Climbing Mountains, Reaching Goals
When Ben Braeuer’s son Jay suffered a life-altering Acquired Brain Injury (ABI), his world was turned upside down. Faced with an uncertain future, Ben committed himself to guiding Jay’s recovery—an eleven-year journey that would transform not only his son's life but also his own. Along the way, Ben became a mentor, motivator, and advocate, working with ABI survivors and at-risk youth, inspiring them to push beyond their limitations.
Through powerful real-life experiences, Climbing Mountains, Reaching Goals offers a practical and deeply personal guide to healing, self-discovery, and personal achievement. Drawing from his experience in corporate leadership while also engaging actively in different remedial practices like Tai Chi and both natural, and Native American healing practices, Ben shares strategies for overcoming life’s toughest challenges—one step at a time.
This book is for anyone who has ever faced insurmountable obstacles, those who have been discouraged by life-altering news, and those looking for the courage to take the first step toward their dreams. Ben Braeuer’s inspiring journey proves that with determination, the right mindset, and unwavering belief, no mountain is too high to climb.
“… take time out to rest, reflect, and recover before you move onto the next stage of the climb towards your ultimate goal.” ~ Bernd (Ben) Braeuer
Independent Book Review:
Congratulations on Climbing Mountains, Reaching Goals. Eleven years of walking alongside your son Jay through one of life's most devastating and demanding journeys, and then channelling everything you learned into a guide that helps others find their own path forward, is an act of extraordinary love, courage, and generosity. This is the kind of book that only someone who has truly lived it could write.
Climbing Mountains, Reaching Goals is a deeply personal and genuinely transformative guide for every person who is facing a challenge that feels too big, a setback that feels too final, or a future that feels too uncertain to navigate alone. The message you are carrying for ABI survivors, at risk youth, caregivers, and anyone who needs to believe that recovery and personal achievement are still possible no matter where they are starting from is one that truly matters and deserves to be heard by every person who has ever stood at the bottom of their own mountain and wondered if they had what it takes to climb it.
