(PART 1) In Episode 5 of the SUPERHUMAN Podcast, we sit down with Kendell Myers — also known as Mr. OVERCOMER — for one of the most powerful and raw conversations yet.
Kendell’s journey is extraordinary. He went from being unable to read until age 13, to surviving a drive-by shooting, to losing his father to cancer — and somehow, through faith and relentless self-work, he transformed all that pain into purpose.
Now a global empowerment speaker, certified purpose coach, and author, Kendell is on a mission to impact 1 billion lives. Mentored by Les Brown and a member of the Atlanta Hawks Flight Crew, his story is about more than motivation — it’s about spiritual resilience, real leadership, and becoming undeniable.
We explore:
- How to discover your purpose beyond surface goals
- The mindset blocks keeping people stuck today
- God, spirituality, and why faith changes everything
- Using trauma and testimony to inspire others
- Building your voice, brand, and impact — with or without social media
- The power of AI and storytelling in this new era of leadership
This episode is for anyone who’s been knocked down, confused, or called to something deeper — but doesn’t yet know how to rise.
