118: Supporting our friends, with Terry Tucker

From Project BFF HQ, Terri and Manya riff with Terry Tucker, about stop worrying about dying and focusing on living. He is a cancer patient, and he shares with us some of what he has learned about friendship through this journey. He reminds us of the importance of being there to support our friends when they are going through a difficult time.

Also, he used to be a hostage negotiator and that came up a couple of times.  7-38-55: Learn about why these numbers matter when we are communicating.

In his professional career, Terry has been a marketing executive, a hospital administrator, a SWAT Team Hostage Negotiator, a high school basketball coach, a business owner, a motivational speaker, and for the past twelve years, a cancer warrior (which has resulted in the amputation of his foot in 2018 and his leg in 2020).

Thank you for listening.

After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to shut down Project BFF and the podcast. Our last podcast episode aired on August 23, 2024. We are leaving the podcast live on Buzzsprout through the end of 2024.

We are proud of this podcast and honored to have hosted such amazing and engaging guests.

Our hope is that Project BFF and Friendshipable have inspired you to form new friendships, strengthen existing ones, and encourage others to do the same

Thank you for being a part of our story. The two of us have truly deepened our friendship during this time, and we look forward to new and memorable adventures together in and around New England, which serves as the adopted home for both of us.

With gratitude and friendship,
Manya and Terri
