The Best Finance Podcast

I just finished listening to the latest episode of Breaking Banks and I have to say, it's one of the best finance podcasts out there. The show does an excellent job of breaking down complex financial concepts and making them easy to understand. The guests always provide valuable insights, and I appreciate the practical advice in each episode. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone looking to learn more about the latest trends in the world of finance!

Love Breaking Bankds

Allison Netzer and Liz High touchpoint on branding really hits home. Realizing when you're building a brand, you do not have to cater to everyone just specific people with a specific need. I love that.
