Sometimes life’s waves knock you down; other times, life might seem to sweep you along powerless. But the choice is always yours to swim back up to the light. Legendary world champion surfer Shaun Tomson and international best-selling poet-philosopher Noah benShea join forces to offer you insight on a path of purpose, hope, and faith. This timely guidebook alternates between Tomson’s inspiring experiential essays and benShea’s spiritual commentary that lift the soul.

After losing his son, Tomson walked the bitter road of loss and crossed from darkness into the light. The Surfer and the Sage addresses the 18 relentless, breaking waves of life, from loss and aging to relationships and depression, and guides you to transformation. It is not a list of rules to follow that guarantee success, health, or wealth, but rather a collection of advice from two guides who have traveled far and wide and suffered deeply, but still look forward to tomorrow with faith and hope.

A surfer of 45 years I’ve understood the beauty of what mother nature has to offer. Going through life trials, and tribulations have shown me how small I am, and how mighty I can be. There’s a lot I don’t know, but what I do know is based on experience my experience thank you Sean and Sage for you are one as we are whole🙏🏾

I have read and listened to a lot of self help, inner focused books and they seem to all have the same info. The Surfer and the Sage brings a new perspective that I enjoyed so much I plan to listen to the book again. Here is a quote that really resonated with me “When you win win like a gentleman when you lose lose like a man”. Love that and many more insights in this book. A must grab and read book for sure.

Fantastic !

Really enjoyed the content and the back and forth between both views and perspectives. Positive and meaningful - will certainly listen to this again! Shared as a gift as well. I love the water and although not a surfer, the meanings were not lost upon me. Hope to learn someday. Thank you!

Excellent material!

I rarely write a review on any of the numerous books I have read throughout the years.

"The Surfer and the Sage" is more than an eye-opener or two individuals sharing their life perspectives. The authors allow the readers to conduct a self-assessment of their own lives every step (chapter) of the way. You can't ignore it - they empower the reader by letting them know "courage is not the absence of fear, but how we wrestle with fear." Conducting a self-assessment takes courage in and of itself because many of us refuse to realize that wrestling with our fears is the first step to "true humility."
