This is Episode 20 of the VulnerABLE Podcast!Growing up was pretty normal, but in his teen years he'd realize that nothing comes to you in life without hard work. Now he's the co-founder of Ikonick, inspiring people through art and stories!His childhood was great, he had amazing and supportive parents, and never really experienced anything out of the norm. School would tell him that he wasn’t the smartest kid, and at one point he was even tested for ADD. He knew deep down inside that he was intelligent, but just didn’t know how to apply it. In his teen years he began to realize that life won’t happen for you. After not being put on the player watch list for the local soccer club in his senior year of high school, he realized hard work was necessary for getting the results he wanted. This would present itself again when he pledged for his fraternity in college. Moving forward accountability and hard work became his key focuses to start producing the results he wanted. In his 20s he took a LEED certification, simply to prove to himself that he could do something he knew nothing about. Now he considers himself a life long learner, and entrepreneur who is passionate about inspiring and motivating others through stories. He’s the co-founder of Ikonick, a high quality canvas art company using their art and stories to inspire, and this week they’re releasing their own podcast called Blank Canvas.For more information on Mark Brazil you can follow him on social media or visit his company's website:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markbrazil/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markmastrandrea/Website: https://ikonick.com/
