Description

Kashaun comes to us from the warm city of Atlanta, GA where he is a motivational speaker, exceptional author and founder of Champion Nation - an organization dedicated to transforming the lives of men, women and children everywhere. It felt like two friends having coffee discussing all about the healing and wellness spaces. After sharing his history from childhood on, Kashaun dives into some of his favorite topics - the ABC’s of self-motivation, ‘we are built to last’ story and reality, and the 5 C’s to building confidence and self-esteem. Hanging with Mr. Cooper has never been so much fun! I look forward to hanging out with him again and getting some more pearls for my divorce men over 40. Kashaun uses the metaphor of a tree and its leaves to illustrate resilience and the importance of staying connected to something greater while addressing common misconceptions and roadblocks to healing and wellness.

Takeaways:

-becoming the man of the house at a young age can shape one's life and instill a sense of responsibility and protection

-the five C's to building confidence and esteem are courage, commitment, communication, competence, and consideration

-loving oneself is essential for personal growth and well-being

-considering things from every angle allows for a more comprehensive understanding of situations and promotes better decision-making

-it takes courage to look at the mirror

-four stages of life

-find out what your burning desire is

-failure is not final

-Spirit Airlines, touch and go

-don’t rush the process

-roadblock of time and/or money

-A=B, B=C, then A=C

About DON'T PICK THE SCAB PODCAST

Success, Divorce, and Reinvention—You’re Not Alone.

Divorce can shake even the most accomplished men to their core, no matter their age or status.
