Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Series - 3

Being diagnosed with cancer can be a challenging journey, but it doesn't have to define you.  Listen to this fascinating story of one survivor's journey to excellence after a melanoma diagnosis. It will inspire you to keep moving forward and live your best life!

Cancer is a diagnosis that can shatter even the strongest among us. Facing an illness like this can make us question our purpose and our ability to withstand the physical and emotional challenges that come with it. My guest Terry Tucker, an inspiring survivor, faced a rare form of melanoma - acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) diagnosed initially in 2012. 

Despite being given a low chance of survival, Terry persevered after surgeries and treatments. He believes that going through adversity teaches us something and can make us better human beings. This incredible speaker and man of many talents now finds his purpose in sharing his story and inspiring others to push beyond self imposed  limits. We will dive deeper into how Terry overcame his adversity by facing it with a positive mindset and sheer grit.

You can reach Terry at Motivationalcheck.com and on social media Twitter and LinkedIn
