About Terry
I’ve spent damn near 20 years in health and safety — nuclear sites, construction projects, fossil plants — you know, places where mistakes don’t get a meeting, they get a memorial. Real work. Real hazards. Real consequences.
I’ve seen safety done right…
and I’ve seen it treated like paperwork cosplay so management can say “we tried” while the Grim Reaper warms up in the bullpen.
That’s why I run Safety Spiel.
This isn’t for corporate safety influencers or policy reciters who’ve never worn PPE that smelled like regret. This is for new and early-career safety folks who are overwhelmed, outgunned, and one bad day away from wondering why they ever took the job.
No corporate buzzwords.
No textbook fairy tales.
No “best practices” written by people who’ve never been on site before sunrise.
Just straight talk, hard-earned lessons, and practical advice from someone who’s been close enough to the blast radius to know what actually matters.
If you’re brand new, barely surviving your first role, or trying to level up without becoming that safety person everyone avoids in the lunchroom, this is for you.
I’m here to help you do the job competently, confidently, and correctly —
without selling your soul, your credibility, or your spine.
Because safety done wrong is annoying.
Safety done right keeps people alive.
