More about Ethan King:
Ethan King built a life that proves it’s possible to have it all, on your terms. What started as a college project designing custom gear for his fraternity grew into a thriving apparel empire, Zeus’ Closet, with clients that would one day include Grammy-winning artists and global brands.
But it hasn’t all been smooth sailing. When a legal battle nearly sank his business, Ethan taught himself how to systemize, simplify, and scale. The result? He came back stronger, with half the staff and double the revenue.
That mindset now fuels everything he teaches.
A bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and co-host of the King Moves podcast, Ethan shares what he’s learned about entrepreneurship, mindset, and mastering your own story. He’s lived every part of the founder’s journey, and he brings that lived wisdom to every stage, workshop, and conversation.
If you’re chasing big things, feeling stuck, or just need proof that you can win without losing yourself, Ethan’s the guy you want to listen to.
