Finding the courage to pursue your passions and your dreams when you don't feel supported in your endeavors is unbelievably difficult. Shemane chats with her husband Ted about his decades-long career and what drives him to continue to pursue excellence every day. Ted shares his opinions about today's society, why bow hunting is tantamount to superstardom, and how to find your self-esteem, because having courage is up to you. Ted is legitimately a rockstar. He has been writing, playing, and performing rock and roll music for over 50 years. He's also an avid hunter and outdoorsman, and a loving husband and father. But how does he find the passion and energy to keep going? How did he keep working and driving when times were hard? Where did he find the courage to continue on when things weren't going well? First, he never gave up! Even when times were hard. Listen to Shemane and Ted chat about his upbringing and why it was essential to how he lives his life to this day. Ever feel like you don't have a choice on which path you should take each day? Ted has a completely different opinion to share with you about how the decisions you make every day impact your ability to dig deep and keep going. Ted and Shemane also discuss passion. Every person has their own passion, but for many, the end goal is the only thing to be seen. For Ted, the end goal shouldn't enter your mind. When you focus on the path or the process, you will find your goal, but you will also build and grow so that you are ready for the rewards your goal has in store. His outspoken beliefs and opinions are unbelievably refreshing in an overly "PC" world. You won't want to miss out on why your self-esteem is your responsibility. If you've been feeling a little less courageous lately, then take a moment to listen to this episode. [00:22] Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to spend it with me!
