Victor Braca on Founding Momentum, Interviewing Billionaires, & Reaching 500k Views
Description
In this special episode, Marshall Mizrahi (my 3rd-ever guest) interviews me (Victor Braca, aka your host) about my journey starting and growing Momentum.
I open up about how my “cute side project” changed my life, how I went from idea to execution in just 5 days, and some of the funniest stories from my time hosting Momentum. Plus, Marshall puts me on the spot with a challenge to match memorable quotes to the guests who said them.
Enjoy!
