Keddrain Bowen: Near-Death at 9, Raised 6 Kids, and Built a Coaching Business From the Ground Up

Keddrain Bowen grew up in Washington, North Carolina, earned a football scholarship to Tusculum University, and never left the Tri-Cities. In this episode, he shares the drowning experience at age 9 that shaped his entire worldview, what it looked like to become a teen father and eventually raise six kids, and how he went from selling clothes out of his car to coaching clients around the world. We also go chapter by chapter through his book — covering vision, building a personal board of directors, why you can't share your dream with everyone, and what it actually takes to get out of your own way.
