270. Live At Your Limit with Dean Stott, MBE (British special forces) ⚔️🇬🇧
Saison 1 · Épisode 270
mardi 10 février 2026 • Durée 01:31:34
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." — Edmund Burke
Dean Stott served in one of the world’s most elite special forces units, the British SBS (Special Boat Service).
In a 16-year military career, Dean deployed to the planet’s most hostile environments, tackled counter-terrorism operations, and lived the unrelenting pursuit of excellence.
In 2011, a parachuting accident ended his military career, but Dean didn’t slow down. He became a world-leading security consultant, protecting presidents, royal families, and governments—even evacuating the Canadian Embassy in Libya in 2014 and rescuing over 200 people from Israel in 2023.
Then, with barely 20 miles of cycling experience, Dean set out to break two world records by biking the 14,000-mile Pan American Highway from Argentina to Alaska in under 100 days. He did it—raising over $1.4 million for mental health charities along the way.
In 2024, Dean was awarded the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire).
Dean now hosts Netflix’s Toughest Forces on Earth and SAS Australia, while inspiring global audiences as a sought-after speaker.
In this episode:
How to set—and achieve—goals beyond your wildest imagination.
The best lessons from the world’s preeminent special forces units.
How to build unbreakable resilience when everything goes wrong.

170. Dare to Dream with Marianne Williamson (2024 US Presidential candidate and 4x #1 NY Times bestselling author) 🇺🇸
Saison 1 · Épisode 170
mercredi 24 janvier 2024 • Durée 43:32
“Nothing will work unless you do.” – Maya Angelou
Today, we’re sitting down with one of the great spiritual leaders of all time, Marianne Williamson, who is also running for President of the United States in 2024.
Marianne is the author of 15 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers, and she has been the catalyst for some of today’s great change-makers to transform the world.
Throughout her career, Marianne has worked on poverty, anti-hunger and racial reconciliation issues. She is the founder of Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that has delivered more than 16 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients since 1989.
Becoming President of the United States is about as lofty as a goal gets, but she’s spent her 30+ year career preparing for this moment.
The pillars of her Presidential campaign are:
The restoration of America’s middle class, including universal healthcare, tuition free college and tech school, and a guaranteed living wage;
The establishment of a Department of Peace and the Department of Children and Youth;
The declaration of a Climate Emergency to mass mobilize for the development of a green energy grid; and
Ending America’s Drug War.
Marianne believes the transformation of American society requires that we address the root causes of the problems, rather than just their symptoms – a focus that every country in the world should get behind.
She’s running for the Democratic nomination. If elected, Marianne will be the first female, the first mother, and the first grandmother to be President of the United States.
