About this episode

#871: Join us as we sit down with Damon West – bestselling author, college professor, & one of America’s most sought-after motivational speakers, whose powerful story of transformation & resilience inspires audiences around the world. As a former college quarterback turned crime boss, Damon now uses his M.S. in Criminal Justice & his personal experience to motivate millions on leadership & the incredible power of positively changing the environment around you. In this episode, Damon gets real about how a life sentence in the Texas prison system became the catalyst for change – from embracing life like a coffee bean & holding onto hope, to teaching leadership & literacy, launching a foundation for children of incarcerated parents, & most importantly, creating positive change from within. Damon’s story is one of hope, redemption, grit & the resilience of the Human Spirit.
