70. Khalil Rafati | From Abuse, Addiction, and Homelessness to SunLife Organics

Inspired. If Khalil does one thing on this podcast, he’ll leave you feeling inspired.

From growing up experiencing a variety of abusive relationships, to living under a bridge and addicted to nearly everything under the sun, to living a life beyond his wildest dreams… Khalil Rafati shows what’s possible, regardless of one's circumstances.

During this conversation, I asked Khalil if he ever misses the feeling of ‘serenity’ that heroin and other drugs provided him with, and his answer… “No, because I discovered and made peace with the why behind these unhealthy choices – my pain, unresolved trauma, lack of self-worth.” Tune in to learn how he did just this.

Khalil and I dive into…

→ An intimate and vulnerable glimpse into Khalil’s abusive upbringing.

→ The cycle of feeling inferior and how this creates our reality.

→ Making peace with our circumstances and taking responsibility for the present and future.

→ Decoupling from the idea of ‘earning’ love.

→ How he arrived at a place of gratitude and joy post-addiction.

→ The birth of an empire that would change his life: SunLife Organics.
