Joe & Dylan; 'Come on man, admit it. I am. I'm scared for that son of mine' Hartnell is off for a week and it's down to Anneke and Craze to carry the episode, and guest actor Robert Beatty to come to the fore.

Founder and CEO of the mental health franchise, Zion Healing inc. Robert went from being on top of the world in his 30's as a young millionaire after his company went public. Alcohol and other things took Robert from the top to the bottom, when he was homeless for two years on the streets of Salt Lake City.  After nearly dying, Robert found his way back to the top and has found success in helping other people heal and battle their own addictions. Thanks Robert, you're the man. 

On this week of Real Business Owners, Trevor and Kale bring on Robert Beatty to talk about overcoming addiction. Robert currently runs Zion Healing, a mental health clinic located in St. George, Utah, dedicated to helping individuals get over their addictions and overcome their mental illness. Robert made millions in the film industry, only to fall to rock bottom from addiction. From there he built himself back up and reorientated his life to help others overcome the same experiences he personally went through. In this episode, we take a step back from entrepreneurship and focus on mental health. Together, Robert, Kale, and Trevor will share their experiences that will hopefully shed some light on the path to recovery, resilience, and renewed purpose.

Creating a business and growing it into a success is hard enough. But to then give that up and pursue your passion to write? That takes guts and determination. To then become a New York Times best selling author? Well, that's what Robert Beatty did. Robert joins Adam and Naresh to discuss his journey from entrepreneur to best selling author living near the mountains, as well as how he manages his writing from home with his family life. Robert is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Serafina and Willa series published by Disney Hyperion. Robert writes full-time now, but in his past lives, Robert was one of the early pioneers of cloud computing, the founder/CEO of Plex Systems, the co-founder of Beatty Robotics, and the chairman/CTO of Narrative Magazine. In 2007, he was named an Entrepreneur of the Year. Website: www.RobertBeattyBooks.com Featured Photo by Ben White on Unsplash www.WorkFromHomeShow.com

Robert Beatty and I discuss his many successes in life as a CEO and a writer, as well as his newest novel, WILLA OF DARK HOLLOW. We chat about his working with Amy Adams on the upcoming WILLA OF THE WOOD television show and the process that led to the publication of SERAFINA AND THE BLACK CLOAK. We talk about how writing is a skill and how he learned it, his 15 unpublished novels, the importance of staying bold, competitive fencing, the importance of sheer determination, assembling a publishing team, assembling robots of such quality he and his daughters were commended by President Obama at the White House, and ice cream flavors named after his characters. Robert Beatty is the author of the #1 New York Times best selling Serafina series published by Disney Hyperion, a spooky mystery-thriller about a brave and unusual girl who lives secretly in the basement of the grand Biltmore Estate. Serafina and the Black Cloak was a #1 New York Times best seller, has been on the list for more than 59 weeks, and won the prestigious 2016 Pat Conroy Southern Book Prize. The second book in the series, Serafina and the Twisted Staff, became a #1 New York Times best seller in the first week of its launch and earned a "Starred Review" from Kirkus Reviews, which said, "Even better than its predecessor, a sequel that delivers nonstop thrills from beginning to end." Enjoyed by both young readers and adults, the books are being taught in over a thousand classrooms nationwide. Robert Beatty lives in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina with his wife and three daughters, who help create and refine his stories. He loves to explore Biltmore Estate and the darkened forest trails where his novels take place. He writes full-time now, but in his past lives, Robert was one of the early pioneers of cloud computing, the founder/CEO of Plex Systems, the co-founder of Beatty Robotics, and the chairman/CTO of Narrative Magazine. In 2007, he was named an Entrepreneur of the Year. When asked about the inspiration for his books, Robert said, "Serafina's journey grew out of my desire to write a story about an unusual and heroic young girl for my three daughters."
