With unending gratitude, last week, my book, Be Still: How Ordinary Moments Led to Surrender, became the #1 Best Seller and #1 New Release in Amazon’s Lacrosse category.

BE STILL IS A #1 BEST SELLING NOVEL! With unending gratitude, last week, my book, Be Still: How Ordinary Moments Led to Surrender, became the #1 Best Seller and #1 New Release in Amazon’s Lacrosse category. This milestone belongs to every family member, friend, teammate, mentor, community, and reader around the world who took a chance on a first-time author and helped carry this message around the world. Four years ago, lacrosse began this manuscript with a chapter titled “Make an Impact” about advice my High School Lacrosse Coach gave me and sparked my entire post HS Journey in everything I do. Last year, I picked the manuscript back up in June 2025 to process the end of my collegiate Lacrosse career at UH with the #OneMore chapter, a chapter that defines a lot of who I am as a person. This year, when I got serious about finishing the book, Lacrosse started it again with the “A teammate eight years in the making” which showed me how sometimes people we look up to may walk along side us one day. The impact will continue beyond the book. All of my author profits will be divided between the One Love Foundation and Shootout for Soldiers two organizations that became meaningful parts of my faith and lacrosse journeys. Bella and the Book 🐶🐾 Thank you to everyone who purchased a copy, shared the announcement, offered encouragement, or saw part of your own story within these pages. Four years. Thirty-two stories where Christ met me. One act of surrender. ✝️ We made an impact. Thank you. ❤️🥍📖

BE STILL CHARITY ANNOUNCEMENT! ❤️🥍 I wrote this book to share the story of my miracle. Now, I want it to help create someone else’s. Along with Be Still becoming available worldwide, I’m proud to announce that ALL of my author profits from Be Still: How Ordinary Moments Led to Surrender will be divided between @join1love and @shootoutforsoldiers This is my independent commitment and my choice. Neither organization endorses, sponsors, or is officially affiliated with Be Still. At the center of this book is one question: “Who is Jesus Christ to Sean Sheikh?” My answer ultimately came down to one word: service. Christ taught me that faith is not merely something I profess, it is something I live by loving others, serving them, and using my story for something greater than myself. The One Love Foundation has shaped how I understand relationships and challenged me to become a better friend, partner, and person. Since 2022, I’ve carried the message of 1❤️ and its lessons throughout my life. I proudly handmade and wore the One Love logo on my lacrosse helmet as a reminder that Yeardley Love’s story is seen, remembered, and continuing to make a difference. Beyond my love of Christ, the center of this book is relationships and how God used people in my life to wake me up spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. People are in Heaven so I believe we should invest in people who regardless of who they are, I believe deserve to be loved/seen, which is what called me to do this. Shootout for Soldiers has shown me how the sport I love can become an instrument of service. Through Shootout for Soldiers Houston, we brought the University of Houston–Rice lacrosse rivalry to life through the Bayou Bucket, a game that gave both programs the opportunity to compete for something greater than themselves while supporting our nation’s veterans. As someone from a Gold Star family, that mission is deeply personal to me. One of the stories highlighted in my book also began at the University of Houston in a class taught by Steve Wilbur, an Army veteran who became my favorite professor at UH! Both organizations represent important parts of the story behind this book: loving people we

WROTE A BOOK! 📖✝️ Since 2022, I’ve grown to ask the question: What would my future kids think if their dad didn’t just tell them he intentionally pursued Christ, but showed them how he tried to live it? Not just the victories, but my habits from childhood, imperfections, relationships, setbacks, moments where I was right/wrong, accountability, and the ordinary encounters that revealed extraordinary things within me. I realized I didn’t want to leave my future family with just lessons, but with 32 stories. So after 4 years of writing this book and 3 attempts, I present… BE STILL: How Ordinary Moments led to Surrender ✝️ This book may have my name on the cover, but countless people and conversations from have left fingerprints on these pages. I dreamed of writing a book since high school. I never expected finishing it would require some of the hardest conversations and deepest emotional growth of my life. 📖 Be Still ✍️ Sean Sheikh 📆 September 4th 2026 (no pre-order link) Format/Cover: Lioner Publishing Publisher: KDP (Paperback & Ebook) *cover under development subject to change In Be Still, I share stories like… The biggest lesson I learned from my master’s #OneMore 🐾 How my my family inspired and opened a sports academy that now serves more than 400 children in Pakistan ❤️ How volunteering with Miracle League and other organizations helped me understand what a Heart of Service is ❤️✝️ How watching Survivor as a kid shaped the way I approach community, and why I fell in love with the show all over again this year. 🏝️ How helping build Pakistan’s first-ever U.S. lacrosse team led me to confront my pride during one unforgettable weekend… 🇵🇰 What caring deeply about someone revealed about the way I communicated, and how it changed the way I listened to help others feel seen. Plus the NFL Quarterback who helped me introduce those lessons to relationships. 🏈❤️ My heart to heart with God in Cancun and what 3 things with Jason Brown set the faithful foundation for our friendship 2021-now ⚾️🥍 The conversation with my favorite Christian artist that reminded me God often works through ordinary people ✝️🎤 How a 13-year friendship through Cardfig

IS NATIONALLY FAMOUS 💲✅ Last December I flew to LA by myself and randomly decided to audition ONE TIME for ONE episode of @therealpriceisright 🔥 After seeing the show sporadically since I was a kid and then saying “I’d love to do that one day,” I somehow went from watching 3 episodes on the airplane, auditioning, and waiting for hours… to hearing: “SEAN SHEIKH COME ON DOWN!!!” Not only did I get called down, I walked away with prize money from Contestant’s Row 😂 Huge thank you to @cbstv the casting producers for the opportunity. And special shoutout to my former Philippines Lacrosse teammate @benpinero, who got me a Cameo from one of my favorite Survivor players, @sophibalerdi, encouraging me to keep taking chances on myself and trust where life could lead. That message genuinely meant a lot during this season of my life. Ironically, while I didn’t win a car on TV… the prize money helped me gain some financial freedom toward getting my brand new 2026 Subaru Crosstrek in April, and some things to come :) 🚙 🔥🏝️ #OneMore

my “why” of Team Pakistan is the phrase I say all the time: “take the chance to lose because you deserve to win.” It’s not easy starting a national team. When I made the decision to join Pakistan Lacrosse, I never imagined I’d start/lead the team’s US debut, and we did it!! There’s been so much excitement, pressure, nervousness, pride, and stress behind the scenes that most people never saw. People call me fearless for doing this, but if you talked to me the whole week, behind the smile I was nervous. Truthfully, this tournament hurt. Across 4 years, Im now a combined 0-20 in games as an international lacrosse player… But standing on that field representing something bigger than myself reminded me why I came here in the first place. Share stories, connect with a part of my heritage, play the game, meet the most elite people and teammates, and the life lesson to find more presence/love in my life. This week reminded me that life can’t only be about performance. Sometimes the best moments come from the people, conversations, support, memories you never expected to find along the way, and how I can be better for you through it. Thanks for saying yes. We’ll get #OneMore chance someday, and whether you know it or not, you inspired me this whole week. -Sean 🇵🇰🥍
