In this episode of the Forging Freedom Podcast we sit down with Benjamin Knobel.
Ben has a crazy story. For 12 years he lived his life as a professional jockey where he spent all hours of the day working hard, cutting weight, and training.
But eventually he saw the negative sides of the sport and realized that he no longer wanted to identify with that lifestyle.
So he made a shift. Years later he found himself living his life in a way that didn't really feel like living.
This was when he decided to take up his childhood dream of wildlife photography.
He now works in the Pantanal, a sacred area of wildlife in Brazil, where he uses his skills as a photographer to increase awareness of the need for conservation of the planet.
If you'd like to support Ben's mission, 100% of the photo proceeds go to protection of the Pantanal and protecting the Jaguars.
