Bubba Herrick

Bubba Herrick is a former Divison 1 Baseball Player at Jacksonville University, where he underwent a failed elbow procedure that caused a stopping of his heart, resulting in a profound Near-Death Experience that changed his life. Combining his lessons in leadership from his experience as a high-level athlete with the knowledge and faith-based wisdom from his encounter with death, Bubba travels the United States speaking with sports teams across High School, College, and Professional levels as well as various other communities seeking an alternative life and leadership perspective.
Bubba is currently writing his first book, “Becoming Ready to Die,” where he outlines the key takeaways that have assisted him in dissolving his fear of death, finding his purpose, and ensuring that before he dies again, no stone will ever be left unturned.
When he’s not writing or speaking, Bubba enjoys spending time in nature, training in martial arts, reading, writing, and engaging in thought-provoking conversations.
