According to a survey conducted by the University of the Pacific, 88.3% of California public high school principals reported that students in their schools are interested or enthusiastic about school assemblies.
But to stay engaged, many students desire some level of interactivity. Terry brings a blend of storytelling and learnings with a degree of interaction that helps students take away key lessons and employ them in their everyday lives.
Terry helps students and student-athletes boost self-esteem and confidence and learn why they should never lose hope.
In his presentations, Terry covers ways to decrease anxiety, address insecurities, overcome adversity, learn resilience and renewal, and develop a mindset for success.
Speaking topics and workshops include:
Navigating Life’s Roadblocks: Attitude, Focus and Teamwork
Based on his book with the same title, author Terry Healey takes you through his harrowing personal ordeal and what enabled him to focus on the positive aspects of his life that weren’t only lessons he learned, but gifts that he could impart to others struggling with their own challenges.
Turning Points and Survivor Kits
Through some personal storytelling, Terry conveys the importance of taking note of ‘potential’ turning points in life and how to ensure that you create your own personal survival kit that will help you with career challenges, personal discovery, or physical challenges that may change the way you interact with others.
Dealing With Adversity and Taking Control of Your Life
Based on Terry’s extreme experience with adversity in his own life, Terry shares with us the lessons he learned about how to deal with adversity and how being focused and taking control of your life are the keys to making those difficulties not only tolerable but also valuable in our personal growth and development. Terry encourages the audience to confront things head on and to embrace, rather than fear our world that is constantly changing.
Embracing Our Differences
Terry focuses this interactive presentation on how truly different each and every one of us is, and demonstrates how we frequently make judgments of people that are oftentimes incorrect. Participants will walk away with a better appreciation for why we need to embrace diversity and strive to be more tolerant.
