When life throws you a curveball, how do you catch it and throw it back? Teisha, founder of "Hurdle to Hope," joins us to share her powerful story of facing multiple sclerosis and stage four breast cancer with unwavering optimism. Her journey is one of remarkable resilience, not just in coping with her diagnosis but in turning her struggles into a platform for encouraging others.
We dive into the emotions and strategies behind starting her podcast "Wellbeing Interrupted" and explore how setting a podcast launch date instills a sense of personal accountability and provides a beacon of hope for many facing similar battles.
Launching a podcast presents an emotional rollercoaster, and Teisha's narrative is no different. Starting "Wellbeing Interrupted" was born out of Teisha's dual diagnosis and the following realizations; "I found strength in the unimagined possibilities that reshaped my life's trajectory, and it's from this place of growth that I craft each episode."
The conversation with Teisha isn't just about her story; it's an insight into the creation process, the vulnerability of revealing personal trauma, and the thrill that comes from finding your voice and knowing it resonates with others on a deep, personal level.
Stepping into the world of online content creation can turn adversity into a pathway for contribution, and our episode is a testament to this truth. We highlight Amy Porterfield's impact on the housebound community, the role of mindset in illness management, and how to navigate the perfectionism that often accompanies serious health challenges.
