The Turner Cavender Experience

Most men are really good at saying, "I've got it."

Business. Marriage. Money. Stress. Faith. Life.

But strength doesn't mean carrying everything alone.

In this solo episode of The Turner Cavender Experience, Turner talks about why men need other men — not just buddies, but men who will pray with you, challenge you, encourage you, hold you accountable, and tell you the truth when you need to hear it.

Turner shares why he intentionally built what he calls his Band of Men, how becoming a husband and soon-to-be father has changed the way he thinks about brotherhood, and what Scripture says about accountability, wisdom, friendship, and carrying each other's burdens.

This episode explores:

• Why men often isolate when life gets difficult • The difference between friends and true accountability • Why "iron sharpens iron" requires honesty and friction • The importance of surrounding yourself with wise men • Aaron and Hur holding up Moses' arms when he became tired • Why asking for help is not weakness • How to begin building your own Band of Men

Scripture discussed includes:

Proverbs 27:17, Ecclesiastes 4:9–12, Proverbs 13:20, Galatians 6:2, James 5:16, Exodus 17:8–13, Hebrews 10:24–25, and Mark 6:7.

The question is simple:

Who in your life has permission to tell you when you're wrong?

Find your iron — and become iron for somebody else.

In this episode of The Turner Cavender Experience, I sit down with my longtime friend Troy Crosson for a conversation rooted in faith, friendship, business, personal growth, and the experiences that shape who we become.

Troy shares his testimony, the role faith has played throughout his life, and some of the lessons he's learned through both success and adversity. We also talk about our long-standing friendship, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people, and what it means to pursue a life that makes an impact beyond yourself.

This isn't a polished highlight reel. It's a real conversation between two friends about faith, purpose, relationships, growth, and the things that matter most.

In this episode: • Troy Crosson's testimony and faith journey • The value of long-standing friendship • Business, growth, and lessons learned along the way • Surrounding yourself with people who challenge you to grow • Finding purpose beyond success • Making a positive impact on the people around you

Troy's wife, Penny Crosson, shared a few additional resources for anyone who wants to hear more of Troy's testimony. Troy shares his story in greater detail on video, including the life-changing explosion and the role faith has played throughout his journey.

Troy's explosion story is also featured in Step 11 of Penny Crosson's book. Her book is available as a free download on her website for anyone who would like to read more about their story, faith, and journey together.

The Turner Cavender Experience Real conversations. Real people. A bigger purpose.

I'm about to become a dad.

And as excited as I am to meet my son Van, becoming a father has also made me think deeply about my own childhood, the kind of father I want to be, and the kind of man I want my son to grow up watching.

In Episode 3 of The Turner Cavender Experience, I talk about my relationship with fatherhood growing up, the incredible strength of my mom, the example my stepfather gave me, and some of the fears I've had as I prepare to become a dad myself.

I also talk about the things I hope to give Van that have nothing to do with money or possessions: faith, integrity, work ethic, adventure, kindness, experiences, and knowing that his dad will always show up for him.

This isn't an episode about me telling anyone how to be a father. I haven't even become one yet.

It's a snapshot of who I am right now—before I meet my son—and the man I hope to become for him.

At the end of the episode, I speak directly to Van about what I hope he learns from me and what I promise to work toward as his dad.

Starting over sounds inspiring… until you're the one actually having to do it.

In Episode 2 of The Turner Cavender Experience, I'm talking about what it really felt like to walk away from businesses I spent years building, lose a huge part of my identity, and figure out who I was when the thing I had poured my life into was suddenly gone.

For years, I thought success meant building more, growing more, carrying more, and proving more. But when your identity becomes wrapped up in what you've built, losing the business can feel a lot like losing yourself.

In this episode, I talk about the financial pressure, the mistakes, the lessons, asking my wife for help when things got tight, and what starting over taught me about business, identity, resilience, faith, and rebuilding.

Starting over doesn't erase everything you built.

You take the discipline. You take the failures. You take the relationships. You take the lessons. And you build again — hopefully from a wiser place.

If you're in a season of rebuilding your business, career, health, relationships, or life, this episode is for you.

Episode 1 of The Turner Cavender Experience starts at the beginning.

I'm Turner Cavender, and I think it's time to reintroduce myself.

In this episode, I share the experiences that shaped who I am today—from growing up with hearing loss and racing motocross, to building businesses, owning gyms, losing an identity I had spent years creating, starting over in real estate, strengthening my faith, becoming a husband, and preparing to become a dad.

Some of the greatest lessons in my life came from the wins. A lot more came from the failures, mistakes, hard seasons, and moments when I had to figure out how to get back up.

That's what The Turner Cavender Experience is about.

Some episodes will be my stories. Others will be conversations with guests about business, family, faith, adventure, success, failure, and the experiences that changed their lives.

Because everybody has lived something somebody else can learn from.

If one story, one mistake, or one conversation helps you take one good step forward, this show is doing exactly what I created it to do.
