From Gunshot to Comeback: Mark Akin's Journey of Survival and Purpose
About this episode
In this episode Mark Akins shares his powerful life story — from childhood abuse, depression, and a near-fatal suicide attempt to homelessness and finally rebuilding his life through trade work, sales, writing, and coaching.
Mark discusses how challenging your perception can free you from anxiety, the lessons he learned from recovery, practical tips for cold calling and sales, and how he now helps others as a perception coach and motivational speaker.
