Thomas Craig
"" A podcast where we explore the bright side to life's darkest moments.""
About Me:
Aloha! I’m Thomas Craig, a plane crash and burn survivor turned podcaster, speaker, and advocate for resilience, positivity, and mental health. As the host of The Sick Burn Podcast, I share real conversations with people who have overcome life’s darkest moments — from trauma and loss to illness and recovery — and highlight the mindsets, practices, and hope that helped them through and thrive.
I’m originally from Mililani, Hawai‘i and now based in San Diego, CA. With roots in community, storytelling, and spreading aloha, my mission is to inspire people everywhere to shift toward more positive thinking — not by ignoring life’s struggles, but by turning adversity into lessons, strength, and a better way forward.
