About
Shawn Anderson is a best-selling author and national speaker on maximizing potential and "going the extra mile."
With 70,000+ books sold, Shawn garnered media attention across the U.S. in 2009 with the "Extra Mile America Tour"...a solo 4,000 mile, ocean-to-ocean bike journey encouraging people to "go the extra mile" in life. On the 90-day ride, Shawn orchestrated events in 21 cities where in pre-arranged interviews, he talked to 200+ people who had been identified as achieving something great in chasing their passions...or in turning tragedies into triumphs.
Shawn has continued to be a national leader in empowering others. In 2014, Shawn led the charge in encouraging 527 U.S. cities to declare November 1 as "Extra Mile Day"...a day acknowledging the power we each have to create positive change in our families, organizations and communities when we "go the extra mile."
