Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Timestamps stay in sync with the live audio

Just because you're determined doesn't mean everything's gonna go well. Those four people that passed away, were they climbing with you? I've learned how to survive in some of the most hostile terrains on the planet. You really fascinate me for a number of reasons that I actually never knew before I started digging into your story. You certainly had a lot of demons. In the early days of TV especially, there was so much pressure to go and do that and do the extra episode. You end up burning the things that are most valuable. To be successful you have to sacrifice.

But maybe you reach one way and nothing up. Selection for the special forces is all about Heart and spirit. And we can all have that. That's not a God given talent. That's a muscle that builds with walking through the r the door of failure time and time again and keep getting back up. When was your darkest moment? One was when I when I broke my back and and was in rehabilitation for a long time and you know, so much of my rock in my life had been that I was physically strong and I was doing a job I loved and suddenly

couldn't even reach the bathroom without excruciating agony and it was just a what am I gonna do with my life. When is there a time to give up? So without further ado. I'm Stephen Bartlett, and this is the Dire CEO. I hope nobody's listening.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.
