About Tom Turcich

Global adventurer who walked around the world
First person to complete world walk with dog
Author of memoir chronicling seven-year journey
Tom Turcich is a global adventurer who transformed his life's journey into a powerful message of resilience and purpose. As the tenth person to walk around the world and the first to do so with a dog, Tom inspires audiences to embrace audacious goals and overcome seemingly impossible challenges through unwavering determination.

Tom's credentials include seven years traversing 28,000 miles across 38 countries on five continents, an achievement documented by CNN, BBC, and The Guardian. His memoir, "The World Walk: Seven Years in Search of Meaning", published by Skyhorse Publishing, chronicles this remarkable journey that began after a profound personal loss inspired him to make the most of life.

Tom helps organizations navigate modern business challenges by demonstrating how constraints drive innovation and creativity. His experiences crossing deserts, mountains, and borders provide practical frameworks for embracing uncertainty, building resilience, and finding solutions when conventional approaches fail. His insights on value-driven action and clear vision translate directly to workplace challenges and strategic planning.

Audiences leave Tom's presentations with concrete strategies for setting meaningful goals, developing mental toughness during difficult transitions, and maintaining focus amid distractions. His authentic storytelling creates powerful connections that inspire people to push beyond perceived limitations and take decisive action toward their objectives.

Book Tom Turcich to transform your team's perspective on what's possible when determination meets a clear vision of success.
