My guest is someone who had the courage to overcome huge challenges by taking responsibility of his life choices. Ted Phaeton, an anchor/meteorologist with FOX Carolina in Greenville, SC joins us today to talk all about how utilizing our full potential. Ted hosts two podcasts, No Rain No Rainbows and the Modern Man Show, where he shares his wisdom about self improvement and guiding men to have better lives. In today’s episode, we dive into what Ted learnt through his life experiences, what it takes to make huge shifts in life, Ted’s passion projects, and more.
No Rain, No Rainbow – Ted’s perspective on how the hardships in life shape our future is pretty fascinating. We talk about Ted’s motto he’s been following for a long time and what it means for him.
Learnings from Academic Life – During his college years Ted had to face challenging situations and they paved the way for important realizations as well. Ted shares with us what he learnt through his college years, including how GPA reflects effort rather that intellect, how following interests lead us to identify things we’re passionate about.
Making Big Shifts – It takes lots of courage to leave something you’re already good at and move into a new career and Ted is no stranger to big shifts. We talk about how he gathers courage for big shifts and what he’s learned through change.
Patience and Stubbornness – According to Ted, patience comes from stubbornness. He shares with us how these two traits are connected and what role these traits play in his life.
Passion Projects – Ted has quite a few things he keeps doing just because he’s passionate about them. We talk about his two podcasts, and other passion projects he’s working on.
