Summary

With a gun in his mouth and a bottle of booze to his sign Sean Whalen finally had hit rock bottom.

You see Sean Whalen was very successful at a young age. Infact, he  was a self made multimillionaire in his early 20's . BUT he knew very little about business without having a father, mentor or coach around.

So he made A LOT of mistakes.

Mistakes that lead him to lose $12,500,000, bankruptcy and the loss of his marriage and family.

Like many juggling a lot, Sean was always connected to the office, Disconnected at home, taking  calls 24/7and even arguing with his wife with the belief that his “hard work ethic” was GOOD for them.  

When everything started to crumble for him? He says he made every bad decision you could make with  business and relationship. Trying to keep CONTROL, he worked HARDER and HARDER trying and save everything.

The saddest part he was missing? He felt like he was NEVER working “hard enough”

Eventually things got crazy out of control. He was forced into dropping EVERYTHING and surrendering. 

In his darkest moment, a gun in his mouth and an empty bottle of alcohol to his side, he TRULY surrendered and asked for help.

TODAY Sean is a Massively sought after Motivational speaker, founder of multiple companies including apparel and technology, but his role as founder and CEO of Lions Not Sheep is closest to his heart. He is also the founder of his newest “market disruption” the app : MEETRZ
