325) Grant Flynn - SAS Victory, Adult ADHD & Mental Resilience
Today’s conversation is with Grant Flynn.
Grant is the co-founder of Social Fit World, winner of SAS: Who Dares Wins Season 8 in 2023, and previously a competitor on BBC’s Ultimate Hell Week. Away from TV, he’s also known as the “Ninja Binman” and has built a reputation for resilience, energy, and pushing himself into the toughest environments.
In this conversation, we dive into Grant’s unconventional journey from training as a professional dancer to spending nearly a decade running hotel activity camps in Greece, to later becoming a binman and testing himself in some of the most brutal challenges on TV.
Expect to learn:
- What shaped Grant’s resilience and mental toughness
- The rock-bottom moment that led to a breakdown and how he rebuilt from it
- His adult ADHD diagnosis at 35 and how it changed his outlook
- Lessons from his year of sobriety and relationship with alcohol
- Behind the scenes of SAS: Who Dares Wins including lowest moments, leadership lessons, the importance of teamwork, and surviving interrogation
- Why he embraces suffering and hard exercise as a choice
This is a raw and inspiring discussion on resilience, mental health, and the pursuit of growth and exploration.
