Today, Rob Rowsell is a successful entrepreneur. It wasn’t always that way, however. Once, he was homeless, living on the streets, and being in jail more than he was out of it. Rob then stumbled into rehab. By the grace of God, he recovered from his addictions to alcohol, crystal meth, and cocaine. Once he got sober, things changed.
Rob went from buying an auto repair shop with zero money out of pocket and growing his business to five shops, and eventually realizing his $10-million exit plan. Rob is now a successful entrepreneur, investor, and author of the book ADDICTED TO LIFE! How I Went from Homeless to Extraordinary Success and Happiness in a Short Period of Time.
When you join today’s conversation, you will be inspired by Rob’s heartfelt stories of both struggle and redemption.

Notable quotes from this successful entrepreneur
“We can only handle so much. If God somehow revealed to us everything we needed to know to get from A to Z, then we wouldn’t even begin the journey. So I just began the process.”
“The law of exposure says that you are what you hang around. Whatever you hang around, you will become.”
“For any change to happen in your life, you’ve got to be done with the old life, the old behavior, the old habits – so bad, that the pain to change is less than the pain to remain the same.”
