Sean Conley Part 1

Had the chance to sit down and visit with a childhood friend of mine Sean Conley that really has a tremendously inspirational story of overcoming many obstacles to achieve his dream of playing in the NFL. Please join us in part one of Sean's amazing story as we see the early years of a professional football player.

There are many special individuals that we all meet along our way through life. When we look at their stories and our own we all have our own obstacles we have to face to get to our goals. Some of us are diverted into a different course when the road gets rough and still there are very few that are focused and driven enough to fight their way through to the other side and reach our original dream.

I think when you listen to the story of a childhood friend of mine, Sean Conley you will agree that he is a true inspiration to us all and one of the few that took the hard road to get to his desired destination. His trip may have been made harder still by a condition he harnessed in some respects to drive him to his dream job.

Sean tells more detail about his journey and how he overcame a lot before during and after his kicking career in his book titled appropriately, The POINT AFTER: A VIVID ACCOUNT OF LIFE IN THE NFL—AND AN INSPIRING STORY OF EVERYTHING THAT COMES AFTER..  You can learn more about how to get a copy of his book and listen to Sean's inspirational podcast Happy Athlete by visiting his website SeanConley.net.

A Very Special thanks to Sean Conley for sharing the photos of his playing time at Pitt, of his book cover, and of his inspiring story he shared with us. My personal thanks for rekindling some fond personal memories of growing up with some really fun and special people.
