Austin Lanier

AUSTIN LANIER

As a high school student, Austin enjoyed popularity and athletic success as he played soccer internationally. But those things didn't keep him from struggling with anxiety, depression, and drug-addiction to the point where he could no longer attend school.

Thankfully, someone cared enough to help Austin realize his true value and purpose, and his life was changed. Now, Austin is sharing that same message with students around the world, encouraging them to embrace their unique IDENTITY, never give up during difficult times, and make the right decisions to turn their dreams into reality.
