Not sure where to even start other than the day I found Olet’s tiktok videos.. There was something about Olet’s posts that just kept me wanting to watch more! I have been successful in life and so very grateful for all that God has blessed me with throughout my life. However, I have got to a point in my life that I am in a day to day mindset that doesn’t have much drive to continue to push forward to be better! After watching Olet and listening to his journey and how he is making so much out of his life after overcoming so much is an eye opener! Recently Olet was on a new journey across the Ozark’s. I was so excited to meet him and really get some face to face inspiration, it made it all so real! It’s time! It’s time to make this happen! I sat down and made a vision board. It might not be the best however, it is small steps to move closer to the larger goals! Olet didn’t have to spend his time with me that night at the magic show or the ice cream place, however I appreciate and respect him more than he will ever know! He is so down to earth and was what I needed to put my feet back on the ground and move forward! I haven’t felt very excited about life in a while.I know I have a road ahead but I am going to fall in love with the process and I Will Rise! Thank you again Olet!!!

Where do I start? I started watching Olet on tik tok. I saw this young man helping another tik toker with their home. She was a really popular tik toker. You may know her tow truck jess. Everyone looked just like worker bees. But not Olet. He was dressed for success and full of energy. I am like this dude is different. Then he just started popping up in my fyp. His positiveness and one of his phrases ``life is hard but that's ok," seemed simple right? Then I begin to go to his page and start going through all his videos. And what hit me like a ton of bricks was this saying, “ I will rise and you will too” And hearing him saying” one person helping another person, makes both people stronger”. I was like, facts. Now at this time no one really knows I was super depressed. All i could do was get up to work and sleep. Couldn’t accomplish more then that. I ordered food to my house and amazon virtual a recluse so to speak. I am a very spiritual person and even at that time found it hard to pray and get myself going.
I continue to watch Olet talk about his story. I was even more amazed that everything he accomplished was like in maybe three years of being out of prison. And what really got me to believe in his mantra of I Will Rise was when he said, faith without works is dead. He was so correct. I began to take negative thoughts and turn them positive by saying life is hard but it's ok I watched this man's story beat odds and felt his faith was strong. The more he talked the more I began to pray again. I could feel that this young man was being used to be a blessing to me and to others. He always says” i will rise and you will too and i believe that” I truly believe that I Will Rise will continue to spread the message not just on website and Facebook, but to classes across America. And all the people that have been touched by IWR will continue to spread the word and touch others.

I would like to share with you how awesome I think that your philosophy has made me so happy. I am have a husband whom struggles greatly with addictions and because of those he had landed himself in and out of jail for the majority of our relationship and marriage. I haven’t been to jail nor do I understand a life lived within those walls. Through your Facebook and TikTok platforms I have been following you for about a year but I cry when I hear Your story and see your motivation circling this country. You have inspired me so much so that I have decided that ending our marriage is the best for me and our 2 minor children. We also both have an adult son from precious relationships and they have suffered the most.
They have walked through the physical verbal and mental abuse of their fathers addiction and my long suffering heart, but have both come out on the other side becoming great guys but also survivors. With all that said I want you to know that I will rise and you will too! It I had been a long time coming and I have lost who I knew me to be under the abuse and addiction repercussions. I suffer with my mental health which has turned into physical as well but I will not let this take me out or keep me from rising to the potential set before me. When I get back on me feet and Back to being financially able I would like to purchase some merch. I believe in your movement whole heartedly and I pray that your movement makes moves greatly on others on auch bigger way. You are awesome and I support you and vote OLet for president! Continue to be blessed and a blessing to other.

This is Dawn otherwise known as murrsmuffers on the sight . I came across Olet when he went to to tow truck jesses ! I was born deaf so i have to read lips my whole lip i even do volunteer work to the third graders .i do think I’m pretty good at it as long as i can see u so i started watching Olet what an inspiration he was to me one day i decided to tell her that I was deaf and wouldn’t you know he started to sign with me a little I was like wow I couldn’t believe it. He didn’t really know a lot, but he tried and then he started to get the group to help me he would say hey guys tell Don this and hey guys tell Dawn that, and then the group started interacting with me. You just don’t know what that meant to me and then the group became friends with me.
It really meant a lot to me know of my understand how long you feel when you’re deaf and have no friends that are deaf so for that, I thank u olet then recently, they became a study that I might get to have hearing and I told her that I was scared. It was such a scary time. He told me to face my fears and take a chance and I did, and guess what I can hear I will never forget olet and the times that he spent with me and got me through the hard times people give him a hard time all the time about his I will rise and he often says he’s not. I will rise to me he is I will rise because without him there is no I will rise. I’m also battling kidney cancer and I talk to him about that too and I told him I’m scared and he told me be strong and we’ll get through it and we will because I have the group his friendship it’s not just a group it’s not just I will rise. It’s a community it’s a family and I love all of you. I hope this helps somebody in someway just know that you can get through anything if you try God knows I’ve tried. I face my fears and I did it. I’m 65 years old. God bless you all.
Love, Dawn.

I came into this group about a month ago. I have learned a lot from others and have been a part of the classes, which have helped me out. I didn't know where to go or how to go about getting free classes, but Olet gave me somewhere to get the help I needed for myself. I have been through mental and physical abuse. I have walked through a lot of other things in my life, losing my first born 15 years ago, losing my 2nd daughter 5 months ago and the most recent losing my 3rd daughter. I have been struggling with addictions in my life as well as my mental health for 10 years. I have gone through mental health rehab while also staying at a mental hospital. This group has had a big impact on my life. I have learned many things from the group and in the classes. The Trauma class has helped me big time... trying to get back on my feet which is not easy to do.
My sister put me out of the house and I had to lean on my family to help me. I am thankful for this group so much. It has helped me through many struggles in my life, sometimes i want to give up on life and just say i am done. But what makes me keep going is waking up every morning and being thankful for God to let me see another chance at life... Olet and I Will Rise has made a huge impact in my life. I am thankful for the group and the classes. If it was not for them I would not be able to say I am thankful... This group has taught me to gain confidence about myself that life is not easy but you can't give up. You have to remain strong and fight everyday. I am very grateful for this group... remember one thing, never give up on life, and never give up on trying..
Love Ash...

Just joined the group but have been following O Let for a couple years now. I support his movement 110%. Ever since I got out of prison in 2018 I have dedicated myself to bettering my life and not letting my past define who I am today. I fight everyday for myself and for my son, because I know if I don’t, nobody else is going to do it for me!
Since coming home in 2018 I have gotten my license back, paid off my restitution, bought a car, walked off parole and most importantly I have become a father and role model to my son, whom is in the pictures below. I have also gotten back into the line of work in which I love and am back to being a full time electrician.
To say the least I have been rising since I came home, I mean when you are at rock bottom you have nowhere else to go but up. That’s not the hard part. The hard part is being consistent and continuing to grow. Staying HUNGRY. Keeping fresh in my mind that I could very easily be right back to square 1 if I lose focus and fall off my square. Which brings me to the I will rise movement. Seeing O Lets videos and lives everyday have been a huge help for me in my daily life, it’s always good to tap in with other positive energy and just vibe and get motivated. The people who support the movement are just as great. The chat is always positive and motivating and everyone always seems to be there for each other. So I am glad to have found this group and I am hungry to pick some brains and grow in every aspect possible in my life. I am also willing to be here for ANYONE here who may need anything that I can help with. Today I’m able to help others because there were people who helped me when I couldn’t help myself!
