## About

Sean Weisbrot spent his twenties in China, becoming fluent in Mandarin, building one
of the largest English-speaking communities in the country (peaking at 700 attendees
per event), appearing on national Chinese TV, and advising city-level government
officials on cross-cultural communications. That chapter produced three books:
"Succeeding in China", "Succeeding in America", and "China Survival Guide".

He then became an early Blockchain specialist in China (2015–2016), raised over
$8 million for founders, and went on to earn $15 million across his ventures — helping
create over $100 million in value for clients and partners over a 14-year career.

Today Sean lives in Southeast Asia and runs We Live To Build, an automation studio
that designs AI-powered operating systems for growth-stage founders.
