034: Making Your Disability Be Your Greatest Gift with Sean Stephenson


Listen Later

3 feet tall, in a wheelchair, Sean's fantasy as a child was just to “blend in.”

Devastated when he was turned down for what he viewed as “normal jobs” a mentor pointed out to him that his disability was a GIFT and he was meant to share his story and lead and inspire others his world changed.

You see, Dr. Sean Stephenson was predicted not to survive at birth because of a rare bone disorder that stunted his growth and caused his bones to be extremely fragile (fracturing over 200 times by the age of 18). Despite his challenges, he took a stand for a quality of life that has inspired millions of people around the world.

Over the past 24 years, his powerful message has been heard at live events in nearly all 50 states and in 16 countries. Sean has presented at hospitals, universities, prisons, and to companies such as Nike, Whole Foods, Zappos, Walmart, and Sharp Healthcare. He’s shared the stage with U.S. Presidents, billionaire business moguls, celebrities, and his Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. Sean has appeared on everything from The Oprah Show to Jimmy Kimmel, in addition to online videos with tens of millions of views. The Biography Channel produced an hour-long feature on his life called, Three Foot Giant.

Join in today and learn how Sean Stephenson has repeatedly LEVELED UP and created EVERYTHING from Nothing!
