Meet Alex Warren Jr of One 8ty Movement in South LA

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alex Warren Jr.

Alex, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
The One 8ty movement is me (Alex Warren Jr). It’s my life experiences poured into the brand, What started as just a bodyweight goal (In Nov 2019) of mines that quickly blossomed into so much. Often times we talk about the 360 Turn (Which is a complete circle back to your original self), but not much about the 180 Turn (Which requires to transform leaving something old behind, to progression towards something new. The One 8ty has turned into mentorship in the following categories: spiritual, investing, and fitness sought out by individuals worldwide.

Has it been a smooth road?
If everything was a smooth road a lot more people would be doing this. Personal Branding is in my opinion one of the toughest things to do. Here’s why simple there is no tangible product or service that you are offering people (Meaning something that they can touch right away). Personal branding takes true belief in oneself and the value that you believe you can bring to people. One of my favorite quotes is “it’s not that we lack talent, skill, or creative ideas, it’s the simple fact that we live in obscurity” (no one knows who we are, what we do, and how good we do.) The to get out is through personally branding yourself.

We’d love to hear more about your work and what you are currently focused on. What else should we know?
What the movement is all about is Awakening the Potential Dormant in You. There is so much greatness inside of humanity but most people never realize how great they could be until someone shows them. Often times people abuse the platform that they are given or the influence that they have. Meaning what value are you bring to the people that you are influencing, The One 8ty Platform is designed to divinely shaping individuals for the true purpose in life.

Is our city a good place to do what you do?
Los Angles is the city where dreams are made and crushed if not handle properly. The land of opportunity, there is no ceiling to what businesses can do in this city. Not having a traditional brick & mortar makes it easier to expand. Being an entrepreneur, it’s my duty to create opportunities for others. One 8ty Movement will one day be a massive platform for others to exposed to opportunities.
