In Leayman’s Terms: How Seeing Your Struggles From A New Perspective Can Help You Manifest A Life You Dream Of

Shawn Michael Leayman is proof that success is not about the resources, but about the drive – about the decision to move forward in spite of challenges and critics. Shawn is an acclaimed motivational speaker, mentor and entrepreneur, but most know him as an ordinary man with an extraordinary message about embracing your truest self in order to transform your life. From the outside looking in, Shawn’s life was the same as any kid from suburban middle America, a high school wrestler with substandard grades but a promising future. His societal facade shadowed the boy who grew up inside a broken home, lost and looking for answers, exposed to abuse and neglect; a boy who, at the bottom of his class, felt like he would never amount to anything. It was through perseverance, hard work, dedication and challenging the status quo that Shawn, through the ups and downs, came out the other side refined. He knows firsthand what it means to rebuild; to rise from the ashes and find the lessons in the chaos. “99% of the time, the only thing that is stopping you from doing what you want in life is between your ears,” says Leayman. “I want to inspire people to say, ‘I can do this. I can control my life.’”Shawn has made it his mission to empower others; to talk about the things that society says we shouldn’t; to help people accept that the challenges we are presented with are meant to help us grow, and that the answers we seek already exist inside ourselves.
