It Just Takes One

In this episode, Joy McCulloch shares about her chapter titled "Hammer–Nail–Hammer: Realizing Greatness Through Failure". We discuss how sometimes, as hard as you try, there will be times when fate is not in your favor. How you dust yourself off and get back in it will set you up for success.

The coaching story that Joy shares highlights the highs and lows of any athlete. The duality of being a champion, and in the next breath, a ‘loser’. It’s so important to have a coach who can speak truth to you in all moments.

No matter where you are in your journey, this message speaks to every stage. Whether you are on top of the mountain, tumbling down the mountain, or picking yourself back up in the valley, you will find the MAGIK in her message.

On today's episode, you are going to meet Tim Carter, bestselling author of the book, Find A Way: Unlocking Your Best Self.

Tim believes that everyone, no matter what age they are, occupation, life situation, etc., faces some level of adversity at some point in their lives. Adversity that seems insurmountable and includes obstacles they are unsure they can overcome. And with that, Tim also believes everyone has a "deep mental space" that they can tap into and unlock the ability to overcome their adversity whether it's in their health, wealth, relationships, or experiences in life. Oftentimes, we don't know how to tap into that mental space or resilience. Tim has experienced these situations of adversity and sometimes still does. He wanted this book to serve as a beacon of hope, light, reassurance, and action items to take to find solutions and literally find a way.

In Find A Way: Unlocking Your Best Self, Tim Carter provides the framework for creating your best life, tapping into your resilience, maximizing your focus, time, and energy, and redefining your legacy.

• Focusing on the things that challenge us to go deeper.
• Maximizing and cherishing the time we have now and the opportunities to press on.
• Giving energy to the things, people or places that move us. Refuting the opposite.

There's always another level. #GetAfterIt
