When Your Setback Becomes Your Setup for a Comeback ft. Tim Storey
About this episode
Tim Storey is back on Called & Crowned! And this time, we’re going even deeper.
He’s the Original Comeback Coach. Author. Life strategist. The man Oprah called on for Super Soul. The one Robert Downey Jr. credits in his story of redemption. And he grew up in Compton, California, where losing his father at ten years old became the foundation for everything God would build through him.
In this episode, Emily and Tim unpack the Miracle Mentality, the framework that’s helped millions move from mundane to magical thinking. They dig into the 8 Buckets of Life, the Law of the Harvest, and why your comeback isn’t just about bouncing back… It’s about being positioned for something greater.
Whether you’re in a season of building or a season of breaking, this conversation is your invitation to rise.
