521. Rich Roll Makes His Process Public: Purpose, Sobriety and Partnership

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik May 31, 2022 Duration: 1:26:05
Rich Roll is an inspiration, both in the general sense and in a very specific way. Believe it or not, his podcast played a big part in K+L launching Almost 30. After years of struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, Rich turned his life around to become an award-winning ultra endurance athlete, vegan advocate, best-selling author, and host of the incredible Rich Roll Podcast. You may have heard his story before, but this conversation pushes him to go a little deeper on some less-explored details. Rich goes into his personal journey including his marriage with Julie and their financial collapse, alcoholism as it relates to the sober-curious movement, finding purpose and what that means, and picking apart the 12-step program of Alcoholics Anonymous as it relates to a spiritual experience.  It’s a super dynamic conversation with someone who’s accomplished so much in life. You won’t want to miss it.
