This week on Affirm That Sh!t, I’m joined by Terry Healey—an author, speaker, and cancer survivor whose story will stop you in your tracks. At 21, Terry was diagnosed with fibrosarcoma, a rare cancer that led to multiple surgeries, facial disfigurement, and the kind of emotional battles most of us can’t imagine. But instead of giving in, Terry chose to fight—not just for his life, but for his worth.
In this raw and unapologetic conversation, Terry shares the truth about trauma, resilience, and how to keep going when everything feels impossible. From being abandoned by friends to finding salvation in group therapy, from wrestling with faith to writing The Resilience Mindset—Terry lays it all out.
This isn’t a story about surviving. It’s a story about claiming your power, rewriting your reflection, and refusing to let life define you.
If you’ve ever been knocked down and wondered how to rise again—this is the episode you need.
