I love everything about Sean's podcast. His writing and speaking are heart-felt. I can count on laughs or tears. The music included with the spoken words is the medicine I need to begin my day. Sean never disappoints. My sister and I are on a mission to read/listen to all of his books. I suspect Sean does not realize how gifted he is as a writer but his readers do. Your readers/listeners love you.

Sean's podcast is my daily dose of listens to start my day

Can't get enough! Saw you in Opelika, Alabama on 1/19/23, flew to Baltimore the next day to pickup an ambulance and listened to your podcasts all the way back to Alabama!

Great!!
