GUEST INFO
Sean Swarner will make you rethink what is possible.
Sean was diagnosed with terminal cancer twice as a teenager. Despite facing those devastating diagnoses—and losing functionality in one of his lungs due to radiation treatment—he has become one of the most accomplished adventure sports figures on the planet. Sean has climbed the highest peak on all seven continents, completed an Iron Man Triathlon and reached both the North and South Poles. On this podcast episode, Sean sat down with host Robert Glazer to talk about how he beat cancer and went on to become one of Earth’s greatest adventurers.
