We were lucky to catch up with Terri Wade recently and have shared our conversation below.

Terri , appreciate you joining us today. What’s the backstory behind how you came up with the idea for your business?

Like many people, I am multi-passionate and have a wide range of skills. Doesn’t sound like a problem but when starting a business we need to speak clearly to how we can help our clients with their specific problem so they know that what we offer is for them.

I tried and tested many niches to see if I liked it and there was a demand for it. Hiring coaches helped me but it was using my intuition and the guidance from the all knowing wisdom within me to find my true path. My first coaches told me what I should do, I tried, and it didn’t stick. I wasn’t sold on the idea and didn’t enjoy it much. That being said it was great to get momentum and to get in the habit of showing up and taking action.

I feel that our path is linked to something we do very well and don’t even realize it. It comes naturally to us. I found out that my genius is bring joy and light to the world. It wasn’t always this way. I was suicidal as a child after intense bullying, but over came it and am one of the happiest people most know.

After realizing this, I took a certification on Positive Psychology so that I could master my craft and get the necessary tools and interventions behind living a positive life. Now I use my talents and expertise to speak around the nation, I have a best selling book anthologyf called Becoming Dynamic, a book that will launch October 2023 called A-Z happy, an Abundance Mastermind and online courses.

My hope is that all people find what lights them up and goes for it. The world needs more light.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I am Professional Speaker, the host of Tuesdays with Terri Youtube Show and Author of the book Becoming Dynamic.

I’m certified in Spiritual Life Coaching, Positive Psychology Coaching and 21st Century Leadership Skills.

Since 2010, I have helped thousands of entrepreneurs and executives step into their purpose, create an abundant mindset, and become the person who has the success they desire.

What sets me apart is that I use Science and Spirituality to help people find their purpose and meaning in their life. I live in integrity with what I share and teach. I love life and people feel it. I empower people to live their best life and become the person who has the success they desire.

I am most proud of my connection with God, Infinite Love, Divine wisdom, the creator of all that is, whatever most resonates with you. Words are symbols so it’s not important what its called but the relationship with the loving presence that created us is my biggest joy.

We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.

When I was younger I got bullied every day, and at 8 years old I had a plan to end my life. I remember walking down the narrow hallway from my room to the bathroom and out of the corner of my eye I noticed my dads’ door cracked open and I saw him close his dresser drawer which had a gun in it. My mind began to race, my heart started beating outside of my chest, my breathing was faint, “that’s it”! This could be my way out of all the bullying and being such a problem everyone (so I thought at the time, I mean why else was I being bullied).

The more I felt victimized, unloved and alone the more those types of situations seemed to show in my mind and my reality. I now know what we focus on grows and expands to take up our whole site that we don’t notice everything else happening around us. I was consumed by self loathing, self doubt and a huge lack of self love. So, I put together a plan to end my life.

I didn’t go through with it, I was taken to therapy and felt seen, like I mattered. This is a huge part of my mission today, I don’t want people to feel like they are alone and lost with no way out. For me, it was learning how my mind works and learning about metaphysical concepts and spiritually that gave me the understanding that my life mattered. I take this mission into my work everyday and it keeps me on tract and motivated.

How did you build your audience on social media?

Story telling and relationship building have been the big reason I have been able to grow my audience online. I build relationships with being active in my community groups online, partnering with other business accounts with a similar audience and providing great content.

Creating content that is educational, interesting and motivating gets people engaged. I like to ask for engagement in my posts and to share the message with someone who needs to hear it.
