The Freedom Project

Ask any Royal Marines recruit what the worst part of training is… and you’ll probably get the same answer. It’s brutal. It requires insane willpower. And it breaks a lot of men. But those who push through? They become better Marines—and better men. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: The hardest test in Royal Marines training (and why it makes everything else easier). How your brain literally rewires itself when you do difficult things. Why avoiding discomfort makes life harder—and how to reverse that. If you’re ready to build unshakable mental toughness, this episode is for you.

Can who you are completely change? History proves that it can. Take Cynthia Ann Parker, a girl kidnapped by the Comanches at 9 years old. Raised among them, she became Comanche herself—so much so that when she was rescued 24 years later, she was devastated. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I explore: How identity isn’t fixed—it’s shaped by your environment. Why the people, habits, and ideas around you are rewiring your brain. How to deliberately shape yourself into the person you want to become. If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, this episode will show you how to break free.

I watched a family fall apart in real-time. For two hours, a couple sat at dinner, glued to their phones—completely ignoring their teenage son, who was just waiting to be seen. It was heartbreaking. But here’s the thing: we’re all guilty of this in some way. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I share: The silent tragedy of distraction and how it’s stealing life from us. Why the most important moments of our lives often feel unimportant. How to actually be present before it’s too late. Because if you don’t stop and pay attention to this moment—one day, you’ll wake up and realise you missed everything that mattered.
