Survivor has defined Ethan for most of his adult life, but he has shed that label and shifted from surviving to thriving due to the incredible advances in cancer research, technology and survivorship programs.

After a multiple rounds of chemotherapy, 22 blasts of radiation and a failed autologous transplant Ethan was running out of options, scared, confused and he did not want to die. Ethan made the decision to be treated with a drug the FDA was in the process of approving that ultimately saved his life. It was a miracle. And since publicly sharing his two battles with CD20+ Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and two stem cell transplants, Ethan has been named a global ambassador for then Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, StandUp2Cancer, V Foundation, AKTIV Against Cancer, and others.

Ethan discusses the need for research, the importance of scientific advancement and offers much needed perspective and inspiration for any patient, survivor or caregiver ready to thrive in life.

People LOVE reality TV competitions because they can watch others react to the unknown. Contestants are forced out of their comfort zone - will they embrace the experience and learn from these challenges, or give in to the drama and fall apart?

Just like the complex world of corporate America is based on relationships and team building, so are strategy-based TV shows like Survivor and Amazing Race – the relationship with yourself, your coworkers, your boss, your friends and your family.

Ethan is no stranger to overcoming challenges on and off-camera. From losing his father at an early age, to playing pro soccer in the epicenter of the AIDS epidemic, to surviving cancer twice to winning a million bucks on a reality show, he learned incredible lessons about forming relationships, building self- confidence, creating work-life balance, becoming a connected leader, and overcoming obstacles.

Ethan shares his strategies for staying resilient in the face of life’s biggest challenges and creating positive relationships that will help your audience succeed in business and in life.

Ethan knows that building a good team is crucial for cultivating a cohesive and high-performing group that can survive any situation in life and in business.

As a former professional soccer player, successful entrepreneur, two-time cancer survivor and legendary reality TV competitor who won Survivor Africa and has appeared on Survivor All Star, Survivor40: Winners at War, The Amazing Race, Eco Challenge and Fear Factor, Ethan has taken the critical skills he learned from these challenging strategy-based competition shows and packaged them into SURVIVAL TEAM Challenge, The Ultimate Corporate Team Building Event.

Ethan designed and built challenges he used during his time on TV and turned them into dynamic team building activities that will generate supportive, long-lasting relationships for any group. By creating a fun, safe, innovative and stimulating environment, participants will be inspired to learn and grow as they respond to these games.

A combination of physical, mental and social competitions will inspire teams to think in a new way and work on communication, critical thinking, trust-building, problem solving, and more. This experiential team building event, hosted by Ethan, is inclusive of a fireside chat and keynote speech that will illustrate cooperation over competition, leadership and negotiation, group morale, overcoming challenges, service and help to relieve stress through laughter and learning.

The ideal number of participants is no more than 50 people.

The severities of both Ethan’s battles with cancer and its treatment, coupled with the debilitating anxiety of his cancer coming back post- treatment, led Ethan to explore cannabis and CBD as a form of palliative care.

The relative scarcity of safe, controlled options for cancer patients and other sufferers of acute illnesses, compounded by the overwhelming misinformation in a fast-growing legalized marketplace about use of CBD and cannabis, spurred Ethan to go public with his story and advocate for common sense use, regulation and education.

Ethan is the global brand ambassador for Trulieve Cannabis, the largest cannabis retailer in the USA with 160 dispensaries in 13 states. He has also taken an active consulting role with EO Care, a personalized clinician and research guided approach to medical cannabis care. He leads the efforts on programs to help educate and support industry initiatives while creating partnerships with research institutions and charitable organizations that best align with the overall purpose and goals.

This inspired Zohn to co-founded Safe Roots Foundation, an innovative sport based teenage substance misuse prevention program for adolescents and sports coaches. What’s more, the mission to counter misleading information, allows Ethan to use his personal narrative as and be a megaphone for those who may benefit from CBD and cannabis safe use and practice.
