Ep. 64 Own It & Divorce It with Kenneth Carter III

Kenneth Carter is the perfect example of someone who can show us that YOU ARE POWERFUL on your own. He could've used his life experience and imprisonment as a way out of life. He could've easily used his past to not work on his present, but instead, he focused on the present. We talked about his military training, being addicted to alcohol, which turned into selling illegal substances, got some jail time, and finally, his new and fulfilling life. If you are stuck in the past or don't know where to go from where you're currently at, this episode is perfect for you.

Kenneth Carter is the President of Ameriton Freight & Logistics, a professional freight brokerage firm providing logistics services for businesses in the US. And Canada. Kenneth started his business venture in 2020, after being in the industry since 2001. Immediately after high school Kenneth joined the U.S. Army as a motor transport operator following his mother’s footsteps as a driver in the military. He brings values of professionalism, empathy, reliability, care and honesty into every interaction, in and out of business.

Kenneth’s purpose is to fill lives with optimism and work to engender positive self-worth. He believes every person has a purpose and wants to help them see that for themselves by providing his personal stories of hardship, failure and the reinvention of himself to guide them away from negativity and toxic environments.
