Faith Beyond with Tim Maceyko
Finding life success and fulfillment after adversity strikes is hard. We can be left questioning what it all means, why we are here, and how we go on. The Faith Beyond Podcast delves into topics like grief and loss, dealing with addiction, and various other forms of trauma and extreme adversity. Faith Beyond is about learning how each of us can use the pain of today for a better tomorrow.
The podcast also presents information about health and fitness, including both Eastern and Western beliefs and views on how we can improve our overall health. The show even takes a look at various belief systems found around the world and why individuals believe the way they do. At Faith Beyond, we present concepts, but never tell you what to think.
Author, Speaker, and Coach Tim Maceyko acts as your host, bringing valuable insight on overcoming adversity based on his personal experiences. At the age of sixteen, Tim was left with a broken neck, paralyzed after an automobile accident. He instantly went from a talented young athlete to a paraplegic, relying on others to take care of his every need. The accident changed his life trajectory, but in time, he learned to feed and bathe himself again. Eventually, he got out of his wheelchair and hasn't stopped since. He went on to become a successful coach. But tragedy struck a second time, when later in life, Tim and his wife lost their five-year-old son in a bunk bed accident. And then, a few years after the loss of their son, their teenage daughter was diagnosed with cancer. The hits kept coming.
Yet through it all, Tim has found a way to survive and thrive. He believes that those who have experienced trauma and/or extreme adversity are best positioned to find higher levels of life success and fulfillment. He espouses the value of Post Traumatic Growth (PTG) which can only be experienced by those who have faced the trauma. Tim even shares his secret Fulfillment Formula, a way to find success despite life's setbacks.

A Near Death Experience with Guest Sherman O’Bryan
This week, I interview a normal guy with a not-so-normal story. Sherman O'Bryan joins the podcast to share the difficult moments of his life and how an out-of-body experience gave him renewed faith. Do people really have Near Death Experiences (NDEs)? It may be more common than we think. I found our conversation fascinating.
And for this episode's "Sign of Hope" segment, I am sharing one of the many signs that I personally experienced after the loss of my child. You can read all about the signs I received and hear more about my difficult journey out of the darkness by getting my book, When the Cardinal Calls, on Amazon.
Please be sure to share the podcast with your family and friends to help us grow the show! And you can find me on Twitter and Instagram @TimMaceyko, on Facebook at Faith Beyond with Tim Maceyko, and at FathBeyond.org
