From Mess To Message: Living A Life Of Legacy With Richard Kaufman, #710
There’s no single soul in this world that hasn't had a struggle, had their own storm, and got out of it eventually.
But we’re only human… and we can only take so much.
So what do you do when everything feels too much and you can’t handle it anymore?
You ask for help - but from whom?
That’s the life’s purpose of our episode’s guest today, Richard Kaufman, to be that helping hand for people who are struggling with so much but feel alone.
He used to be in the US Army but got discharged because of his injury - and there he lost his own way.
In today’s episode, Richard shares how his heart has grown because of his storms, and what living the ultimate life is for him. Problem after problem, he got tougher and tougher and now, he’s on a mission to be that shoulder anyone can cry on.
Through the mess he went through, he found a message and a purpose - and that might be the same case for you.
How do you overcome struggles? How can you figure out who you really want to be? How do you show up amidst the difficulties?
