THE AUTHOR

Brad Cousino was conceived out of wedlock to 15 & 16 year-old teenagers. To escape the traumatic physical abuse of growing up in a dysfunctional, alcoholic home, he worked cleaning out putrid sewers of rotting sludge to pay for 1 quarter of college. Despite overwhelming odds, Brad became a football All American and defensive M.V.P. in the Mid American Conference two years in a row. Even so, he didn't get drafted, but played with the Cincinnati Bengals, NY Giants and the then 2X Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

As a keynote speaker, life coach, mentor and published author, Brad has captivated thousands of people with his compelling true life-story as depicted in his memoir. Brad passionately believes in these 6 priorities: 1] LOVE GOD 2] LOVE YOUR FAMILY 3] LOVE OTHERS 4] ALWAYS GIVE YOUR VERY BEST 5] BE A DIFFERENCE MAKER, and 6] FINISH STRONG by FINISHING WELL.

Brad is married to Tami for 45+ years, is DAD to 4 superb adult children & PAPA to 11 superstar grand children.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMER SAY ?

Robert Allman

Attorney at Law

“I’ve never read any book that sparked my emotions, or which was as enjoyable and inspirational as “Unwanted, Unworthy, UNSHACKLED”. This book is a true masterpiece. As I read, I found myself wiping away tears more that a few times. The “Five Immutable Laws” revealed in the book are profound and insightful. I’m now UNSHACKLED from the lies and face the future with renewed faith & hope”

Dick Crum

Motivational Speaker

"Brad's story is one of pure determination; and what that character trait can do for a person – and ultimately for an entire team! He NEVER GAVE UP, no matter the odds! All his many great plays were a direct result of Brad's determination to be a 'Difference-Maker' for his team."

David Reynolds

Business Mentor

This is an amazing story about how an unwanted child overcame all sorts of obstacles in childhood and then in adulthood and had to face his own obstacles to decide how he wanted to live his life. While reading, I was asking myself would I have been as courageous? There are many life lessons here!

Pittsburgh

“I was not a natural athlete, I didn’t have the necessary size, strength, speed or skill set... but what I did possess was great DESIRE and that is THE critical trait required to be a real “difference-maker” for you, your team... and I believe it’s the most important life trait for achieving anything worthwhile in life!”
