Listen "Use Your Story to Make a Difference with: Brian Fleming"
Episode Synopsis
Adversity is one of the greatest forms of persistent
resilience one could ever ask for. It helps to build up our character and our
ability to reason when challenging times strike. One place where this is
particularly evident is in the military. According to the Pew Research Center,
one out of every ten veterans alive today was seriously injured at some point
while serving in the military, and three-quarters of those injuries occurred in
combat.
Brian Fleming is a combat-wounded war veteran who was
injured by a suicide bomber in Afghanistan. He turned his injury into a highly
profitable and influential speaking career and has been a professional speaker,
author, and resilience trainer for over 17 years. He is the Founder of
UseYourStory, where he shows other business-minded people how to make a
difference and a side income by sharing their own stories at UseYourStory.com.
"After being severely injured by a suicide bomber who
exploded 3 feet away from me in Kandahar, Afghanistan, I spent 14 months in a
hospital undergoing painful burn treatments, reconstructive surgery, and brain
injury rehabilitation. After leaving the military, I became an author &
speaker because I wanted to help other people with the lessons I'd learned that
helped me overcome my war injury. Over the past 17 years, I've spoken to over
half a million people in live audiences globally, including the US military and
several of the Fortune 500. I have written 4 books and have been featured on
almost every major news network in America on the topic of resilience and how
to stand firm when everything around you is blowing up! The greatest healing
aspect of my recovery came through sharing my story because I saw it was
helping other people and it also allowed me to be financially productive for my
family.
