Ep 45: From Rock Bottom to Vertical Momentum: 'Comeback Coach' Richard Kauffman Shares His Journey...

Share episode

Today on Living Big Mindfully I am excited to connect with Richard - also known as the Comeback Coach - through his books and his massive podcast Vertical Momentum - Richard has helped hundreds of thousands of people.

So, two things: Richard has an incredibly powerful story and this is a MUST LISTEN conversation.

We take a deep dive into:

  • Recovering Identity
  • Deciding to live
  • Addiction…
  • Choosing sobriety
  • And the power of writing obituaries.

Richard talks openly about his history, his story, and his mantra “Today I decide…”

Want to learn more about living intentionally and the power of mindset and gratitude?

Then bookmark this episode because this show is also packed with so many actional tips and strategies to help you say 'no', set intentions, and find that moment of choice – which I believe we can all access.

No surprise, Richard wraps it all up with some powerful sage advice…

And, HUGE!!!  Richard is offering listeners a Gift copy of his book and a FREE coaching call (link in the show notes). Something I’ll be taking advantage of for sure. I encourage you to as well. This is a real opportunity!

Richard is the real deal. No fluff, no BS, no strings… so grateful to be able to share this conversation with you today!

Lastly, a couple of quick announcements:

You know, everything we do here - from the podcast, to the books, to the communities - is all about supporting and inspiring you to live a longer, stronger – more intentional life!

Today’s conversation checks all those boxes and so much more😊
