BACHELOR NATION'S BEN HIGGINS

Back in January I created a vision for my life, including what I wanted to achieve on my blog. On my vision board, I wrote "Interview Ben Higgins." With how in demand he is, I didn't think it would happen, but I put it out into the universe. And it happened!

Ben Higgins is my favorite Bachelor of all time. Maybe it's his wholesome spirit, maybe it's his love for Jesus, or maybe it's just his smile.



Prior to appearing on Kaitlyn Bristowe's season of The Bachelorette, Ben was living in Denver and working at a tech company. After finishing 3rd on The Bachelorette, Ben aka America's Sweetheart, was chosen to be The Bachelor. When he returned back to Denver, it was an adjustment for him. Casual activities, such as grabbing dinner or a drink with friends, were now impacted by people coming up to say hi and take photos.

Ben currently hosts the Almost Famous podcast, contributes to the blog Mahogany Workplace, and has co-founded Generous Coffee.

Generous Coffee was started by Ben and two of his friends, Drew and Riley. After a trip to Honduras where they left beaten down with the local conditions, they decided they needed to do something bigger. That's when they created this coffee company to give back to non-profits, such as Humanity and Hope United Foundation. Each year this foundation travels to Honduras to provide love and support to underserved villages.

Since appearing on The Bachelorette, The Bachelor, and Bachelor Winter Games, it is clear Ben has kept himself busy. He manages the chaos of his life by staying self-disciplined and organized. "I live by my calendar. But I also have to step back sometimes and remember to schedule off days for myself so that I can slow down and enjoy my friends and family," says Higgins.

More About Ben:
What is your favorite place you have traveled?
I've been a lot of cool places, but honestly probably Honduras. Being there just changes you.

What is your favorite thing to do in Denver?
Denver is full of so many awesome places! I love to go hiking, find a cool brewery, really anything where I can be outside.

If you could speak any 3 languages what would they be?
I like speaking English, so I'd keep that language. Probably Spanish, so I could communicate better with the people in Honduras and then maybe Italian!
