EP 78: Rick Bayuk - 12 Steps to Transformation

Meet Rick Bayuk, author of "12 Steps to Transformation: Moving Beyond a Recovery Mindset to an Empowerment Mindset." Rick is a Mindset Recovery Coach, speaker, entrepreneur, and founder of Amplified Mindset Consulting. Clean since 1990, he has spent more than three decades helping men move beyond addiction—not simply by remaining sober, but by transforming the way they think, live, and see themselves.  In his powerful new book, Rick reimagines the traditional Twelve Steps as a pathway not only for recovery, but for anyone ready to break free from limiting habits, unhealthy patterns, guilt, shame, and self-sabotage. His approach helps people shift from feeling broken or stuck to living with greater clarity, confidence, purpose, and personal responsibility.  Join John and Joyce for an honest and inspiring conversation about recovery, identity, mindset, and the courage it takes to stop living from past mistakes and begin becoming the person you were always meant to be. This episode is for anyone who is ready to move from survival into empowerment—and create lasting transformation from the inside out.

Now back in Connecticut, David serves at Vox Church in New Haven as the Global Missions Director and Pastor of Discipleship. In this conversation, we talk about faith, calling, courage, service, and what it means to follow a purpose that is bigger than yourself.
