Welcome to The CLIMB—a podcast for men who are tired of coasting… and ready to rise.
I’m Teko Bailey—husband, father, coach, and your guide in the climb. I believe there’s a hero inside every man.
But that hero doesn’t just show up on the mountain peaks…
He’s forged in the fire.
In the silence.
In the valleys.
In the everyday.
This isn’t a podcast about pretending to have it all together.
It’s about waking up to the purpose inside of you—
and learning to walk it out with God, step by step.
Some episodes will be short, raw devotionals.
Some will be honest solo teachings.
And others will be conversations with men who’ve walked through the storm… and kept climbing.
Whether you’re navigating fatherhood, rebuilding after failure, or searching for what’s next—this space is for you.
You don’t need to climb alone.
And you don’t need to have it all figured out.
You just need to take the next step.

From Loss to Legacy: Greg Boyd on Grief, Growth, and Living Intentionally
When tragedy strikes, it tests everything you believe about yourself, your faith, and your purpose. In this episode of The Climb, Teko Bailey sits down with Greg Boyd—founder of Vienna Waits—to unpack how he rebuilt his life after losing his wife, Allison, to glioblastoma at just 34.
From the depths of grief and fatherhood through COVID, Greg learned to live intentionally, parent with compassion, and build a new life rooted in gratitude and action. He opens up about his journey from anxiety and high-performance culture in the tech world to discovering the healing power of presence, therapy, community, and purpose.
Greg shares how therapy gave him the tools to face grief head-on, why men must take off their “hero” armor to heal, and how post-traumatic growth reveals strength you never knew you had. Together, he and Teko explore what it means to live in alignment with your true self—and why taking action, not waiting for the “right time,” is the first step toward freedom.
