Real leadership starts with connection—and the Bennetts are living proof.

Ty Bennett and his son Tanner joined me on the Beliefcast and delivered a masterclass on influence, humility, and leading with heart. They shared vulnerable insights, challenged outdated leadership models, and showed what it truly means to serve others.

Drew Bennett, who was originally scheduled to join us, couldn’t make it—but his impact and leadership are still deeply felt and recognized. The strength of this family’s message comes from the unity and authenticity they live every day.

At the end of our conversation, Ty and Tanner left a message that hit home:

🎧 Tune in to be inspired and to level up your leadership.

Some people are told they’ll live a different life—and they let that define them. Others take that challenge and turn it into greatness. Ben is the definition of a fighter, a champion, and a man who refuses to be a victim.

Meet Ben Kjar: born with Crouzon syndrome, a rare craniofacial condition, he transformed challenges into victories. As Utah Valley University's first NCAA Division I Wrestling All-American, Ben's journey exemplifies resilience. At 40, he clinched the World Championship in Greco-Roman Wrestling in Greece, representing the USA. Beyond the mat, Ben inspires globally as a professional speaker, sharing his story with millions.

His upcoming documentary, "STANDOUT: The Ben Kjar Story," premiered in Hollywood in February 2025. Ben and his wife, LaCol, are proud parents of three beautiful adopted children, all under five. He believes true wealth comes from embracing diverse cultures and connecting deeply with people.
