James R. Nowlin, The Purposeful Millionaire
A survivor of a childhood riddled with domestic violence and alcoholism in the rural foothills of southern Virginia, James R. Nowlin is now the millennial CEO and founder of executive consulting firm, Excel Global Partners (EGP). Under James’ leadership, EGP has led successful engagements in 15 countries and in more than 20 states. His book, The Purposeful Millionaire, is a guidebook of 52 rules that teaches people about mastering the millionaire mindset and getting the most out of life–doing more, living more, and achieving more!
Throughout his adult life, James has used his daily habits and purposeful mindset to become a millionaire businessman, sought after speaker, and best-selling author. At the age of 31, he also survived near impossible odds in a drowning accident and considers this event his awakening to living a more powerful, purposeful, and epic life.
James put himself through college at the University of Virginia as a pre-med student, one year of medical school at Howard University, and three years of law school at Duke University–but ultimately, he decided that being a doctor or lawyer was not for him. "I used to think that you had to be the Huxtables to be successful," he says of his favorite TV show growing up. "But now I know that another path that is my calling."
