Sean Stephenson was expected to die at birth. He has a rare bone disorder and suffered more than 200 bone fractures by age eighteen. He reached a height of only three feet, and is permanently confined to a wheelchair.

He is also a friend of Bill Clinton, Tony Robbins and Richard Branson. He is also truly the most inspirational and naturally confident man I have ever had the privilege of spending time with…

My interview with Sean was the longest interview about confidence that I have done out of all 60 interviews to date – it lasted almost 2 hours! And I said LESS than in any other interview! I simply sat back and soaked up everything Sean had to share about his journey into confidence and his tips for creating a life of confidence…

And I will have it ready to share with you very soon. I am busy editing right now. In the meantime, I wanted to tell you about this incredible man…

Sean Stephenson has inspired millions of people around the world, including Tony Robbins and President Clinton. He has had more life adventures than anyone I know.

“Sean is an amazing person with an important message.”

- President Bill Clinton.

Sean was expected to die at birth because of a rare bone disorder called Osteogenesis Imperfecta Despite and yet, despite or more probably because of all the challenges he has faced, Sean is now one of the leading authorities on the deconstruction of self–sabotage. In his early years he faced so many reasons to give up and to doubt or pity himself. And yet he never did.

In fact…

- He has worked on Capitol Hill for U.S. Congressman William O. Lipinski and in the White House alongside President Clinton.

- He has testified in front of the United States Senate on two separate occasions.

- He has developed a thriving professional speaking business.

- He has shared a speaking platform with Tony Robbins, Henry Winkler, and Mark Victor Hansen.

- He has traveled to over forty seven states and six countries.

- He filmed a fitness video called, No Excuses! with Miss Fitness Universe and her husband, a former Mr. Olympia competitor.

- He was appointed to serve on the Board of Directors for National Association for Self-Esteem.

- He is a board-certified psychotherapist, who runs a private practice and is completing his Doctorate in Clinical Hypnosis.

Oh… and he has been seen by millions on Oprah, CNN, The Discovery Health Channel, WGN, CBS News, and in The New York Times.

Exactly ten years ago, Tony Robbins inspired Sean (at the time a sickly 19 year-old boy) to dream big. REAL BIG. He said create a TEN year vision. And Sean did…

In the vision, he dreamed of writing a book and having it published. He dreamed of creating and launching his own TV show.

Well, last month Sean began filming his TV show, on the A&E network called “3 Foot Giant.” And he also just published his book, Get Off Your “But”: How to End Self-Sabotage and Stand Up for Yourself. It’s already getting rave reviews…

.

After interviewing him, I promised Sean that I’d read and review his book.

I have to tell you I LOVED it. My copy has a TON of notes scribbled over it from cover to cover.

Here’s a little video review I filmed in a bookshop in Beijing. I’m not sure why I look quite so serious!
