good!!! This is FREE training that I needed from a distance. ❤
One thing I’ve learned with these HOT SEAT segments, is that ALOT of entrepreneurs are absolutely delusional. I’m learning a lot.
I agree! Helping me to see red flags of my own delusion… 😮😮😮
Definitely got me wondered whether or not I'm delusional in my business.
Honestly This was hard to watch. But this helped give me so much clarity. Because I see myself in the lady being drilled in this interview. I literally identify with that lady. This has helped me. Thank God. Because I had just asked God to give me clarity and God sent me back to this video. And I’m so grateful because I now have clarity. Donnie was rude tho. Lol.

Great episode! Shoutout to David and Donni! Major shoutout to Liberty for taking that seat!
This was beneficial but uhhh its been getting harder and harder to listen to Donnie over the past couple months 🥴😅
There’s such a thin line between constructive criticism and outright rudeness. A lot of people hide it under the guise of being “blunt” but you can be stern and still get your point across without being an ass. Some would say you’re weak for seeking guidance without aggression.

This was extremely helpful. Shout out to Liberty for enduring this tough conversation with dignity.
This was so good. Shout out to Liberty for her braveness!!
This podcast was tough to watch but AMAZING. I learned so much. Please keep those candid raw conversations coming 👏🏾
This is my most favorite one of these y’all have done. I was taking the questions personally myself because I also do a marketing agency.
...30 mins in & THIS IS PAINFUL 🤕😵💫
The tone here was trash. Constructive criticism is one thing but laughing at someone's mistakes or weaknesses is lame.
Rooting for her❤
This was good stuff. Yes its entertaining and kinda funny but what if you were in the hot seat? This young lady got a wake up call and great coaching. I definitely learned something today.
His wife was PERFECT 💯
I appreciate this so much!
Poor girl was shaking nervous the entire episode. 😬 Great episode!
Got so much from this!! Donni’s demeanor is NEEDED to get it done✅
Liberty, you communicated @12:50 "It has to work!" Why are you putting so much pressure on yourself? Donni mentioned being stable - I would try getting OJT in the space you're interested in first. You emote and present well, surely you can find gigs in the tech space that pay $10.5K+/mo. -Will
Just make a video with Donni saying ummmm. Enjoyed Donni but the dynamic is different, prefer David doing the hot seat alone.
Donni is good. Sparring in the ring isn't meant to be easy. This is sparring and training, to get ready for the real fight.
Donni is very helpful idk why everybody is so uber sensitive when shes giving step by step advice, either ur can take it or you cant
This was good, to know liberty you know she is not confrontational, so this was good because some times you have to be direct. Good job Good cop and bad cop
Whew. I feel chin checked. Sheesh… Runs to get my life together
I'll never forget when a VC matchmaker in NYC told me that there was a fund in Harlem, but the businesses (Black) weren't ready.
Not me feeling like I’m in the hot seat. 😅
Donni was needed on this show ‼️I’m guilty of giving confused to, I turned 30,15 days ago & I’m still figuring out all that I want to do to build wealth. I’m just learning from y’all, these yt shows, researching, doing self development atm…I love this, accountability, growth…I’m all the way from Trinidad 🇹🇹…Love y’all platforms etc.
Sheeesshhh this was hard to watch! I definitely would’ve broke lol I am glad I’m watching this though, very helpful!
She needs to hire a sales rep. It appears she is more of a creative than a hustler. And, that's okay.
It’s a thin line from assisting and antagonizing. To those “leaders” remember you ain’t the only rich people. Treat people appropriately.
I definitely checked out her Instagram and she’s changed nothing. It’s been 9 months. She seems to be passionate about the AI stuff so that must be where she pivoted too.
Donni’s face the entire episode 😂😂😂
Great episode! First one I’ve seen with both of you (works a bit better). You guys are very good coaches!
she's so nervous but you can tell she is sweet. She can be successful with coaching. Donni is hard but I think she's this way as a coach because she does what it takes to get through to them but from a no sugarcoat or nonsense approach. I know people like her and like David. Some people need to hear it that way to grow
This was hard to watch because I took away so many lessons for myself. This was a great episode. Thank you, David Donnie and Liberty.

You can be direct and honest without brutality or condescension. You don't need to be sunshine and flowers, just don't be rude. Simple. If you don't know the difference, work on it.
Y’all ain’t have to do her like that. She came across as a liar and a fool. And y’all were cruel.

This was so good. Thank you for those encouraging words at the end David. Itvwas needed.
This was brutal 😢…… but very necessary.
I do not like Donni … now I’m going to fix my consistency 😂😂😂 how dare you call me out 😂
The audio is low
I almost cried for her 😂😂
Donni was like a pitbull. it was overkill
I was little uneasy the lady seems to be trying with the right guidance she can succeed. Blessings to her .
Props to her for doing the hot seat w Dave & Donni! Whew!
The one in one with David is better in my opinion. Two vs one could come off as ganging up on the guests
I can’t wait for my turn in the hot seat! And I want Donni on for sure! If you stay ready you don’t have to get ready is my advice ✨
This was a good one. I felt like they were talking to me too (entrepreneur thot here 🙋♂ ) As a person who responds best to tough love I can appreciate the directness.

Donnie was awesome.
Donni’s attitude is just rude and nasty. I do not like her at all
This should be a TV show!!
Yes !!! It should
Was Donni told to be antagonistic and condescending so they can hype up the episode or something? I think they would have still gotten the same answers from the guest without the good cop bad cop agenda. The lady looks scared.
WheW! This was great. Great feedback. I loooooove Donni & David’s input. The duo is duo’n! ✊🏾
I read the comments first and this video was not as bad as yall made it seem 😂 Donni was being real and telling her what she needed to hear. (Spicy but hey🤷🏾♀️) And honestly she handled it very well. She took the truth and knows the action steps to take.
You can not be soft in this entrepreneur game PERIOD. No growth comes from coddling. Great Episode!
Condescending is never a vibe. Ever.
Donni was meannnnnnn 🤣 but this was extremely helpful 🤞🏽
EXCELLENT CLINIC FOR ALL ENTRY LEVEL ENTREPRENEURS
I don't care for her tone or body language. She is somewhat nice/nasty. Needs to be just Chance. Seriously, she put Sister on the defense. People are here for help not to be ridiculed.
The hot seat is hot boy. Taking notes...
Whew!! Donni plays NO GAMES. lol. 27:42
This was a great episode!...I like to see both styles w/ David & Donni helping on this show. Donni did a great job getting to the point. I don't see it as mean, I see it as direct. It's the HOT SEAT, what do you expect...lol. Thanks for adding Donni to this episode.
She is brave because I would crying!! 😢😭
(Doni 😅) was very professional 😎
She needed this tho!
I feel like Donni was borderline disrespectful with some of her comments and her mannerism was condescending. There’s a difference between being a tough coach and whatever she was doing. Maybe that’s just how she coaches but I personally would’ve felt disrespected by some of her actions. She also seemed like she was actually coachable unlike many of the people that come on here. Dave is also very direct in his coaching and sometimes might come off as harsh but I’ve never seen him come off as disrespectful not once.
Donni you don't need them lashes😫😫
