696 Gregg Champion: Founder of Start Up Recovery

On this episode of The Kara Goldin Show, we’re joined by Gregg Champion, Founder of START UP RECOVERY & WELLNESS—a powerful recovery and reinvention center designed for entrepreneurs, creatives, athletes, and high-performers ready to transform their lives and reconnect with purpose.
Gregg shares why he saw a gap in traditional recovery models and how his background shaping major global brands like NIKE and Mattel helped him create a radically different, high-performance approach to healing. We dive into how he blends elite mentorship, entrepreneurial strategy, and deep personal insight to help individuals navigate burnout, addiction, trauma, and major life transitions.
He also explains what it truly means to shift from addiction to passion, how traits often labeled as “flaws” like failure, ADD, or bad bosses can be fuel for success, and why The Recovery Playbook—his signature framework—is guiding people not just back to baseline, but toward a renewed vision for life and leadership.
Whether you’re a founder facing burnout, a leader seeking clarity, or simply someone looking to turn challenges into catalysts—this is a must-listen episode. Now on The Kara Goldin Show.
