Summary

How did one man's battle with cancer reshape his approach to life and mentoring? Mike Coy reveals the key habits and mindset shifts that have helped him succeed in multiple fields, even in the face of serious health challenges.

In today’s episode, I chatted with Mike Coy, a coach and mentor in sports and insurance. Mike's journey is about consistency, trust, and resilience. He highlighted the importance of sticking to a plan and trusting the process, whether coaching young athletes or mentoring new agents at Aflac. We also delved into his battle with HPV-related cancer, where a healthy lifestyle and regular health checks were crucial to his recovery.

Mike's cancer battle, compounded by the stress of a recent divorce, weakened his immune system. Despite these challenges, he chose to live, focusing on his desire to see his grandchildren grow up and walk his daughter down the aisle. His experience underscored the importance of regular health screenings, stress management, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Key Takeaways:

 

  • Stress can severely impact health. Finding ways to manage and reduce stress is crucial for overall well-being.

 

  • Having a purpose and staying resilient in the face of challenges can drive recovery and personal growth.

 

  • Adopting healthy habits, such as regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and avoiding harmful substances, is vital.
