Happy #SeekTheJoy Tuesday!
On the podcast this week is Logan Sneed, an inspirational public speaker, social media influencer, ketogenic diet expert, a best-self coach with a passion for personal transformation, and a brain cancer survivor.
What if the worst thing that’s ever happened to you was actually the greatest blessing you’ve ever received?
When Logan was diagnosed with stage-4 brain cancer, he used a diagnosis that’s usually a death sentence as a springboard for the life of his dreams. No obstacle—not even cancer—would stop him from creating the life he wanted or derail his desire to reinvent himself every day and pursue the dreams he wasn’t ready to give up.
In this week’s new episode we chat about Logan’s cancer diagnosis, what it was like finding out that he had stage-4 brain cancer, what his doctors told him was possible and how Logan’s life began to change when he decided that he wasn’t going to give up. Logan shares how he’s used his diagnosis, something that’s usually a death sentence, as a springboard to create the life of his dreams, how he began to see his diagnosis differently, and how we can begin to believe in what’s possible. Plus, Logan shares the power of a positive mindset and how by thanking our obstacles we can become CEO of our lives and the best-version of ourselves, what he hopes readers will take away from his book, his biggest dream, and so much more!
I’m so excited to share this week’s inspiring conversation with Logan, and I can’t wait to hear what you think! Make sure to join the conversation on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter!
“Finding out that you’re diagnosed with cancer is like walking into a whole different world. You’re walking into so many unknowns and it’s a new you that has to be created, or it’s a you that has to be defeated. It’s something that you have to decide.”
Logan was diagnosed with a stage 4 Glioblastoma Brain Tumor on March 26th, 2016. He’s been through brain surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, and he’s grown in numerous ways mentally, physically, and emotionally. Doctors told him nothing would help, and that he might as well give up.
The doctors were wrong. The day his life changed was the day that he began the Ketogenic diet. It saved Logan’s life and helped him transform physically and internally. Since changing his lifestyle, Logan has had several MRI check in's and the doctors have seen some of the best results they have ever seen.
Logan could be living his life without any faith, and after receiving his diagnosis he could have chosen to simply give up. That was not an option for him. Logan has come to learn and know that whatever comes his way is a blessing and another opportunity to help him develop into the best version of himself.
“Thanking my obstacles shifted my perspective. Now, instead of looking at the destination, I focus on the process. The process that you’re going through is the journey, and we always have to make the most out of it in any way that we can. We have to be our own CEO, our own pilots, of that process.”
In Logan’s new book, Thank You, Cancer, he shares every thrilling victory and gutting setback from his remarkable journey to help you see the truth: you can overcome the obstacles you’re facing and become the best version of yourself. No setback, be it illness, self-doubt, failure, or depression, is more powerful than your resolve to push forward.
Logan reveals the diet, habits, routines, beliefs, and vision that have taken him from college dropout to six-figure entrepreneur. In his new book, you’re invited to join Logan and begin shaping the worst thing that’s ever happened to you into something amazing.
“I was able to transform my life. Then I started my business, and it was transforming other people’s lives. It led me to wanting to write a book to share what I’ve learned, and personally help other people. If I know I can change my life, I know I can change someone else’s life. It keeps me motivated, and allows me to give my energy to the world.”
