Constructing Greatness

From Rock Bottom to Rocking his Life with Kyle Depiesse


Listen Later

Just because we can do something doesn't mean we should do it; Kyle Depiesse learned that the hard way. He went for a degree in business administration and started working on finances because he was good with numbers. He got into the corporate world and began pursuing what he was taught to, climb the corporate ladder, work for the next promotion, be the first to get there, and be the last to leave. After 13 years of that insane race, he ended up exhausted, in debt, and burned out. He and his wife decided to regroup, and as a first step, he was promoted to a stay-at-home dad, which was his first step into his transformation.


Kyle Depiesse is an Experience Creator, Podcaster, Adventure and Fulfillment Coach, and Community Builder. He is the Creator and Founder of the Reaching Beyond Experience, where he helps people achieve their highest level of fulfillment in how they connect with others and themselves and build their careers. Kyle is the host of the Reaching Beyond podcast, a loving father, and husband. 


In this episode, Kyle shared his journey from being an exhausted man in the corporate world to a successful entrepreneur. He explained his view on people's lives and how we decide when is the right time to start something new. Kyle talked about the lessons he learned along the way working in toxic environments, and he also gave his take on finding what we are passionate about and working on it.
