During the filming of my reality show 100 Things, I helped strangers around the world achieve their most meaningful bucket list goals, across 26 episodes 📺 Along the way, I saw firsthand the most common things that stop people from achieving their biggest dreams ❌ I also found the solutions! ✅ ▶️ Not lack of talent. ▶️ Not lack of resources. ▶️ Not even lack of motivation. The top 3 obstacles were far more human: 1. Identity 🪞 72% didn’t doubt the dream. They doubted themselves. Not “Can this happen?” but “Who am I to do this?” 2. Fear 😰 60% were more afraid of being seen trying than failing. Fear of judgment was more powerful than fear of the outcome. 3. Isolation 🧎🏽‍➡️ Without proximity to belief, doubt grows. Pursuing something meaningful alone makes everything heavier. 📈 But breakthroughs followed three consistent shifts: 1. Action created confidence 🏃🏾‍♀️‍➡️ 90% experienced mindset shifts after taking one small step. Clarity didn’t come first. Movement did. 2. Identity was built through behavior 💪 People stopped waiting to feel ready and started becoming someone who acts. Identity isn’t found. It’s formed through action. 3. Support accelerated everything 👫 When someone stood beside them, fear lost its grip. Belief is contagious. Proximity changes what feels possible. If you want to move toward something meaningful: ✅ Take one small, visible step. ✅ Surround yourself with people who are moving. ✅ Let your identity catch up to your courage. *Action. Support. Identity* That’s how dreams move. If this resonated, share it with someone who needs the reminder. Seb :)

2026 Speaker Reel 🎥 : 16 years into this wild journey of professional speaking, I smile looking back at how accidentally it all began 🎤 In 2009, I was invited to speak for free at a travel show in the UK. I couldn’t believe how much fun I had on stage and I remember going home and Googling: “Is speaking a career?” Turns out, it was. From that moment on (with dumb luck as my trusty sidekick), I started getting more invites to speak. And I loved it. I smiled every time. It felt like something I was meant to do and, to my surprise, people seemed to resonate with it too!? From 2009 to 2019, I couldn’t tell you how many talks I gave. Not because there were too many to count but because I never cared to. Back then, it wasn’t a “career.” It was just something I loved 🩷 Today, it’s different. I still feel the same joy when I step on stage but now, I own it 💪 My keynote is no longer a simple monologue with hidden messages. It’s a living, breathing experience. Audiences don’t just listen, they participate. The message has grown, too. Yes, it still speaks to Unlocking Limitless Possibility ✅ Yes, it still celebrates how Passion Inspires Passion ✨ But now, it also speaks to a truth that’s changed everything for me: The greatest things we’ll ever achieve and the biggest impact we’ll ever create aren’t just about how hard we try- they’re about how deeply we’re connected to the people beside us. We are strong alone—but better together. This isn’t just a message from stage, it’s a truth of my life. To everyone who’s booked me, listened, cheered, or just sent a kind message: Thank you. I’m better because of you. I hope I’ve offered you something good in return. Seb :) Thanks @cicospace for the amazing edit 🎬 🔥

The most emotional giveaway yet ❤️ 😭 At every keynote I deliver, we make an audience member’s dream come true live on stage 💭 The dreams are always different and always a surprise 🎁 From tickets to a game, to connections to an unlikely hero, one thing is certain- no one in the audience will ever forget the experience. While speaking for @cuterainc recently, I was fortunate enough to be able to bring a goal to life for a special lady named Helen. Honoring her sister, who sadly passed from Cancer, Helen shared that her and her sister had always dreamed of visiting Iceland to see the northern lights. It was now her goal to honor her sister by going on her behalf ✨ Thanks to Cutera and @intrepidtravel for helping to make this amazing moment happen live on stage. I can’t wait to make many more dreams come true this year with each keynote I deliver ✅ #bucketlist #keynotespeaker #northernlights #intrepidtravel #cutera

After giving two keynotes in one day, my mate Gibbo, who also happens to be one of the greatest speaking agents on planet earth, took me foiling. I then proceeded to fail about 30 times in a row, as I tried valiantly to stand up. Face first, legs everywhere, board flying, full public embarrassment fail. I also cut my back 🩸 But then….I got it. Maybe not expert level, but I got it. It always amazes me that when given a chance, how quickly the human body and mind can learn something new. And I bloody loved it. It was such a good reminder that learning anything new usually requires being willing to look a little ridiculous first. Embarrassment, failure and the fear of being judged are all just part of the price of entry. And if you can surround yourself with good people who can inspire, teach or even just cheer you on while you’re making a complete meal of it, even better. Very grateful I get to do a job that takes me to amazing places, introduces me to brilliant people, and occasionally ends with me being launched into the water while trying to look athletic. Failing at foiling. Highly recommend.

Half way through a recent keynote, I asked 15 audience members to stand as a way to celebrate their bold bucket list goals which they had just shared with me. I didn’t expect what happened next… One of them decided to charge on stage, immediately inspiring a second to follow her…. and then a third. Within 60 seconds, the stage was charged by about 150 people. It was beautiful chaos Ironically it was also a perfect reflection of what I talk about on stage; the way we show up to our own lives creates a true ripple effect that has the potential to inspire others. Well done again to the 15 prize winners….. and the other 135 people who discovered what it was like to take a chance! Seb

Thank you to Speaker and Bestselling Author Sebastian Terry for delivering an unforgettable message about unlocking possibility — together. Through his powerful Me, You, Us framework, he showed how the greatest achievements come not just from our actions, but from the depth of our connection to others. And as if his words weren’t powerful enough, he also made someone’s dream come true. #FLSapphire

I was talking to a friend last night and, after I shared how I was feeling, he smiled and said, “Thanks for sharing. I can feel your energy, and I feel better for it.” With that’s said I thought I’d share a little of how I’m feeling right now. Not as a highlight reel, but because I genuinely believe positive moments create a positive ripple effect. Last month, I was on a plane reflecting on life and I legitimately started crying. I just felt so happy. So grateful. Grateful for my life, the people in it, and the freedom that comes from following what lights me up. When I look back on this year so far, I see so many beautiful moments. Singing with 100 people at my double denim piano party with @tommcgovern27 . Time in Hawaii with @jesseisrael . Watching @veeshoney and @bennemtin become such loving parents to little Violet. Surfing badly, learning piano slowly, painting messily, deepening friendships, and falling even more in love with speaking. I’ve focused more on my health and wellness, and prioritized creativity by writing a script with @nicwolfy that I truly believe we’ll one day see on TV. And after all of it, I get to come home to an open door that often welcomes @kevinhekmat in to play piano. But the real win isn’t any of those external things. It’s how I feel internally. At the risk of sounding cliché: I finally accept and love myself. (Sorry to anyone who just vomited a little). I’ve been doing a lot of personal work and after years I’m starting to feel a profound shift in how I operate. The simplest way I can explain it is this: for most of my life, I chased. I was desperate to be chosen by friends, opportunities, and even girls. But over time, I’ve realized something beautifully simple: I’m enough. I don’t need to chase. When I’m truly myself, and committed to what I care most about, life opens up in the most magical way. I wasn’t sure whether to post this but if it makes you smile, or nudges you a little closer to your most authentic self, then maybe that’s reason enough. Let me know. Because at the end of the day, we’re in this together. Life is good. Seb :)

At Catalyst 2026, we had the honor of hearing from Sebastian Terry, the founder of the 100things Philanthropic Movement. Seb shared how he accomplished several of his goals rom Crashing A Red Carpet Event (Goal #98) and Delivering a Baby (#23), and Helping a Stranger (#26) by aiding a quadriplegic man to complete a half marathon by pushing him in his wheelchair. He also challenged PTK members to think about their goals. To help them get started, Seb helped some of our members by donating $1,000 to Kendall Stroud and her chapter from Ivy Tech Community College in Indiana who said her goal was to stock her campus food pantry. He also helped 15 students who's main goal is to transfer to a four-year college connect with our transfer experts for an exclusive transfer webinar opportunity. Now, let me ask you. What's your goal?

Deep connection doesn’t always come through serious conversation. Often, it comes through play. The secret is creating an environment where people feel safe enough to be themselves. Some call that psychological safety. I called it a Double Denim Piano Party 👖 🎹 I’d wanted to host piano karaoke for years, convinced I wasn’t the only person who loved singing loudly with no real talent. So I gave it a disguise and put the theory to the test. Turns out, when you get the right people in the right room, magic happens. Joy shows up. And so does real connection ✨ A HUGE thanks to: @tommcgovern for sharing your gift 🎹 @henryleedeal with the incredible 🍹 @lifeofamandariley for the harmonica cameo 🎼 @deigodelevegaf for the @zomozmezcal 🥃 @jessicastaats for the charcuterie 🧀 And EVERYONE who came together to create magic ✨ People are good. #doubledenim

Such a treat to be the first keynote speaker that Kairoi had ever invited to their annual leadership conference. Not only did we create some magic on stage; but they even made this lovely little video 🎥 There were tears, laughs and we even made 3 bucket list goals come true live on stage: 1- Jaime is going skydiving 🪂 2- Cody is going Scuba Diving 🤿 3- Vanessa sang on stage in front of everyone 🎤 Thanks for the trust and here’s to moving boldly towards our goals, together ❤️ Seb :)

I’ve been speaking for 16 years now, and I honestly feel like I have the best job in the world. I think that’s what happens when you find something you truly love, no matter what it is. Funnily enough, for the first decade, I never thought of myself as a “speaker.” Speaking was simply something kind people invited me to do, quite often. It wasn’t an identity. It was an opportunity to have fun. But over the past five or six years, thanks to incredible friends in this industry who inspire me, I’ve leaned fully into it. And in doing so, I’ve realized how deeply this work has shaped not just my career, but me as a person. I’ve never wanted to be two different people. The guy on stage and the guy at dinner. The guy in front of a crowd and the guy at home alone. Over time, I think I’ve just come to appreciate how important it is to feel like you’re the same person in every room you walk into. Reading this testimonial this morning made me pause for a moment. Mostly, I just felt grateful. Thanks Lori for the kind words.

“Hey brother, hope all is well! I have an opportunity for you to be on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for a segment that I’m producing with my wife and Boz St John called ‘Freedom Fiesta’. A bunch of the women on the show are single and they’re looking for eligible bachelors to star in the episode. They’re shooting next Wednesday. Let me know if you’re interested.” Sometimes in life you just have to say YES. A big thanks to my good mate @chrisdetert who sent me this text late last year 📱 Being on a TV show 📺 (#33) and Speed Dating 💕 (#21) were both original goals on my list 📝 and to check them off again (this time together!) was an absolute delight ✅ I hope this makes you laugh as much as it makes me cringe 🤣 😬 Thanks to @lisalaffertyevents @badassboz and all of the @realhousewivesofbeverlyhills for this super fun experience. Grateful to survive! 🤣 #housewivesofbeverlyhills #bucketlist #speeddating
