Ep 3 Stephen Beard: Why the Label Society Puts on Us Does Not Have to Define Who We Are

Clear Choices Podcast

I am so excited to welcome to the podcast a proactive, positive, and inspiring individual, Stephen Beard. Stephen is an active realtor in the Oakland area and in the last three years has sold over 50 real estate units valued at over $27 million dollars. He has built his career on a foundation of professionalism and dependability. While his clientele consists of all kinds of people, he does specialize in real estate services for people with disabilities.

Stephen has cerebral palsy which effects his mobility and therefore has first hand experience dealing with some of those limitations and challenges for the clients he serves. Stephen's amazing outlook on life, all of his accomplishments, as well as his commitment to giving back will leave you encouraged and inspired.

"We have a brief span of time on this planet, Rob, and we are going to get the bodies we get. We are going to get what we get, and we can choose in each and every moment. You talk about clear choices, we choose in each and every moment how we are going to respond."

In this episode, you will hear: - Stephen's most difficult times and how he has gotten through them - How his disability has brought him gratitude and has enriched his life - The way Stephen makes big decisions and choices and the legacy he hopes to leave
