Description

In this powerful episode, Jimmy sits down with former NFL linebacker and BYU standout Sae Tautu for one of the most vulnerable and insightful conversations we’ve had on the show. From playing in front of 65,000 fans to waking up to the realities of life after football, Sae opens up about the emotional toll of losing his lifelong dream, the struggle with identity, and how he rediscovered purpose through faith, family, and leadership.

The two dive deep into topics like navigating depression, masculinity, marriage, grief, and the power of accountability. Sae shares how losing close family members, facing financial hardship, and being a young father forced him to grow in ways he never expected. This isn’t just a story about football — it’s about the kind of transformation that happens when life forces you to level up.

If you’re a man navigating tough transitions, searching for meaning, or looking for inspiration to own your truth, this episode will hit home.
