Summary
Really excited to have Mark & Jeff, creators of IKONICK, a DTC art brand that Scooter Braun and I recently partnered with. We talk about how they started Ikonick, and take a few calls that were absolute fire. Debating with a nursing on whether or not they should pursue the passion that they're aiming for in the medical field, and why blaming the customer never works.
