The best day in American history, in my opinion, was September 12th, 2001. Everybody was an American. There was no African American. There was no gay American. We were all American. They sold out of flags within like the first three hours. So I think that was America's proudest moment.
Grab a seat and get ready for an inspiring conversation as Sean sits down with Richard Kaufman, also known as 'The Comeback Coach'.
