In this powerful episode of the Conversations With Corliss Podcast, I sit down with Ben Nemtin, New York Times bestselling author, co-creator of The Buried Life, one of the stars of the hit MTV series, and keynote speaker at LEAD Conference Canada.
Ben shares the deeply personal story behind the success so few people know.
After years of chasing achievement and performing under constant pressure, anxiety and depression began to take over his life. He found himself withdrawing from the people around him, losing hope, and wondering how he would ever find his way back.
But instead of giving up, Ben made one small decision at a time.
He intentionally surrounded himself with people who inspired him, challenged him, and believed something bigger was possible. Along the way, he rediscovered a dreams he had buried for years and a list of things he wanted to do before he died.
That decision became the beginning of a movement that inspired millions around the world.
