He was temporarily paralyzed — and he never let it stop him from moving toward his purpose. In this episode, Royal Boles sits down with comedian and content creator Floss The Mack for a raw, funny, and unexpectedly deep conversation about setbacks, consistency, and finding your purpose in the most unexpected places — including a bathroom mirror.
In this episode, Floss opens up about:
✅ Why he'd describe his life right now as "overwhelming" — and why that's a good thing
✅ How talking to bathroom stalls in a mental health facility bathroom turned into a viral career
✅ The characters fans love most — Tracy, Angela, and Grumpy — and how they were born
✅ Why he calls himself a "big procrastinator" and how he still stays consistent
✅ Being a middle child and the years-long fight to figure out his own identity
✅ Handling negative comments and staying grounded despite the fame
✅ What he wants people to know about who he really is off camera
✅ His advice to his younger self: be patient, give yourself grace, and get comfortable being uncomfortable
If you've ever felt like your setback might be the end of your story, this episode is proof it might just be the beginning.
