Unbreakable: From Childhood Trauma to Navy SEAL to Powerlifting Champion - Tommy Richardson’s Journey

Episode Summary:

What does it take to survive the unthinkable - and come out stronger than ever?

In this jaw-dropping episode, I sit down with Tommy Richardson - Navy SEAL veteran, Marine, elite resilience coach, and founder of Divine Savagery.

We talk about overcoming childhood bullying, surviving combat, enduring grueling Navy SEAL training (including Hell Week with a broken pelvis!), and his miraculous recovery from brain surgery that left doctors stunned.

Tommy opens up about:

• Childhood adversity: How brutal bullying and a strict household pushed him to the edge and the voice that saved his life.

• Military mindset: Lessons from combat zones across the globe, including how to lead, adapt, and build unshakable teams.

• A brotherhood forged in fire: How a life-long connection with the Luttrell twins - including Marcus Luttrell (yes, the Lone Survivor) - who likely helped open some door that tipped the scale in Tommy's favor for an atypical path from the Marines into the elite world of Navy SEALs.

• Resilience & faith: Why forging mental toughness requires both fire and purpose.

• Radical recovery: How he set a goal to go from lifting 5 lbs post-brain surgery to benching 500 lbs in under a year.

• Life after service: Turning battlefield lessons into boardroom strategies for leadership, wellness, and personal growth.

Tommy doesn’t just share stories - he delivers battle-tested strategies for anyone facing adversity, feeling stuck, or chasing an impossible goal.

If you’ve ever wondered how far grit, faith, and purpose can take you - this episode will show you.
