This week I have TEDx Talk speaker, best-selling author, and viral TikTok sensation Terrance McMahon on the podcast. Terrance has lived a LIFE ya'll, from selling life insurance door-to-door to finding major success as a CEO to almost dying of massive organ failure to writing the comeback story of the century. And he's here to tell us what it truly takes to transform.
In this episode, you will hear:
Coaching Questions & Thoughts:
What reputations do you have that you're currently living up to? What new ones could you adopt to help create a new, more-aligned identity?
Can you think of a time where the worst thing that's ever happened to you actually turned out to be the best thing?
What is your healing message that the world needs to hear?
If today was the start of your comeback story, how might it look?
