106. World Champion Wrestler Ben Kjar

On this spotlight podcast we sit down with college all-american and world champion Wrester Ben Kjar. Ben Kjar was born with Crouzons syndrome (a craniofacial anomaly), and as a young boy the doctors told him that he would live a different life.....and that's exactly what he's done!! Ben has risen above any of life's challenges and become a Victor not a victim. He shares with us how he has done so. Ben is Utah Valley University's first-ever NCAA Division 1 Wrestling All-American. This year, at 40 years old, Ben represented the USA at the World Championships in Greece and became a World Champion in Greco-Roman Wrestling and took silver in Freestyle Wrestling. Ben is an international professional speaker and has told his story to millions around the globe, in front of crowds of up to 10,000 people! Ben and his wife, LaCol, are proud parents of 3 beautiful adopted kids which are 4 yrs old and under. Ben believes the real way to become truly wealthy is to travel and experience culture and it's people. If you can connect with mankind, you will have a rich life. We hope that you enjoy!
