Description

In this episode of The Grit Mindset, host Matt Rosen sits down with his friend, neighbor, and respected healthcare leader Becky Tucker, SVP of Channel Integration at Texas Health Resources, one of the largest faith-based nonprofit healthcare systems in North Texas.Becky oversees thousands of employees —yet her road to leadership began far from the boardroom. From her early years as a competitive gymnast who moved away from home at just 11, to the injury that first sparked her interest in healthcare, Becky shares how resilience, discipline, and faith shaped her path.She opens up about:Her unlikely entry into the hospital world—starting as an administrative assistant after being the “backup hire,” and eventually becoming Texas Health’s first internal resident selected for its leadership fellowship.Rising through the ranks by embracing ambiguity, building new programs from the ground up, and leading major system-wide innovations in ambulatory and emergency care.Leading through COVID as a hospital president—navigating fear, scarce resources, and emotional exhaustion while keeping her team grounded through transparency, teamwork, and sheer grit.Being a female executive in a male-dominated field, including the eye-opening moment when a state representative assumed every man in the room—except her—was the hospital president.Family, mentors, and finding your village—and why grit must always be balanced with grace.Becky also shares the powerful influence of her rancher father’s work ethic, the importance of role models, and how she instills grit in her own children by modeling hard work, gratitude, and service.This is a conversation filled with vulnerability, leadership lessons, and the kind of real-world wisdom that defines The Grit Mindset.Stay gritty out there.
