To not be of service and live my life to the fullest after receiving so much support would be spitting in the face of anyone who ever believed in me.
Sean Wachter
Sean Wachter is a business guy, a husband, and a father of two young girls. He also happens to be a former two-sport collegiate athlete and a former pro football player, and after battling and surviving a rare form of melanoma, he is using wrestling – of all things – to raise awareness and raise funding for cancer research (all while finishing his MBA and working with several major cancer organizations).
Sean’s story challenges us all to live large, make the most of every moment, and maybe even do big, crazy sh*t to make a difference. His story is so inspiring that he’s our very first male Uplifter Ambassador! 🌟
What you’ll hear in this episode
How this video of Inky Johnson changed the course of Sean’s life
How a rare cancer saved Sean’s life and gave him his family and a powerful purpose
How Sean ended up in a wrestling ring at almost 40- winning titles and raising lots of money to fight cancer
