LAS VEGAS — Setema Gali is a former BYU all-conference defensive end and Super Bowl champion.
He had it all ... or so he thought.
"This was my first time with real, significant money," Gali said, "and I'm like, 'I've arrived. OK God, I'm ready.' And I'm sure he was like, 'You're about to get ready.'"
He lost it all in 2008. Now 16 years later, he's climbed his way back from dark places and depression, and now he's helping others navigate life and difficult challenges.
"I just believe that all things are possible, and I'm going to make a difference wherever I go," Gali said.
Gali talks about his new life as a life coach and how he got to where he is today in the video above.
