The Bachelor star and host of iHeart Radio’s "Almost Famous" podcast Ben Higgins joins me this week to talk about life post reality TV (including getting a legit award for being the ‘Most Googled Breakup’ in 2017!) More than the fame he acquired, Ben has been able to leverage his platform and recognition to do humanitarian work.

As president and co-founder of Generous International, a ‘for-purpose’ company known for its specialty coffee and merchandise, Ben is able to help fund partner nonprofit organizations. In this episode, Ben shares with me some of his anxieties and fears running his own business, the value of honest conversations amongst men and how he’s finding other financial resources to keep doing good in the world.
