In this week’s episode I am delighted welcome on to my show an inspiring gentleman who brings with him a unique and positive bend to the idea of mental health and self-improvement.
 
Terry Tucker believes everyone is born to lead an uncommon and extraordinary life and that has nothing to do with where you work, how much money you make, or where you live. We are not all born with the same gifts and talents, but we all have the ability to become the best person we are capable of becoming. But how do you achieve this remarkable life in an age where everyone seems to just get by?

Terry Tucker has been an NCAA Division college basketball player, a Citadel cadet, a marketing executive, a hospital administrator, an undercover narcotics investigator, a SWAT Team Hostage Negotiator, a high school basketball coach, a business owner, a motivational speaker, an author, and most recently, a cancer warrior.

He is the author of, Sustainable Excellence, Ten Principle To Living Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life.

Terry and his wife have lived all over the United States and currently reside in Colorado with their daughter and Wheaten Terrier, Maggie.

In 2019, Terry started the website, Motivational Check to help others find and lead their uncommon and extraordinary lives.

Terry focuses on the 4 Truths, on the healthy aspect of being sick by:

1. Controlling your mind, so it doesn’t control you.

2. Embracing the pain and suffering and using it to make you a stronger and more determined individual.

3. Understanding what you leave behind is what you weave in the hearts of others.

4. Remembering that as long as you don’t quit, you can never be defeated.

Amongst many other struggles he has faced in his life, which we will go into in this episode, let’s welcome Terry Tucker to the show.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
