From 9/11 to Iraq to surviving an IED blast — Noah Galloway’s story is one of resilience, sacrifice, and transformation. A Purple Heart–awarded veteran and double amputee, Noah lost his left leg above the knee and his left arm above the elbow during Operation Iraqi Freedom. In this episode of DEAD Talks, he opens up about facing death in combat, the grief of losing parts of himself, and how he rebuilt his life through perseverance and purpose.

Noah shares how his experiences in war shaped his outlook on life, mental health, and resilience. Today, he inspires others through his No Excuses Charitable Fund, advocacy for men’s mental health, and motivational speaking. His story is raw, powerful, and full of lessons on courage, survival, and finding meaning after devastating loss.

About DEAD Talks

  DEAD Talks with David Ferrugio approaches death differently. Each guest shares raw stories of grief, loss, or unique perspectives that challenge the “don’t talk about death” taboo. Grief doesn’t end—it evolves. After losing his father on September 11th at just 12 years old, David discovered the power of conversation. Through laughter, tears, and honest dialogue, DEAD Talks helps make it a little easier to talk about death, mourning, trauma, and the life that continues beyond it.
