Episode 374 - Sean Wyman
From a young age Sean grew up in poverty in the suburbs of Washington DC, was a minority in a mixed inter racial relationship with racial tension, and lived with a violent drug addicted abusive stepfather. Sean was quickly forced to learn how to manage daily mental and physical abuse, bullying, and survive using the streets as his guide. After three years of continual abuse, it almost all came to an end in one night when Sean almost made a fatal decision that changed his life forever.
Forced into a life of foster care and group homes brought more new problems along with the old ones that were never resolved. Sean went from being bullied to becoming the bully. By the time he was a teenager he discovered damaging coping mechanisms to numb his pain that he became addicted to and controlled by for several years.
For over thirty years Sean’s secret past was hidden and disclosed from the world while he privately suffered from denial, regret, anger, misery, and anxiety. Then something happened in his life that became the turning point that at first glance he thought was just for him but soon realized it was meant for millions of others like him.
Today an 18 Year Law Enforcement Officer and Trainer, Army Veteran, father of 3, and husband of 14 years, Sean shares his story, the lessons learned, and most importantly teaches others as a trauma informed care speaker, trauma trainer, and bestselling author with one purpose; help others realize that to them what is impossible with the right Movement is possible.
Proverbs 4:26 says “Give careful thought to the path for your feet, and be steadfast in all your ways.” These are words that Sean lives by.
