SETEMA GALI JR

Co-Owner, Director of “Strong and Courageous Youth Development Program”

Setema Gali is a global keynote speaker, trainer, best-selling author, NFL Super Bowl Champion, and Results Coach. He teaches his clients to create real, radical, and even “impossible” results across all 4 domains of life: Physical, Spiritual, Relational, and Financial. Setema is a former NFL football player who was blessed to be a part of the 2002 New England Patriots team and their victory in Super Bowl XXXVI. He has coached over 150 week long “immersion” events – sitting face-to-face with men and women from across the world, coaching and leading them to truly rise to fulfill their greatest calling. On top of being a well-revered public figure, he holds one-on-one coaching, hosts a public speaking boot camp, runs an elite mastermind group, and leverages the power of social media to further promote his word. Outside of business, Setema gives back to his community by working with the youth – whether that be through coaching sports, speaking at church camps, or volunteering to work with local school programs. He is passionate about providing quality education to not only his city but to his own sons and, soon, the nation.
