What does it take to go from standing in a welfare line… to becoming a Ranger, a Night Stalker, and a Green Beret—all before age 25?
Ren Ligon’s story is grit in its rawest form. He didn’t grow up with privilege. He grew up fighting—first for survival, then for a spot in the most elite military units in the world, and now for his place in Hollywood.
In this episode, Ren opens up about rejection, ego control, Special Forces selection, breaking into acting, and how growing up poor shaped his mindset.
This is for anyone doubting their path… wondering if they’re good enough… or thinking their past defines their future.
If you’re struggling to bet on yourself—press play.
