I had the chance to chat with @JulieNavickas on her podcast, Just Write Julie, about writing my memoir, Rise & Climb: Finding Purpose Through Pain, and why the story isn’t over when the book ends. If you’re a writer—or curious about the creative process and finding purpose through adversity—you can listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube here: youtu.be/sWWhbCNAKbE?si=uk5R…

My latest interview on @iamrefocused just dropped—and it already crossed 150+ plays within minutes. We went deep into turning pain into purpose, the discipline it takes to rebuild your life, and why reaching one summit is never the end of the climb. Watch here: youtu.be/yLOHKHadL-o

Your pain is not your purpose. What you build from it can be. I joined @MichaelUnbroken to talk about loss, addiction, anxiety, rock bottom—and the daily work of becoming the hero of your own story. Watch: youtu.be/v9rq5K9dKH8

Ben Barbic grew up among 10-story redwoods. A fire burned them. Thirty years later, the scars are still there - and the trees are magnificent, at the top of the canopy. They didn't hide the damage. They grew around it. (1/4)

Ben Barbic was on two or three medications for hypertension. None of it was working. So he stopped chasing the Band-Aid and started asking why. "What is it about the foods I'm eating? Taking control of the root cause changed everything." (1/7)

I sat down with @robertlufkinmd — NYT bestselling author — on Health Longevity Secrets. The question we kept circling: what if the pain isn't the thing to fix, but the fuel? Hear about the building and the climb out. Rise & Climb—the whole arc. ▶️ youtu.be/HrLNMSKAfmU
