  • #390: Sentenced to Life, Yet Brewed for Redemption: How a Coffee Bean Freed Damon West & Changed a Prison
    May 6 2025

    Have you ever felt like your story was over—only to

    discover it was just beginning? Damon West was sentenced to 65-years in a Texas maximum-security prison. But instead of letting that be the end of his story, he sparked a transformation—within himself and the prison around him—starting with a simple metaphor: a coffee bean.

    In this gripping episode, Damon shares the life-altering moment that helped him become a force for hope, leadership, and radical redemption behind bars. His journey will leave you questioning what’s really possible in the face of adversity.

    Who Is This For?

    If you've ever felt:

    • Trapped by your past
    • Stuck in a cycle of shame, addiction, or hopelessness
    • Like your life is “off track” and you’re searching for purpose

    This episode will speak directly to your heart and mind. Damon’s transformation is not just his—it’s a roadmap for yours.

    What’s It All About?

    Kevin Lowe sits down with Damon West—once a Division I quarterback and Wall Street stockbroker, turned meth addict and convicted felon. Sentenced to 65 years in prison, Damon could have become hardened by the system. Instead, one unexpected conversation about a coffee bean unlocked his purpose and changed the entire prison culture around him.

    From that moment, Damon embraced a mission: to be the change, wherever he was. Today, he’s a bestselling author, speaker, and living embodiment of redemption.

  • #389: Never Ask. Never Get a Yes! Your Fear of Rejection Is Costing You More Than You Realize
    May 1 2025

    How many dreams have you let slip away—not because you heard “no”—but because you never asked in the first place? Today’s episode is a wake-up call for anyone who's let fear of rejection rob them of the life they truly want. Kevin Lowe is here to remind you: The biggest risk isn't hearing “no”—it’s never asking at all.

    This episode is for you if:

    • You feel stuck waiting for permission or approval
    • You’re tired of letting fear call the shots
    • You've missed opportunities because you assumed the answer would be "no"
    • You’re ready to live bolder, braver, and more fully

    What’s Today All About?

    In Episode 389, Kevin shares a personal story that flips the fear of rejection on its head. After being inspired by an interview on The Ed Mylett Show, Kevin decided to reach out to a top-tier guest despite expecting no response. This guest was way out of his league. Or was he?

    This episode challenges the belief that rejection is the worst-case scenario. In truth, staying silent is far worse. Kevin shows you why asking the question—whether it's for a job, a date, a dream collaboration—is always worth it, even when it feels terrifying.

    You’ll walk away believing that courage doesn’t mean you’re not scared—it means you ask anyway.


    Some Key Takeaways:
    • Why the real danger isn’t rejection—it’s silence
    • How your fear is lying to you about what’s possible
    • Why the worst thing that can happen isn’t as bad as you think
    • How to start asking boldly, without expectation but with heart
    • Real-life proof that a single ask can change everything


    Your Next Step:

    This week, think of one thing you’ve been too afraid to ask for—and go ask. No pressure. No expectations. Just courage.
