A Purple Heart recipient and founder of Over the Top Speaking Programs, his greatest passion is teaching others how to prosper through adversity and live victorious lives. He and his wife Jamie, have one son and live in Fort Worth, TX.

Brian Served in the Military for the United States Army. Brian has been an inspiration to many people. His topic "Prosperity Through Adversity" was a moving experience. Shortly after enlisting in the Army, Brian was sent overseas for a tour of duty in South Korea for one year. After returning to the United States, he was assigned to the 10th Mountain Division, 4th Brigade, at Fort Polk, Louisiana. He quickly moved through the ranks to Sergeant just a week before deployment to Afghanistan.

 

Brian C. Fleming "Never the Same".

 

During his stay in Afghanistan in 2006, Brian suffered through an explosion by a Suicide Bomber. He shared his experience first hand. It was certainly a difficult time for Brian. During his late recovery he suddenly realized all of this happened for a reason and God intended for him to be an inspiration to others through Motivational Speaking Programs. It has also served to be a way of healing for him through this horrific ordeal.

Brian has written several books including "Never the Same". You can get more information about Brian on his web site at www.briancfleming.com

The It is important for all of us to thank the Men and Women serving in the Military and who have served in the Military. Freedom Has a Price. Every chance you get, thank our Men and Women in uniform for their service.
 

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or else one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States, where men were free."
