What if resilience isn't something you're born with, but something you can learn to build?
Award-winning author, keynote speaker, business strategist, and storyteller Terry Healey joins host Laura Ezzell on the Notable Men Podcast for a conversation about resilience, gratitude, emotional courage, leadership, and learning to grow through change.
At 21, Terry was diagnosed with a life-threatening cancer that led to more than 30 surgeries and a permanent facial difference. His experience ultimately taught him that resilience isn't simply about returning to who you were before adversity. It's about learning, adapting, accepting change, and continuing to grow.
Terry shares his REBAR framework: Reflect, Build, Act, Renew, a practical approach to navigating adversity and strengthening resilience. He also explores the role gratitude and hope play during difficult periods, why emotional intelligence matters in leadership, and how learning to share his vulnerabilities transformed his understanding of courage.
In this episode, Terry shares:
- Why resilience can be learned and strengthened
- How gratitude can change your perspective during adversity
- What Terry's REBAR framework teaches about navigating change
- Why reflection is an important resilience-building habit
- How hope helps us cope and adapt
- Why emotional intelligence matters in leadership
- How mistakes and failures contribute to growth
- Why disruption can create unexpected opportunities
- What self-acceptance has to do with resilience
- Why vulnerability is a form of emotional courage
- How adversity can deepen empathy
- Why embracing change can help you grow through it
- How difficult experiences can lead to greater purpose
- What to practice when you're struggling with your attitude
Terry's journey is a reminder that resilience doesn't require becoming the person you were before adversity. Sometimes growth means accepting who you've become, recognizing what you've gained, and developing the courage to move forward.
