Ben Harrow: Progression is the definition of success

I met Captain Ben Harrow at a charity event where he and his family were supporting his wife Gina. After he introduced her and the event concluded, I rushed up to him to thank him for his service and chat for a moment. After a brief conversation we both invited each other to be a guest on our separate podcasts. Getting to know Ben and his journey was incredibly inspiring. From high school and collegiate athlete which led to West Point, Ben always put forth the effort and made it a point to be constantly working on and being the best version of himself. After multiple deployments over seas, there was a tragic moment where he stepped on and IED and lost both his legs, several fingers and scarred his forearm.

When presented with very limiting beliefs by doctors and therapists, Ben made it a point to realize that if anything was going to get better, it was up to him to make it happen. The work was arduous and challenging but Ben continued in the face of adversity realizing progress is better than nothing. In this episode, we dive into his unshakeable work ethic and belief in anything is possible. 

He is a husband, father and leader of the community with his work with the Yellow Ribbon Fund, his newly launched Team Harrow Podcast and president of Pam Jets. While he is super active and busy most days one of his favorite things is watching old re-runs of the Golden Girls with his wife Gina when they have time. If you are struggling or have questions for one of the most resilient men that I have ever met please don't hesitate to to reach out to Ben on Instagram @teamharrow or @bharrow37. We hope you enjoy the show!
