The Hurdle2Hope® Show
“Unexpected hurdles interrupt all of our lives.
But it is your mindset that will define your experience.”
The Hurdle2Hope® Show is a podcast about building the mindset you need when life doesn’t go to plan.
Hosted by Teisha Rose — keynote speaker, author, and founder of Hurdle2Hope® — this weekly interview-based show features real conversations with people who’ve faced unexpected hurdles, and those supporting others through burnout, change, and uncertainty.
From health challenges and work stress to life pivots and emotional pressure, we explore how to shift your mindset to match the moment with strength, power, and resilience.
Whether you're working through something personal or supporting others through it, this show offers grounded stories and practical tools to help you move forward in a way that works for you.
This isn’t about toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine.
It’s about choosing the mindset that serves you best and learning how to do that in real life.
🎧 New episodes every week.
Formerly titled “Wellbeing Interrupted.”
