In this powerful episode of The Heart of the Bad Wolf, host Nicholas James Muscarella sits down with UFC veteran and two-time Ultimate Fighter winner Jesse Taylor for one of his most honest conversations to date.

Jesse opens up about incarceration, addiction, sobriety, and the judge who he believes saved his life. Fresh out of jail and currently in a rehab program, he reflects on substance abuse, self-sabotage, faith, and the mental battles that followed the highs of his fighting career. He discusses how wrestling and MMA once gave him purpose, how losing that outlet led him down a destructive path, and why having goals is essential for survival.

The conversation dives deep into fatherhood, relationships, isolation, worthiness of love, and Jesse’s desire to rebuild his life spiritually, mentally, and professionally. This episode is a raw look at redemption, accountability, and what it truly takes to come back from rock bottom.
