Rising Above: A Green Beret's Story of Childhood Trauma and Ultimate Healing

Rising Above: A Green Beret's Story of Childhood Trauma and Ultimate Healing

A simple car accident changed the path of 6-year-old Sean Rogers’ life forever. His single mother checked into the hospital as a vibrant young woman and checked out as a full-blown opioid addict. From that day forward, Sean’s life became a silent nightmare of abuse, neglect, chronic hunger, and slow, helpless withdrawal from everything and everyone he loved.

In Rising Above, Green Beret Sean Rogers chronicles the toughest battle of his life—the long, painful fight to confront his darkest fears and reclaim his life. After struggling as a young man to accept the raw trauma of his past, he learned eventually to understand and embrace it, ultimately using it to become an elite Special Forces operator.

Through this profoundly honest and inspiring memoir, Rogers explores what it means to make the pain of your past work for you, showing you how to harness the truth of your own reality and take control of your destiny.

Coming February 23rd to Amazon!

Your voice is iconic, “we all have pasts full of trauma, the problem is we look at that trauma like it’s something to be ashamed of.” This is unbelievably powerful.

I really have a desire to read your book now, Buck. Already, I’m hearing things that resound with me. Also, thank you for being a man of faith. I think there is a lot to be said about someone like yourself who knows how to give everything physically and mentally in service to his country as being his best self in Special Forces, and also someone who is authentic in their faith and brings alive that SF lifestyle spiritually giving God his all. I search for people like you. Thank you for following the calling God has placed on your life.

Honestly, I had never considered special forces until watching your channel. I definitely plan on joining the military in some fashion, and try to train like I want special forces. I’m almost done with my degree, so I’m gonna finish that first.
