What if one question could pull you out of the pit and into your purpose? In this episode of the Raw Tallant Podcast, Dave Tallant shares how a single question from his coach, asked during the darkest season of his life, unlocked clarity, connection, and personal transformation.
While walking through separation and emotional chaos, Dave was asked: “What do you want?”. That simple yet powerful question became the catalyst for a deep, intentional journey to rebuild his life.
Dave unpacks five key lessons that emerged from that moment: how thoughts shape your trajectory, why truth is the foundation of freedom, how clarity fuels momentum, why declarations matter, and the importance of anchoring yourself through faith, community, and coaching.
He also shares practical steps to assess your current position, define where you're headed, break limiting patterns, and speak your identity into reality.
Whether you're stuck, spinning, or searching for a path forward, this episode offers a clear roadmap to reclaim your life with purpose.

“It wasn’t therapy. It was clarity. It wasn’t pity. It was power.”
