🎙️ Never Quit Trying: Lessons in Resilience
What does it really mean to never quit when life keeps testing you?
In this episode of The Approach Podcast, host Cassidy Gates is joined by Jay Setchell, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, serial entrepreneur, inventor, mentor, and multi-time near-death survivor, along with Christopher LaBonte, entrepreneur and student of plant medicine and Indigenous teachings.
Together, they explore resilience—not as blind persistence, but as discipline, purpose, adaptability, and the courage to keep moving forward through life's greatest challenges.
Topics include: • Resilience through adversity • Hope vs. faith • Leadership under pressure • Lessons from military service and entrepreneurship • Trauma, recovery, and personal growth • Mindset, purpose, and intentional action • Why it's always too soon to quit
Jay's life has been shaped by extraordinary challenges, including multiple near-death experiences, dozens of surgeries, and a lifelong commitment to helping others discover their own strength. Christopher brings a unique perspective through entrepreneurship, trauma work, and Indigenous teachings, creating a conversation that bridges resilience, mindset, and meaning.
If you've ever questioned whether you have what it takes to keep going, this episode is a reminder that resilience isn't about never falling—it's about choosing to rise again.
