Ep 448 Creating the Vision for Your Life with Corey Kupfer

Richer Soul

Creating the Vision for Your Life

What does it take to break free from a scarcity mindset and rise to the top as a master negotiator and dealmaker? On this compelling episode of Richer Soul, Corey Kupfer shares his raw journey from paycheck-to-paycheck roots to building a powerhouse law firm and consultancy focused on high-stakes negotiation and deal-making.

If you've ever doubted whether your background could limit your future success, this is the episode that will blow your mind—and redefine what’s possible.

Key Takeaways:

1. Your Money Mindset Can Be Reprogrammed. Corey’s early life was shaped by scarcity—“money’s hard to come by,” “budget everything”—but he did the inner work to shift to a mindset of abundance and strategic wealth creation.
2. The Courage to Go Solo. At 31, with zero clients and no financial safety net, Corey left a secure legal job and launched his own firm. He used credit cards to pay rent and still found the resilience to build from scratch.
3. Negotiation Is a Skill Anyone Can Master. Corey breaks down the three pillars of authentic negotiating: Clarity, Detachment, and Equilibrium—tools anyone can use to stop overthinking and start winning in both business and life.
4. True Success Requires Internal and External Alignment. Wealth isn’t just about money—it’s about being purpose-aligned, values-driven, and empowered to create lasting impact through your work and your deals.

Money Learning: From Scarcity to Strategy

Corey’s relationship with money started in a fear-driven, budget-focused household. The breakthrough came when he realized that despite early professional success, his subconscious beliefs were holding him back from building real wealth. He invested deeply in personal development, challenged inherited financial scripts, and reshaped his thinking to embrace abundance, philanthropy, and purpose-driven prosperity.

Lesson for Listeners: No matter your past, you can rewrite your money story—and your results will follow.
