It took five years, hundreds of hours on youtube, worry, fear, but finally I hit record and uploaded my first video. Thanks to you. Thank you

Family who makes you second guess your dreams in a negative way are even worse than friends who want to tear you down. I love hearing the personal perspective on having an alternative type of business!

[sanjoaquinvalleytransparency]

I’ve taken your advice since day 1 and it’s worked. Never give up folks.

[MeganGraham]

Hi Sean, I started listening to you in December of 2020 when I had 220 subs and learned how to grow my channel so much faster because of you. I'm at 8700 now because of you and your awesome team, and I just invested in your video program yesterday. I am so excited to start. Thank you for putting together such outstanding products to help us! Megan Graham

[RebellDawn]

Thank you Sean, I have 48 subscribers since I started my YouTube channel in 2020. I hope to be financially secure, I’m 52 and medically retired.

I just found your channel today and it has came at the perfect time. I appreciate your passion for helping people who are ready to make a change.

[pauloduarte]

Hey brother, am 40 years old and for the longest time i wanted to start my YouTube channel.
My goal is to record and share my crazy experiences in the great outdoors when am trying to learn as much as possible about canoeing Turing, bushcraft and landscape photography.
Thank you for all this information and inspiration

[sinfulcravings]

I finally punched fear in the face and started my channel (Sinful Cravings) all because of you Sean…. Please keep inspiring people…. You guys are changing and saving lives.

[homebuyersecret]

I love your “Bill the Skeptic” impressions. You can tell Sean from the 1st video entertaining Sean wins.

I love how you have to explain how to go to the library and look up where the book your looking for is. Haha! I know this but I guess a ton of people no longer experience this. YouTube as a "content library" for sure. I am always going on YouTube and putting my most recent hyperfocus in the search.

[MarkSunshine]

Hey man -- I am an artist and life had me doing other things than Youtube -- have had a channel since almost the beginning, b4 Google bought them out. With the pandemic and other IRL influences, I have now started to pay attention and refine my efforts. So, I found your channel and others, doing the "homework" I have set for my self.

[AddColorLife]

Every time I watch you, a new idea pops into my mind for a video. It’s centered around helping people learn more about what you are doing because they are watching to learn. I’ve got a few ideas and I’m committed to uploading weekly. Plus making the changes you suggest.

[SharingTheBliss]

Wow...Wow...Wow! Sean! You just shifted my life! Putting together my one video per week plan! My work is too important to keep my channel sleeping for so long! May you continued to receive 100 fold in all of your giving! Thank you!

[ethanmcalpin]

Sean, you're such a compelling & captivating speaker. A true gift.

[ffdlife]

Thanks to you, I launched my Youtube channel. I’ll never thank you enough.

[MeemaMcLivingHealthy]

Was on Your private FB Page this morning especially for this first day of info. Was not disappointed. Great job Sean. You think the same way that I do. I didn’t start my YouTube channel for fame, glory, or wealth. I saw a large group of people struggling to lose weight and had such a heart for them, because I, too, had once walked in their shoes. I believe to remain on YouTube for long term we must have a reason that goes way beyond money.

[allergicemma]

I want to spread awareness about living with food allergies. I’m 6 years old and I have had 5 anaphylactic reactions!

[alenanawrocki]

Unreal! 50 mins into the video is incredible "WHY"!!! Makes you humble. I so respect you for wanting to wear "pants " in the family! Incredible motivation! Great info, but the message is priceless!

[mattaaron]

Dropped my 3rd video last night. I found that I love creating from writing to filming to editing. I'm just going to trust the process and enjoy the ride.

Starting all over on youtube and binge watching your videos.
