    Dyslexic. Failed Year 10 Three Times. Speaks 4 Languages. Built a Mental Health App. How?

    Nothing was enough.Not the deep sea. Not Saudi Arabia. Not the addiction. Not the depression. Not the moments that nearly broke him completely.Scott Soutter grew up hard in Mount Isa. Failed Year 10 three times. Dyslexic. Worked the toughest jobs on earth — boilermaker, commercial diver, deep sea salvage. Lived and worked in Saudi Arabia. Battled addiction and depression in the shadows where nobody could see it.Then rebuilt himself from the ground up.Today Scott speaks four languages, has completed two trades, written a book, and built a mental health app. Not because life got easier — but because he decided that nothing would be enough to keep him down.In this episode of the M26FIT Podcast, Magnus Olson sits down with Scott for one of the most raw, honest and genuinely extraordinary conversations we've ever had on this show.They go deep on:- Growing up in Mount Isa and what it forged in him- What working as a boilermaker taught him about hard work and survival- The psychological demands of deep sea and commercial diving- What led him to Saudi Arabia and what he encountered there- When addiction and depression nearly took everything — and what pulled him back- The turning point that forced him to rebuild his entire life- His journey into self-development, meditation and spiritual fitness- His book The Boy on a Log and the lessons inside it- What real resilience actually means after everything he's survived- Where true strength really comes from — the body, the mind, or something deeperThis is a conversation for every man who has ever felt lost, stuck, or written off.It's never too late. The worst chapters don't define you. And the most extraordinary lives are often built by the people the world counted out first.YES YOU CAN.Follow M26FIT:Instagram: @m26fitWebsite: m26fit.au

    The Australian Viking Who Lost Everything… Then Rebuilt Himself in the Arctic

    There’s a version of every man that gets built through comfort… and then there’s the version forged through pain.In this episode of the M26 Fit Podcast, Magnus sits down with Lex Riley, known as the Australian Viking, a former soldier who didn’t just face external battles… but internal ones that nearly broke him.Alcohol.Depression.PTSD.Loss of identity.What followed wasn’t a typical recovery story.Lex walked away from the noise of the modern world and into the harsh, unforgiving environment of the Arctic Circle, deep in Norway, where the cold strips everything back to truth. This is a conversation about what it really takes to rebuild a man.Not through comfort… But through solitude, discipline, and confronting what most people spend their lives avoiding.We explore the tension between the warrior and the peaceful leader, the role of nature in mental health, and why so many men lose themselves after leaving structured environments like the military.If you’ve ever questioned your path, your identity, or what you’re truly building… this episode will hit hard.Subscribe for more stories like this 👇The M26 Fit podcast is proudly hosted by Magnus Olson 🔥To find out more about M26 Fit https://linktr.ee/m26fit

    Special Forces Commando to Buddhist Monk: Redefining Strength Under Pressure with Paul Cale

    This man who has lived at both extremes of human experience, elite combat and deep spiritual discipline.Paul Cale is a former Australian Special Forces commando, a black belt across eight martial arts, and the architect of the Australian Army’s modern combatives system. He completed five combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, served as a team leader in Australia’s elite counter-terror unit, and has spent decades training soldiers, police, elite athletes, and civilians in close-quarters combat and decision-making under pressure.He also came to public attention after being labelled by media as “Australia’s deadliest soldier” following a life-and-death close-quarters incident in Afghanistan, a label he reflects on today with nuance, responsibility, and restraint.But this conversation goes far deeper than combat.For more than 40 years, Paul has studied Buddhism and is now on the path toward ordination as a Buddhist monk. In this episode, we explore how stillness, discipline, and spiritual practice reshaped his understanding of strength, control, aggression, and purpose.We discuss: • what Special Forces training really teaches about everyday pressure • why some men freeze under stress while others act with clarity • the difference between aggression and confidence • how to control anger without suppressing it • identity loss after intensity and how men rebuild without losing themselves • practical ways to cultivate calm, discipline, and restraint in daily lifeThis is not a conversation about violence.It’s a conversation about strength that is chosen, controlled, and sustained.If you’re a man navigating pressure, responsibility, identity, or the demands of a long career, this episode will challenge how you define strength and success.M26FIT Podcast, hosted by Magnus Olson.Subscribe for more conversations on strength, longevity, and sustainable performance.

    From the Edge of Jail to Saving Kids’ Lives, Turning At-Risk Boys into Better Men

    In this powerful and confronting conversation, I sit down with Brenden Wilkins, former footy player, strength coach, gym owner, and founder of Teens Take Control, one of the Sunshine Coast’s most impactful youth programs.Brenden grew up in western Sydney, surrounded by sport, pressure, and a social circle that pulled him dangerously close to a criminal underworld. Some of his mates went to jail. Some didn’t make it out alive. He admits he was one decision away from blowing up his own life.Everything changed when he found out he was going to be a father.That moment forced him to clean his life up and commit to becoming the kind of man his kids could look up to. Today, he uses the same discipline, toughness, and physical training that saved him to help disengaged and at-risk teenage boys build self-worth, respect, structure, and purpose.Through Core Strength Fitness and Teens Take Control, Brenden works with young men who are written off by schools, already in youth justice, or heading there fast. His approach is unapologetically old-school, hard physical training, clear rules, consequences, respect for women, responsibility, and contribution to community.In this episode, we talk about nearly going off the rails, losing mates to crime, the fine line between tough love and compassion, why physical suffering under load opens kids up emotionally, what modern boys are being lied to about masculinity, and what actually works if we’re serious about reducing youth crime.This is not theory. This is lived experience, hard conversations, and real outcomes.Subscribe for more conversations on physical, mental, and spiritual fitness.The M26FIT Podcast is proudly hosted by Magnus Olson.Find out more about M26FIT here: https://linktr.ee/m26fit

    When The Mission Ends, Who Are You Then? Lessons From Former Special Forces Commando

    In this episode of the M26FIT Podcast, host Magnus Olson sits down with Tim Webb, a former Special Forces Commando and SASR operator, a man who has spent years operating in environments where pressure is relentless, decisions are immediate, and the consequences are real.Tim’s story is not told through war stories or bravado. It’s told through experience, responsibility, and the quiet discipline forged under extreme conditions. From the brutal realities of SAS selection to high-risk deployments, Tim shares what it truly takes to perform when your mind, body, and spirit are pushed to their absolute limits.After leaving the military, Tim faced the challenge many elite operators know too well, the loss of identity, the absence of brotherhood, and the need to redefine purpose in civilian life. He transitioned into high-risk medical roles as an Advanced Care Paramedic, operating offshore in extreme environments, and later founded Soter International, a charity dedicated to teaching tactical medicine and pre-hospital care where seconds matter and lives are on the line.This conversation goes deep into what separates elite performers from the rest.How Special Forces operators think under pressureFear, courage, and whether courage can be taughtIdentity loss and rebuilding life after servicePTSD, transition, and mental resilienceDecision-making systems in high-stakes environmentsWhy spirit must lead mind, and mind must lead bodyThe lessons every man can apply to life, business, and leadershipThis episode is not about combat.It’s about character.It’s about alignment.It’s about becoming the man who can hold steady when life gets heavy.If you are interested in performance, discipline, resilience, and living with purpose, this conversation will challenge the way you think about strength.Welcome to the M26FIT Movement 💪Subscribe 👇
