What does it take to turn five and a half years in prison into a thriving business, a real estate portfolio, and a personal brand built to inspire? In this episode of The Rich Somers Report, Rich sits down with Frank Benton—entrepreneur, investor, and co-host of Streets to Success—to unpack his journey from incarceration to becoming a leader in business and life.

Rich and Frank discuss:

How Frank used his time in prison to rebuild his mindset, routine, and personal mission
Why most people underestimate the power of focus, structure, and delayed gratification
The step-by-step path from Craigslist gigs to launching a 22-person renovation company
How he bought his first house, flipped properties, and reinvested into multifamily real estate
Why brand building, community impact, and staying around the right people changed everything

Frank shares the highs and lows of his transformation—from waking up in his sister’s basement to becoming a full-time business owner and investor. His story is proof that where you start doesn’t determine where you’ll end up—your discipline, circle, and mindset do.
