At 19 years old, Coss Marte was making millions of dollars a year running one of New York City's largest drug operations.
A few years later, he was facing life in prison.
Most people would assume that was the end of the story. It wasn't.
In this episode, I sit down with Coss Marte, a former drug kingpin who transformed his life after incarceration and went on to build ConBody, a fitness company that has helped thousands of people transform their lives.
We talk about crime, poverty, identity, prison, second chances, personal responsibility, shame, self-worth, and what it really takes to reinvent yourself.
This isn't just a conversation about prison or redemption. It's about what happens when you stop running from your past and start taking ownership of your future.
Coss Marte is the founder of ConBody, entrepreneur, author, and former drug kingpin who transformed his life after incarceration and now helps others do the same.
