Because peace isn’t found in silence. It’s built in the storm.
The world isn’t getting quieter — but you can.
Hosted by Shaun Tucker — health scientist, breathwork facilitator, and self-mastery coach — Grounded in the Noise explores what it means to stay centered, strong, and clear in a world that won’t slow down.
Each episode is a real conversation with fighters, healers, parents, creators, and seekers who’ve learned to find calm in chaos. Together, we explore the messy, meaningful process of coming home to yourself — through breath, truth, and presence.
No spiritual bypassing. No performance coaching. Just honest dialogue, embodied wisdom, and practical tools to help you return to your grounded self — no matter how loud life gets.
Because peace isn’t passive.
It’s power.
And when you can find it — even in the noise — you become unshakeable.

In this first episode of Grounded in the Noise, Shaun sits down with Steve Tolen — a senior sales leader, growth partner, and creator of the 5 Before the Call framework — to explore what it really means to grow beyond your comfort zone.
This isn’t just a conversation about sales or business. It’s about the inner game — how courage, discipline, and attitude shape who we become when life gets loud.
Together, Shaun and Steve dive into leadership through example, the link between consistency and confidence, and the difference between chasing results and embodying growth.
“What growth comes from sitting in the comfort zone?”
“The best leaders I’ve had are the ones that show me how it’s done.”
“No one knows for sure whether you’ll win — but you can control how you prepare.”
