Summary

I’m joined by Bachelor Nation favorite Ben Higgins, and we’re talking about what life really looks like after reality TV — from stepping into fatherhood to finding a deeper sense of purpose.

Ben opens up about the emotions of celebrating his daughter’s first Christmas, the personal growth he’s experienced since his Bachelor days, and how his spiritual journey has evolved over the years. We also dive into the expanded edition of his book, Alone in Plain Sight, where he explores loneliness, vulnerability, and faith in a way that feels honest and relatable.

We talk about why he’s shifted toward service and philanthropy, how Generous Coffee has become part of that mission, and the work he’s passionate about when it comes to supporting people experiencing homelessness. Ben also shares what he’s building next — including upcoming faith-based programming with iHeartMedia — and gives his take on the current state of the Bachelor franchise.

This conversation is heartfelt, real, and grounding… and Ben’s message is simple: you’re not alone, and there’s always a way back to connection and purpose.
