Shownotes Transcript

Ken Baden has a story that holds the connotation of being uncommon, this however can't be further from the truth. Growing up Ken wasn't raised in a bad home. He kept up with his fitness and felt he was at the peak of where he wanted to be at the time.  However, an unfortunate car accident changed his life. Ken became dependent on pain pills, and now the people he thought he'd never have anything in common with  became his peers in a very destructive lifestyle. Within that year, Ken went from college to a self-described "criminal" and "degenerate".

Things began to change when Ken realized his knack for sales in general, and selling himself inspecific. In 2015, after his lowest point of being homeless, sleeping  in the woods,  and a run in with death, he committed to changing his life. After 8 months of being clean, Ken went back into sales and has been growing from there every since!

Join us for this incredible story of a man who lost everything, but was able to pull himself together and continue to grow!
