Terry Tucker is a former NCAA athlete, motivational speaker, cancer warrior, and author of Sustainable Excellence. After surviving 13 years of intense cancer treatments, including an amputation, Terry continues to inspire others to reframe fear, embrace discomfort, and live with urgency and purpose. His life is a testament to the truth that real strength begins where comfort ends.
In this motivational and deeply personal conversation, Terry talks about how the human brain is naturally wired to avoid discomfort—but why growth, healing, and true strength only come when you face what scares you.
Terry shares a daily practice that has helped him build resilience: doing at least one thing every day that makes you uncomfortable, nervous, or scared. This simple habit, he explains, conditions you to be emotionally and mentally prepared for life's inevitable major setbacks—whether it's loss, illness, or unexpected challenges.
Paired with host Kali’s powerful reflection on pushing past personal paradigms, this segment serves as a call to action for anyone feeling stuck, scared, or waiting for "the right time" to be brave.
