Here at DN we love bringing you stories that light a fire in your soul—and this week’s episode is no exception. Carrie had the absolute honor of sitting down with Jovon Quarles—aka Q—a former Navy SEAL and the powerhouse host of FOX’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.
Q opens up about his journey—from growing up in an incredibly tough environment with a mother battling addiction and no father figure, to becoming a Navy SEAL and stepping into the spotlight on national TV. But what really struck Carrie is his heart. His story isn’t just about physical toughness—it’s about emotional grit, finding your “why,” and choosing to rise no matter what life throws your way.
We talk a lot in the DN community about how mindset matters more than macros—and Q’s story is the perfect example of that. But without a real reason—without your why—none of those plans will stick. This isn’t just a podcast about a Navy SEAL—it’s about being human. It’s about falling down, owning your story, and getting back up stronger.
