Brent Wright
Motivational Speaker
Brent Wright had dreams and aspirations growing up much like anyone else, but the consuming nature of addiction restrained him from truly living. Having defied the odds, Brent now spreads hope and the good news that recovery and a thriving life thereafter exists. His message is raw and authentic, challenging the listener to reflect and come to terms with truth.
Never afraid of a challenge, Brent has taken on physical feats ranging from an MMA cage fight to running a marathon. Spiritually, he has navigated the transition of living life burdened by darkness to walking each day in the Light. Brent can speak to the battles that take place in the mind, and the beauty of hard-fought victory.

Brent, when I first heard your testimony, it brought me to tears! You are God’s image of hope, success, and love! You have such a great impact on all that are blessed to know you! What is so crazy is you would not be who you are today without going through the struggles, you have gone through. I can’t even imagine your battle every day but know this.... HE is using YOU to do great things for others!

How do you describe Brent? He inspires me to push harder in my sobriety, in my workouts, and in my life. His life story and sobriety story are very inspiring. He helps me challenge myself all the time.

I have enjoyed following your journey on Facebook. Honestly… you continue to give me hope as a mother with a son who is incarcerated and trying to win his battle with addiction. HOPE IS A GOOD THING!
