The Man Who Laughs in the Face of Impossible!

In this episode, Joe De Sena sits down with one of the most unstoppable humans on the planet—a former Gurkha and UK Special Forces operator, Nims Purja, who walked away from a military pension to chase a dream the world called impossible.

 

Discover how he shattered mountaineering records, rescued stranded climbers on Everest, and turned purpose into power when no one believed in him. From brutal discipline to next-level mindset shifts, this is your blueprint for doing what others won’t—even when everything’s on the line.

 

If you’ve ever wanted to quit, play small, or wait for the “right time”—watch this first.
