In this episode of Return to Base, we welcome Alden Mills. Alden graduated from the United States Naval Academy and went on to serve as a Navy SEAL before leaving the military, inventing The Perfect Pushup, and authoring the bestselling books Be Unstoppable and Unstoppable Teams.
It was no accident that Alden learned the secrets to being unstoppable. From being the kid with two left feet, scoring goals on his own team in every ball sport imaginable, to rowing crew at the Naval Academy, Alden learned to achieve despite great adversity. Lucky enough to receive a billet into BUDs training out of college, Alden suffered through self-doubt, persistent cadre, and uniforms that literally ripped his skin from his thighs to become a Navy SEAL.
Upon leaving the service, Alden attended business school and became a successful entrepreneur and CEO of Perfect Fitness, the 2009 Inc. 500 fastest-growing consumer-product company.
Alden founded BeUnstoppable.com in 2021 to help people master the code to succeed at anything, and is a sought after keynote speaker.
