I’ve known Monica for almost 20 years and it’s been amazing to see all of the amazing work that she and Ethan have done with their S4G/ZC brand since its inception.

Thanks, Monica. Can’t wait til the next episod... more

I just found this podcast last night. I was searching for entrepreneur podcasts and came across this one. When I say value bombs have been dropped on every podcast I’ve listened to so far, I had to come and write a review. The icing on the cake is that I haven’t heard any PAID ADS!!! Thank you for that, and that’s another reason I wanted to write a review, bc I was able to listen without being interrupted every few minutes. I’m loving it 🤩
