“If you’re thinking that it’s not possible to do these things that you want to do, it’s not possible, but if you do open your mind to the possibilities, it will become possible.” – Richie Norton
Do you want to have more time with your family, but it will take 5 years and your 13-year-old child will be 18 and out of the house by the time you’re “free?” Today’s Finding Brave guest is a deeply inspiring individual who shares how you can actually bake your dream into your business model from day one, and it’s possible through “value-based positioning” that he teaches and shares.
Richie Norton is the award-winning, bestselling author of the book The Power of Starting Something Stupid (in 10+ languages) and Résumés Are Dead & What to Do About It. In 2019, Richie was named one of the world’s top 100 business coaches by Dr. Marshall Goldsmith. He is an international speaker (including TEDx & Google Startup Grind) and serial entrepreneur.

Executives and celebrities alike seek out Richie to create new value-based products/experiences for their audiences.
Not only is this a conversation about tipping time in your favor and creating your dream life and business now, but it’s also a story about someone who has overcome extreme adversity and overcome personal trauma in life and is impacting the world in a powerful way.
