We are thrilled to announce that Tim Kaufman, motivational speaker and best selling author of Escape, will be joining us at COW FEST! **ONE DAY ONLY!**on Sat., 9/27 only!
Join Tim, a former addict, chronic pain sufferer, and 400+ pound fast-food junkie turned Ironman athlete—as he shares the raw, inspiring truth behind his transformation. In his powerful talk, Tim reveals how one small choice led to a life he never thought possible—and why the food on your plate might just be the most important decision you’ll ever make. Get ready to laugh, reflect, and walk away inspired to live like your life depends on it—because it does.
More about Tim:
Tim Kaufman is the inspirational creator of FatMan Rants, https://www.fatmanrants.com who transformed his life with an over 200-pound weight loss, emerging as a beacon of hope for those grappling with obesity, addiction, and chronic health challenges. Once morbidly obese and battling addiction and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Tim has become a fit, healthy, and active athlete, advocating a whole food, plant-based lifestyle.
Tim's latest book, 'ESCAPE – Breaking Free from a Self-Made Prison,' is more than just a memoir. It's a testament to his remarkable journey and a practical roadmap for others seeking transformation. This compelling story captivates you as you join him on his ascent from the dark depths of physical, spiritual, and emotional turmoil to the peaks of wellness, health, and vitality.
With a master’s in education and over two decades of teaching experience, Tim is not just an educator but a passionate advocate for life-altering change. His journey is a profound example of success and failure, overcoming the challenges of addiction, obesity, and near immobility. Through sheer determination, he transformed these struggles into triumphs, going from being almost immobile to competing in marathons and Ironmans, an embodiment of endurance and strength.
A seasoned and motivational public speaker, Tim has captivated audiences on hundreds of stages, his presentations universally acclaimed. His story, shared alongside his wife Heather, who together lost nearly 300 pounds, resonates with many. They've maintained this remarkable weight loss for over a decade, living a life full of health, happiness, and activity.
