Show Notes

Born in Athens, Greece as an Air Force brat, Teri M. Brown now calls the North Carolina coast home. In 2020, she and her husband, Bruce, rode a tandem bicycle across the United States from Astoria, Oregon to Washington DC, successfully raising money for Toys for Tots. Her latest work, 10 Little Rules for a Double-Butted Adventure, launches February 2025 and is an inspirational look at the life lessons she learned riding across the United States on a tandem bicycle.

QUOTE: "ā›” ā€œDon’t quit on a bad day. Rest, regroup, and then decide. You’ll always wonder if you could’ve gone on.ā€ - Teri M. Brown

Fergie’s Top 5+ Knowledge Nuggets and Take-Aways:

  1. 🚓 Challenge yourself with something bold and physical. When you do the hard thing—like biking across the country—you prove to yourself that nothing is out of reach.
  2. šŸ’› Let your emotions guide your transformation. Vulnerability is strength, and when you tap into it, it opens doors you didn’t know existed.
  3. ā³ Never let fear delay your dreams. It’s never too late to start the life you were meant to live—no matter what you've been through.
  4. ā¤ļø Create from the heart, not the head. Emotional connection—not perfection—is what resonates most.
  5. 🧹 Stop using ā€œwriter’s blockā€ as an excuse. What you really need is space, silence, and stillness. Clear your mind, and the words will flow.
  6. šŸ’– Real love doesn’t rescue you—it respects you. When someone honors your truth, you’ll know it’s real.
