Do you have a dream but don't know where to start? This book will move you into action! "Awe-inspiring, funny, thrilling, moving, and filled with actionable content to help you to take the first step toward your goals."

One Step at a Time, was an important inspiration to me. It helped me to break down one of my own dreams, which seemed like a daunting and unachievable goal, into smaller pieces. His practical steps helped me to focus on taking one step at a time, which got me to the finish line of a dream come true. Sebastien's life experiences and accomplishments are inspiring and have so much to teach us about living the life we want for ourselves despite whatever health challenges or obstacles that may appear to be in our way. Sebastien's book motivated a spark in me to achieve my own enormous challenge. I can't thank him enough for sharing his inspiring story with us!
