Have you ever felt conflicted in terms of which career passion to pursue?
Rich Goldstein is a highly successful patent attorney and founder of Goldstein Patent Law. He works with entrepreneurs to help them protect their ideas, products, and brands with patents and trademarks, and over the past 28 years has obtained more than 2,000 patents for his clients.
Rich hosts The Innovations and Breakthroughs Podcast and is the author of the ABA Consumer Guide to Obtaining a Patent, published by the American Bar Association.
Rich is also trained as a transformational coach and course leader, and previously served as CEO of Arete, which conducts weekend transformational retreats.
In this episode, Rich explains why he chose a career in patent law, how it led him to the transformational space, and how he later managed to blend his two passions into a hybrid career he truly loves.
You don’t need to quit your job to become a coach. As Rich demonstrates, you can have the best of both worlds and provide greater value to your clients than either career could ever offer.
