  • David Charbonnet – Failure, Faith & the Fight to Keep Going | Mindset #93
    Nov 12 2025

    In this episode, David Charbonnet returns to Mindset Lessons from the Field with a story that pushes the limits of grit, faith, and teamwork. After a parachuting accident left him paralyzed, David rebuilt his life and purpose. But when he and fellow SEAL Chad Wright set out to conquer the world’s toughest kayak race—the Yukon 1000—nature had other plans.

    From battling freezing waves and sleep deprivation to facing the sting of failure, David opens up about what happens when your best effort still isn’t enough—and why that’s exactly where growth begins.

    He shares hard-earned lessons on leadership, trust, and why the goal isn’t to avoid pain but to find meaning through it. This episode is raw, humbling, and a reminder that even when life knocks you down, you can still choose to paddle forward.

    🎧 Listen if you’ve ever failed, fallen short, or needed a reason to get back up again.
