On April 8 2013, Steve Spear embarked on a journey that less than .001% of the population has ever attempted…
In 2007, his heart was gripped by the fact that the world’s #1 cause of death, is not cancer, it’s not heart disease, war or smoking…
In fact, this one single thing kills more than 4,000 people per day. That’s a person every 22 seconds…
It’s something you and I likely take for granted and have thought about as much as we think about how much oxygen is available.
It’s lack of clean water. And it is completely preventable.
He knew to make a dent in the problem he had to create a movement. And to make a movement, you need a story.
So in 2013, Steve and his wife Frances, did just that and over the course of 5 months, he escaped death by wild dogs, burned through 13 pairs of shoes, ate 6,000 calories a day and ran over a marathon every single day, 5 days a week, all in the name of raising money for clean drinking water in the most impoverished parts of our world.
The total distance? 3,081 miles. From Santa Monica pier in California to Battery park, New York.
So why would someone quit their stable job, sell their business, pack up their family and run across the United States?
The answer? To create awareness and a platform he could use to raise money for the cause. In fact during those 5 months, he was on stage almost every weekend for a speaking engagement doing just that.
Now today’s guest, as you may have noticed shares my last name and is actually my father. It was an absolute pleasure to interview my dad as he tells his story of growing up, becoming a pastor and his secrets of having a marriage that lasts a life time.
If you can create a story that will move a person to action, you can use it to create a business, build a brand, make millions or change the world. Today’s conversation will show you how to do just that.
So with that, please help me welcome, my father, hero and daddy, Steve Spear.
