Taylor Cavanough was living the dream. A Navy SEAL. Deployed overseas. High performer. But behind the discipline… was chaos. After a violent arrest where he was tased and attacked by a police K9, everything collapsed. His career. His identity. His future. What started as alcohol and Adderall turned into Percocet… then fentanyl. He lost control of his life. In this episode, Taylor shares: The moment everything fell apart after his arrest Getting kicked out of the SEAL Teams How one decision led him down the path of addiction The reality of fentanyl dependency and withdrawal Hitting rock bottom alone in Hawaii And how he rebuilt his life for his daughter This is a story about self-sabotage, identity, and redemption.
