In this episode of The Resilient Show, Chad Robichaux is joined by Former United States Navy SEAL & French Foreign Legionnaire, Taylor Cavanaugh.

Taylor Cavanaugh's journey is unlike any you've heard before, one marked by failure, redemption, and the relentless pursuit of purpose.

Taylor opens up about his troubled youth, addiction, time in jail, and how he defied all odds to become a Navy SEAL and later a Legionnaire. Chad & Taylor talk about near-death moments, the dangers of misplaced identity, and the power of faith, discipline, and second chances.

Taylor Cavanaugh is a former Navy SEAL from SEAL Team Seven and the only known Navy SEAL to also serve in the French Foreign Legion. After a turbulent journey marked by addiction, jail time, and personal failure, he turned his life around through discipline, faith, and service. As a SEAL sniper and JTAC with deployments to the Middle East and later as a Legionnaire operating in South America and Eastern Europe, Taylor’s story is one of redemption, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of purpose.
