"When I awoke in a ditch on the side of the road in Kandahar, Afghanistan- burned and bloody- and thought my life was at it's end, I asked myself two questions:                                      
                 - What did I do for others?
                 - Did my life matter?"

                                         - B.C. Fleming

Post-Traumatic Stress, Overcoming Challenges, and Veteran Entrepreneurship 

"What happens to you in life isn’t nearly as important as what you choose to do with what happens to you in life."
- Brian Fleming

Brian Fleming has rapidly emerged as a symbol of perseverance and unconditional victory among 21st century combat-veterans. His is a face of hope and promise, survival and success. Having been blown up twice while fighting the war in Afghanistan, he overcame the odds and lived to tell about it. With wisdom and perspective beyond his years, Fleming is dedicated to seeing others succeed in the midst of their own challenges. 

Fleming served as a Team Leader in a Reconnaissance Platoon (11B- Infantry) with the U.S. Army’s 10th Mountain Division. A Purple Heart recipient, he sustained multiple life-threatening injuries from the attack of a suicide bomber who exploded three-feet away from him in Kandahar, Afghanistan on July 24th, 2006. He awoke, burned and bloody, laying face-down in a ditch on the side of the road. He sustained 2nd and 3rd degree burns to both of his hands, his face, and his neck. After enduring reconstructive surgery and fourteen months of burn treatment and rehabilitation at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, his book was published about his war experiences and entitled, "Never The Same."

Fleming charged into a full-time public speaking career inspiring, informing, educating and entertaining countless thousands in live audiences internationally with his unique and poignant message of hope beyond tragedy. A hugely charismatic and popular communicator, Fleming encourages corporations, businesses, colleges, faith-based and military/veterans organizations, and military bases, to become strong leaders in their own spheres of influence and to adopt an attitude of resilience toward the obstacles they face. Empathizing with other veterans and service members, especially those injured in combat, Fleming speaks candidly to these groups- since he speaks from personal experience- challenging them to rise above the circumstances they've faced and demand unconditional victory in their own lives. 

Appearing on Fox News, CNN, CSPAN, ESPN, The 700 Club and several others, Fleming has also shared the stage with several well-known world leaders and celebrities, as well as presidential candidates and dignitaries. He is the author of several books, including Never the Same, the story of his personal encounter with a suicide bomber.

As a young man still well under the age of 30, he continues to serve his country by sharing his incredible, real-life story of hope and faith- and showing others how to be more resilient and overcome their own challenges!

"Brian, tell your story. Americans need to hear what you did, what happened to you, and where it led you. Keep it up!" 

-Brigadier General Douglas E. Lee 
(US Army, Ret.) 

“Brian is one of the finest I've ever seen. He is a tremendous producer and a great public speaker. Do yourself a favor because he is exceptionally good!"
