Ben grew up in rural Tennessee in a large, loving family, but he often felt isolated outside his home. School was difficult—bullying and feeling like he didn’t belong left deep marks. As a teenager he spiraled, feeling aimless and battling mental health issues. Things began to change when he discovered three anchors: motorcycles, the gym, and faith. Lifting weights with his older brother Asa taught him that effort breeds progress; it gave him a concrete way to see himself grow. Riding his motorcycle offered freedom and clarity in the wind and motion. Conversations with his Christian family and prayer deepened his faith and provided purpose. Those three passions gave him a way to find beauty and peace. Now, at 20, Ben is in Tennessee chasing bodybuilding and inspiring over 14,000 followers while becoming the steady, faith-driven man he always needed.
