05 | Sailing Life's Course - Lessons in Commitment and Integrity with Ted Allison


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Ted Allison, who’s living proof that life gets better with age. His journey is filled with adventurous living, candid lessons, and personal growth. From competitive sailing to public speaking, Ted shares stories that highlight the importance of embracing failure, staying committed, and reflecting on the choices that shape your path.

We also talk about his “Truly Twice Ted” moment—a comeback story you won’t want to miss—and how making intentional decisions and staying true to yourself leads to a more fulfilling life.

Key Takeaways:

  • Commitment & Integrity: The freedom you’re looking for often comes from sticking to your decisions and staying true to your values.
  • Failing Forward: Every experience, good or bad, has something to teach us—if we’re willing to look.
  • Self-Reflection: Building a strong relationship with yourself is the foundation for navigating challenges and showing up fully in life.
  • Education Reimagined: Through “Mickey’s Papers,” Ted shows how real-world experiences can teach us more than traditional education ever could.
  • Authentic Connections: Sharing your story creates a ripple effect of understanding, growth, and connection with others.

This episode is full of wisdom and heart—and I know you’ll walk away inspired to live your life with more intention and adventure.
