About Me

Brent J. Freeman is a visionary entrepreneur, speaker, and author who learned firsthand—after years of chasing society’s definition of “success”—that accomplishment means nothing without inner peace. For two decades, he built multimillion-dollar companies, global partnerships, and earned recognition for his achievements. Yet behind the trophies and milestones, he found himself burned out, disconnected, and wondering how a life that looked so full could feel so empty.

That unraveling became the beginning of his awakening. Through years of studying neuroscience, mindfulness, and human transformation, Brent learned to rewire the subconscious patterns that had been steering his life—and uncovered a truth that reshaped it: joy, not hustle, is the catalyst for lasting fulfillment.

Knighted by the former royal family of Italy, Casa di Savoia, for his philanthropic work supporting children around the world, Brent has devoted his life to using business, leadership, and storytelling as paths for healing and expanding human potential. His foundation funds education, micro-loans, and sustainability projects that help communities create brighter futures.

His work on The Alchemy of Joy has been featured in GQ, Life & Style, Mens’s Health, & USA Today, where he is recognized for bringing a fresh, science-backed, deeply relatable approach to modern well-being. Through The Alchemy of Joy, Brent shares the simple practices, vulnerable stories, and time-tested truths to help people rebuild their lives from the inside out—offering readers a practical and heartfelt roadmap to presence, clarity, and authentic happiness.

He splits his time between Lake Tahoe and Italy, where mornings begin with meditation, espresso, and a seventy-pound “lap dog” named Tahoe—daily reminders that joy lives in the present moment, not in the next accomplishment.
