Sean of the South is here!!!!!!!!!! This is one of my very favorite conversations. Sean's writing it SO touching and memorable. Sean recorded this one OUTSIDE with some beautiful scenery behind him so enjoy the sound of the birds and the wind :).
Join us as Sean opens up about his tumultuous past, including the long-lasting impact of his father's tragic death by suicide and the complexity it added to his formative years. Despite dropping out of school in the seventh grade and facing rejection from a prestigious writing program, Sean's determination led him to create the Sean of the South blog, a turning point in his life and career. Writing became his sanctuary, allowing him to process his experiences and connect with others.
During the pandemic, a significant health scare pushed Sean and his wife Jamie to live differently, biking across four states on a tricycle and rediscovering the beauty of simplicity and the importance of disconnecting from technology. Reminiscing about a time when bicycles filled neighborhoods, Sean expresses a longing for the simplicity and connection of his youth, wishing today’s children could experience the same. Emphasizing the importance of truly living rather than merely existing, Sean speaks about the concept of 'Trail Magic' and the belief that everything happens for a reason. In a touching moment, Sean reflects on how the burdens of the past become treasured in later life, he even whistles for us, a poignant reminder of finding joy in simple acts! This episode is a testament to the power of storytelling and the profound impact of embracing one's past to shape a better future.
