In this personal vlog, 22‑year‑old Nathan Miller recounts his journey from a modest upbringing in a pastor’s family to a life of financial success and spiritual fulfillment. He describes growing up moving across four states, trying to make the high‑school baseball team, and experiencing repeated cuts that left him insecure. Rejecting the traditional college path, he experimented with online ventures such as crypto mining, SMMA, and dropshipping. A pivotal moment came when he deliberately placed his trust in God while driving past his father’s church, which he says healed personal and family struggles and sparked a deeper work ethic. He details his grind at Chipotle, his first $10,000 month, and a breakthrough product that scaled to multi‑seven‑figure revenue, allowing him to move into a $5 million house with like‑minded entrepreneurs he found through a Twitter post by Charlie Cannon. Throughout, Nathan emphasizes that his faith continually guides him through setbacks, and he aims to inspire viewers to commit to God and pursue their own growth.

Yo, what's going on guys? I haven't made a video in a while, but I wanted to make this video for a while. And the reason why I wanted to make this is because I never really shared my story, my faith. And if you guys don't know about me, my name is Nathan Miller. I'm 22 years old. And over the past few years I've really just completely changed my life. I went from working at food service, making 15 bucks to $20 an hour, and then now I'm living in a $5 million house with a group of like minded individuals, making a lot of money, really just enjoying life and be able to exercise my freedom, travel and really live the way I've always wanted to live. And just to give you guys some context, I did grow up in the church. My dad is a pastor. And so I always grew up with the influence of Christianity and the influence of coming to church and learning about the gospel, learning about the Bible and everything. But I'm a firm believer that your relationship with God is something you have to build on your own and with your own intent. And because I was a kid, I wasn't super interested in all that. Just growing up naturally I wanted to play video games, I wanted to just have fun, I wanted to mess the roof around. I didn't really care my relationship with God that much. Still prayed and I still did things here and there. But I wouldn't say I had faith really. I really didn't have a strong faith at all. And so that's kind of what happened growing up. And I moved around a lot because my dad's job and just because how what happened during our lives and everything. I ended up moving four different states around the us. The last state that I moved to was New York and I moved there my freshman, before my freshman year of high school. It was a very interesting time to move to somewhere new because you're the new kid in the high school. You don't really have any friends. And so that was an interesting period of my life. And the way I was able to make friends and actually get along with people was through playing baseball through like kind of interest. That's really what connected me with my friend group. First year, you know, good, like baseball for the school and everything, playing travel, baseball, it was pretty well. And I do have like a decent season and everything and it's great, I'm making friends and everything and. But after the next year when I tried out, I got cut and that was really hard. That a lot of the relationships That I built a lot of the friends I built. And being a new kid, it kind of isolated me a lot and made me feel very insecure and very. In a very bad mental space and just completely lowered my confidence from then forward. I made the decision that actually I'm gonna try out again next year. My grandma likes spending a lot of money every month to get me in this really nice program. They had their own facility baseball program. And I would go after school every day, train, try to get back and improve. Did that for like a whole like months or like a year or something like that. And then the next year when tryouts came, I tried out again and I still got cut. To give you context, twice sucks because one, you go into tryouts and like nose. You're the kid that got cut last year. And it's very. Gave me autonomy, put me in a very low spot. Not only that, I also like up playing baseball. My dad played baseball, my uncle played baseball. Like college. We grew up watching. Baseball is my favorite sport. It's my dad's favorite sport. So I already had wanted to play in college like them. They didn't necessarily pressure me, but I definitely pressured, at least put pressure on myself to perform so that I could live up to their potential and live up to that. And it didn't work out. And I remember after getting cut, like sitting in my car and I was crying and I was like so sad because I didn't what this was happening. I thought that was going to be my future. I thought I was going to go to college and play baseball. That is what I wanted. I really, really didn't understand why it was happening. But just to fast track my journey to here, you know, I was like 17 years old, then finished out high school. Around the end of high school, kind of started watching all these YouTube videos about from like Baza, from like Welch, and from all these like people who did make money online. And I saw that was an opportunity. And I always knew that like, I didn't really want to go to college because I didn't want to be a doctor. I didn't want to be someone needed to go to college, like a lawyer or a doctor. I want to go to college. It'd be for some like, degree. Why are you learning business in college? Like literally real guys, if you want to learn business, start a business or get into it. I'm living proof of that. You guys didn't know, so that's kind of that. And I knew I didn't want to go to college and I Started seeing these videos, I was like, I think I'm not going to go to college and I'm going to make something happen online. I didn't know what it was at the time. I remember I was doing like built like a crypto mining rig. I did like in crypto. I tried like smma. I did like all stuff basically once I graduated from high school that was my plan. It really isolated me from my friend group at the time because all of they were doing college right? They were off to college. They were parents were super proud of them. They were doing all these great things and I felt super isolated and kind of it put me in a great opportunity to put my faith in God. I remember I was just driving past the church that my dad pastors at in the town that used to live in Webster, New York and I was like, you know what? I think I'm just going to put it all. I'm going to see what happens because I'm always a pretty risky guy and I like to just do things and see where they go. And so I was like, you know what? I've never really truly put my faith completely in God and what the Bible preaches. So I started doing that and I started to do that and it at first really helped me with a personal issue, a family issue that I had. It really helped me overcome that and really just cleansed that hole that I had and in my spirit and in my soul and just completely healed me from that. And then you know, started to become such a different person. I started hitting the gym, I. I started working super hard at my job at Chipotle, started building a work ethic and then from then on it just kept going on and on and on and I keep growing deeper and deeper faith because good things would just keep happening. And then I will continue to test that faith and go for bigger things. And I started doing E commerce, I started doing dropshipping and that was really hard. It took me like a find any success. But then I found success at the perfect point. I my first 10k month at the perfect time when I was being forced to move out because my parents were downsizing. I was had a lot of pressure on me. I didn't know what I was going to do and God came in clutch for me and then like I'm a story already that's kind of went all in on E Comm. Had a few really bad months, had some ups and downs and then got into a really tough financial position where basically if the next product I ran didn't work out, I was going to have to get a job which I really didn't want to do and came in and blessed me again. And he helped me to find this product that I scaled super, super in, you know, multi seven figures and then now God, you know, all that. You know, I scaled this product super hard and I just made kind of an E Com. I wouldn't say made it, but I made a lot of progress and was able to travel and do all this stuff from it. Made some connections. I knew it was time for me to leave my hometown but I didn't know I was going to go. Didn't know really anyone. I didn't want to go to Miami, no offense. Miami is not for me. And I didn't know like what supposed to be at. And I prayed and I prayed. I was like God, please help me to find a like minded group of people who do E Com who believe in you and so I can shoot my faith in you. That's when I stumbled across a Twitter post from Charlie Cannon asking for a roommate to live in this amazing crib. And you know, here for like now or something like that. And in a few, a few weeks now, we're actually moving into even crazier crib which is going to be amazing to show you guys. But basically life in God completely changed my life as you guys can see. I went a skinny fat bomb video game nerd, like antisocial to someone who's really building something and really, you know, their lives and just reaching higher hires all the time. And it's, it's not always going to be, you know, up. There's a lot of bumps, there's a lot of rocky roads for sure. But I have such a deep rooted faith that I've been through so much these past six of my life that I know God has my back and no matter what he throws at me, I know I can handle it. And I just have such a deep faith and it gives me such an advantage. It's almost like I'm unshakable and I get stressed out here and then it happened very often but even when I do, I always fall back on God and he's back. He's always there for me and that, that is just like yeah, it's completely changed my life, guys. Like thinking when I was in the car after tryouts and I was crying and I was so disappointed, I was so embarrassed and I was so shamed and I was like what is happening? Like why is happening? It felt like my life was over. But God had a better plan and it's coming into fruition now and it never stops. I never like, everything's good. You know there's going to be things that test your faith and you're like, why is this happening? Why, why is happening now? And always going to be those things. But you like, it just happened so many times at this point. And I've every put my faith in God. It always works out so I know better than to doubt him and to doubt the process. So that's kind of my story about my walk with God, my faith and how it's completely transformed my life. And it's an ongoing thing just getting started. I am at the bottom right now, I believe, of my journey and I'm excited to document and my journey in my future with you guys and show you guys where and how I'm growing and hopefully be a good example and be able to inspire some of you guys to put your faith in God as well. Thank you guys for watching. This is one of many videos that are going to be hoping to do some more this month, so just stay tuned for that. But love you guys. Peace.
