WHEN DOCTORS SAID HE WOULD NEVER HAVE AN ORDINARY LIFE, THEY DIDN’T KNOW HE’D LIVE AN EXTRAORDINARY ONE….

Sourena Vasseghi (Sourena V.) is an award-winning author and inspirational speaker whose stirring affect on people has brought him national media attention and a rapidly growing audience worldwide.

Despite having lived an extraordinary life, Sourena is driven by the one thing he struggles to have—the ordinary. Confined to a wheelchair and trapped within his own body, he lives his life always looking for the proverbial next step; while the severe cerebral palsy that limits his movement does not diminish his will or determination to enrich the future, it does prohibit him from doing the little things in life things that are often taken for granted.

Through his writing and speaking engagements, Sourena shares his message of how the ordinary should be a gift that is embraced and shared. He believes the simple things in life should not be overlooked, such as giving one’s spouse a kiss on the cheek in the morning or calling a friend—moments that are not usually celebrated for being as truly remarkable as they are. After all, without the ordinary…there would be no extraordinary.
