Next Rung Radio
Welcome to Next Rung Radio Podcast, where each episode is a rung on the ladder to your highest self. Hosted by multi-hyphenate creator and seven-figure entrepreneur Ron Creech, this is more than just a podcast, it’s a raw, real, and radically honest journey into the principles that elevate mind, voice, and vision.
From starting with nothing but a dream and $20 in his pocket to building multiple thriving businesses, Ron brings you the mindset and tools that changed his life—and will change yours.
Sometimes it's just Ron, dropping unfiltered wisdom from the trenches. Other times, he's joined by some of the most powerful and unique voices in the world: artists, thought leaders, visionaries, and warriors of the climb - each sharing how they’ve applied the six principles of faith, imagination, intuition, will, memory, reasoning, and perception to reach their next rung.
This is the show for the bold thinkers, the resilient dreamers, relentless climbers and faith driven leaders. If you're ready to break through limiting beliefs, embrace the climb, and unlock your next level, you just found your tribe that helps you step into your power one rung at a time.

"Faith, Rodeo & Redemption" - Featuring Bullrider | Cancer Surviver | Songwriter Cayden Gillard
Welcome to the very first official episode of Next Rung Radio Podcast, where every rung on the ladder is another step toward purpose, power, and resilience. To kick off this journey, we’re joined by country artist and survivor Cayden Gillard — a man who embodies what it means to rise through adversity. From a leukemia diagnosis at just 14, to picking up a guitar in a hospital room, to chasing rodeo dreams, breaking bones, and eventually breaking through in the music industry — Cayden’s story is one of grit, grace, and God’s guiding hand. He’s opened for superstars, racked up millions of streams, and stood in the spotlight, but what truly sets him apart is how he continues to show up stronger, more grounded, and more faithful, one rung at a time.
This episode is about more than survival, it’s about transformation. Cayden’s testimony reminds us that challenges aren’t roadblocks, they’re stepping stones. Through faith, resilience, and a relentless will to keep climbing, he’s turned hardship into harmony and setbacks into setups for success. His journey proves that no matter where you’re starting from, there’s always another rung waiting — and with faith, you’ll find the strength to reach it.
