Today we have another great episode lined up for you. My guest and I originally met back in December 2021, as a part of a business coaching community that we are both in. When I met him, he was still working a job while beginning to build his business on the side. The transformation that this guest has had since then, is impressive to say the least. I look up to this guy and all that he stands for. I respect him as so many do, as a husband, father, and entrepreneur. He’s an incredible golfer, and one of the hardest working people that I know.

Today we have another great episode lined up for you. It’s an in person episode here in the studio, at Half Coast Studios. My guest and I originally connected online last year, and met up for coffee shortly after realizing we have a lot of the same values and outlooks on life and business. I was a guest on his podcast, and have continued to follow and support him along the way. He is as real as they come, which is a breath of fresh air, because we all know with social media, a lot of people aren’t who they say they are. Today’s guest is Mike Kitko. He is the Founder and CEO of Inner Wealth Global, a personal and professional development company which helps business owners create more wealth, success, and happiness in their lives and businesses. Through coaching, training, and other needle-moving content, Inner Wealth helps business owners keep their eyes on what they really want - a fulfilling life which includes health, wealth, powerful relationships, and a lifestyle they're excited to wake up to every day. I had every material thing that I ever dreamed of, but I was suicidal. I wouldn't seek support because I was scared to let anyone know I didn't have it all figured out. I was a Marine veteran, a Fortune 500 executive, and I was supposed to be a powerful leader, right? The truth was that I had a toxic relationship with alcohol, I was 300 pounds of undisciplined chaos, and I was an abusive husband and father. I was in so much pain inside and I didn't want anyone to know, so I punished those around me to try to feel powerful. Hurt people hurt people. In March of 2016 I was fired from my second significant executive position in 20 months because I just kept so many secrets, and kept all of my struggles to myself. I led organizations of hundreds of people, but I couldn't lead myself or my own family. I reached the breaking point. When everything fell apart I had to relearn how to live. I had to create internal results - where I had only sought external results before. I thought titles and wealth could fix everything. I was wrong. I started from scratch by hiring a coach. I shared all of my pain, fears, doubts, and concerns, and we began separating all of the mental and emotional noise from reality. We implemented basic elements of physical, mental, and emotional health into my life. I read hundreds of books per year. I learned to create an intentionally healthy and purposeful life. I learned a new way to live. I learned how to feel because I was taught not to feel and that feelings and emotions are weak. The truth is that stuffing emotion is weak, and there's strength in vulnerability. Over time I learned to be real, raw, and vulnerable, and to expose all of my struggles and pain. I documented my story in my first book The Imposter In Charge so that there were no longer secrets, and so that I could finally take off my mask. I could breathe because I stopped fearing being found out. I found the internal personal power that I always thought I would find outside. I rebuilt my life with my family, and learned how to lead - not expect, manipulate, control, guilt, and shame them as I had learned. Finally, I found my own purpose in the world to lead thousands to new levels of success, happiness and freedom. My life is completely different today than just a few years ago, and each day I wake up on fire for life. I put my self-care first, my purpose next, and my family reaps the rewards of my powerful presence, purpose, and time and financial freedom. Purpose and passion create powerful lives, relationships, and income. But we must be willing to step out of the shadows and finally lead through stewardship, respect, and love of everything we touch.

She scaled her business, then went back and bought the company she was fired from. Skeptics and competitors said she would bankrupt the company and herself within six months.
