Shaun is a former World Surfing Champion and has been described as one of the greatest and most influential surfers of all time. Shaun is also a world-renowned leadership mentor, entrepreneur, environmentalist, and bestselling author.
I am so excited to ask Shaun more about, “Bustin Down The Door,” the award-winning documentary film that Shaun wrote and produced.
Shaun talks about being an author of the best-selling books Surfers Code and The Code: The Power of “I Will."
Shaun is a past board member and ambassador of Surfrider Foundation, the world’s largest environmental group dedicated to protecting the world’s oceans, waves, and beaches, receiving the SIMA Environmentalist of the Year Award in 2002. He is a past board member of Santa Barbara Boys and Girls Club and is an ambassador for Boys to Men, a youth mentoring organization. Shaun currently lives with his wife and son in Santa Barbara, California and still finds time to chase the perfect wave.
Shaun talks about the influence of positive values on success in life and business based on his own experiences of overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges. Shaun shares how an attitude of Commitment and Positivity is the basis for his unique empowering business philosophy based on his “Surfer’s Code – 12 Simple Lessons for Riding through Life." Shaun speaks candidly about his son Mathew, his passing, and the emotional story Mathew wrote to his dad about being inside the tube.
