As a survivor of prison, child abuse & feeling “lost in life”, Benjamin begins his story as an 8-year-old boy and takes you through a sobering journey of what it’s like to grow up inside a family torn apart by alcohol and drug abuse. Benjamin develops an over-all careless and defeated mentality towards life that eventually left him to find himself inside a West Texas maximum security prison unit. By using what he learned while in prison from reading books on spirituality and psychology and combining that with his many years as a sports nutritionist and successful fitness specialist, Benjamin David now operates an online business with his website Our Hero Within and acts as professional fitness trainer and youth mentor.
