Summary

This week, Jason is joined by one of Bachelor Nation’s biggest stars and fan favorites, Ben Higgins!

In 2017, Ben co-founded Generous Coffee, a company dedicated to raising money through its operation to create jobs, feed children, improve education and empower communities to eliminate poverty around the world. Outside of his socially conscious work, he maintains a connection to the one and only Bachelor Nation by co-hosting the Bachelor focused, Almost Famous podcast with Ashley I, which has accumulated over 80+ million downloads to date.

Ben gives insight to his interest in having a bigger role in the franchise, how to keep a positive outlook when not being chosen for an opportunity, his experience hosting Bachelor Live on Stage, the everchanging space of podcasting, the business model behind Generous Coffee, how Generous Coffee came to be, and why he doesn’t make a salary from Generous. Ben also reveals what gives him more joy, what keeps him grounded, the legacy he hopes to leave, his investments in restaurants, how he started investing in the restaurant industry, what other industries he invests in, and what he thinks the number one source of income will be for him in 10 years. What venture has been the most lucrative? What is his restaurant group?

Ben Higgins reveals all that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

0:41.1

all the inner workings of his discussions internally about what his future would look like, possibly

0:47.5

working in the Golden Bachelor in some capacity. His time on the Bachelor Live on stage, there

complete setbacks and failures where he's not making a penny but he finds the story to
