Leon Hill aka Leon The Alchemist: Bio Alchemy, Self-Love & Making $1 Million On Social Media
Leon Hill, formerly @leonthealchemist, went from growing up on a farm with solar power and no internet to starting a social media marketing company at the age of 23 and making $1 million in the first 9 months.
After creating viral digital marketing campaigns for some of the world’s biggest brands, he’s shifting his attention to biohacking. On his podcast Bio Alchemy, Leon has conversations with some of today’s top thinkers in the field.
I first got to know Leon Hill as the “handsome boyfriendo” of Sorelle Amore on YouTube, but after seeing the words “biohacker, herbalist, entrepreneur” on his Instagram profile, I knew I had to have him as a guest.
Leon is a beautiful example of living a life in which we’re connected to ourselves, our spiritual growth and the Earth underneath our feet, and at the same time use social media to create success and freedom. This episode is a special one and contains powerful inspiration and practical wisdom on how to build a brand in today’s social media landscape.
