Manage episode 401884451 series 2933210
Avi's journey is one of personal transformation and resilience. Despite facing challenges and struggling with feelings of worthlessness and inadequacy in his early life, Avi has emerged as a licensed realtor, professional salesperson, best-selling author, and three-time ax-throwing champion. His background includes a love for sports such as football, ultimate frisbee, and ping-pong, as well as an interest in video games, documentaries, and solving the Rubik's cube.
Growing up in an environment that was not conducive to his well-being, Avi faced academic struggles and was later diagnosed with Bipolar Type I and Major Depressive Disorder as a young adult. Despite joining the US National Guard to escape feelings of shame and contribute to his country, Avi found himself still grappling with personal challenges, including issues related to substance abuse and a sense of being at rock bottom.
However, his journey took a turn when he embraced his role as a self-starter, independent learner, and resilient survivor. Avi used his experiences and rejection as fuel for personal growth, eventually channeling his energy into writing. What started as documenting his childhood experiences transformed into thirty titles, showcasing his evolution into life coaching. Today, Avi is a public speaker who aims to inspire others, particularly those struggling with business, life, and mental health. His mission is to help individuals discover the champion within themselves, emphasizing that true success is not about winning for personal gain but about empowering others to achieve their potential.
