EP 56: How to Achieve Rapid Growth with Jake Kauffman

For many people, spending $250, 000 on personal growth after they have been let go from the company that they built sounds unthinkable. But for Jake Kauffman, it is what changed his life. After finding himself at rock bottom, rather than staying there, Jake knew that he needed to claw his way out. He looked down the barrel of his fears, did an enormous amount of work, and realized he needed to help others. Jake is now a high-performance coach and a business mentor, and over the last two and a half years, has helped his clients increase their businesses by $15 million. In today’s episode, Jake shares more about his incredible personal growth journey and gives us a look at some of the hard yards he has put in. As someone who has dedicated themselves to learning, Jake knows that growth does not have an end destination and that the higher we climb, the more internal work we will have to do. We also talk about limiting beliefs, the value of investing in yourself, and why we need to let go of our egoic approach to business if we are to succeed.
