E47: Dean Stott: From Special Forces to World Records

from The Growth Kit · host Brian Comly

Today‘s guest is someone I was really looking forward to talking to: Dean Stott. Dean is a former British Special Forces soldier who served in the Special Boat Service (also known as the SBS). After a career-ending parachuting accident, he transitioned to the private sector. He became renowned for handling high-risk situations such as when he evacuated the Canadian Embassy in Libya. He later set two world records for traveling the longest road in the world on a bike, the 14,000 mile Pan American highway with basically no cycling experience. Dean is now a motivational speaker, podcaster, adventurer, and dad. He was also awarded the distinguished honor of the MBE, the Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire,  for his services in sport, humanitarian, and mental health. This interview was incredible and I could have just listened to his stories for hours. He’s a great story teller with a humble demeanor and his feats are nothing short of incerdible. As always, please leave a review and share this with a friend who you think might also benefit. Thanks and enjoy.
