The Identity Trick Elite Soldiers Use Under Pressure, with Jason Fox

What if the thing that makes you extraordinary isn’t something you’re born with, but something you choose?

In this episode, Jason Fox, former Special Forces operator, bestselling author, and host of SAS: Who Dares Wins, shares the habits that helped him move from feeling unremarkable to performing under extreme pressure. Not because he believed he was destined for greatness, but because he learned how to respond when it mattered most.

We explore what it means to stay calm in chaos, how to build resilience when life doesn’t go to plan, and the mindset shift that can turn self-doubt into strength.

Jason talks about identity, trauma, his daughter’s quiet courage, and the power of asking better questions in difficult moments. Questions like:

• What would the best version of me do right now?
• What if I’m more capable than I think?
• What would courage look like here?

This is a conversation about finding your footing when the world tilts, and discovering that the superpower you’re searching for might already be in you.
