Ever wondered how someone can bounce back from losing everything? In this episode of the HOME Podcast, Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker sit down with James Altucher, an entrepreneur and writer who knows a thing or two about hitting rock bottom and climbing back up. Altucher has founded 20 companies, many of which failed spectacularly, and faced a personal crisis that saw his bank account plummet from $15 million to just $143.
He lost his house, friends, and even contemplated ending his life. But instead of giving up, he turned his experiences into a successful blog and authored a dozen books, including the acclaimed 'Choose Yourself'. In a candid conversation, Altucher talks about his battles with addiction, depression, and the radical steps he took to rebuild his life—like selling all his belongings and embracing minimalism. He shares quirky details like his 4:00 a.m.
