You’d never guess overcoming severe depression is part of his story. Because I don’t know many young men who are full of life and pep and joy like Ben Courson.

But this joy has been hard fought for. So hard, that he almost lost the fight. Life has thrown a lot of hardships his way, causing him to struggle with complex post traumatic stress disorder and severe depression.

I’m overjoyed to have Ben on the podcast today, the founder and creator of Hope Generation, and a man who has truly used his history and story of overcoming severe depression to breathe hope and life into this generation.

In this episode we talk about everything from brain chemistry, to meds, to therapy, to the literal power of prayer neurologically and how Ben used all of these things to bring him back to baseline. 

Take a moment to listen to his story, and be inspired by his journey of healing. If life has ever thrown some seemingly impossible obstacles and pain your way…this episode is for you.

It’s time for YOU to get real about how you’re doing emotionally, spiritually, mentally and physically. Are You Really OK? is available NOW!! It’s time to ask yourself the hard questions and get real about how you’re really doing.
