In today’s episode, Jordan sits down with Jay Morton, former Special Forces soldier, mountaineer, and endurance athlete. Jay opens up about his journey from growing up in a working-class town in Lancashire to serving in the military and later building a life around adventure, challenge, and resilience. He talks about the realities of life in the Special Forces, the struggle of identity after leaving, and how he managed to keep his civilian friendships and sense of self intact.
Jordan and Jay also discuss the lessons learned from leading expeditions on Everest, the importance of doing hard things for personal growth, and the mental battles that come with public speaking, endurance events, and redefining who you are after high-profile experiences like SAS: Who Dares Wins.
This conversation is about resilience, identity, and pushing beyond comfort zones. Jay’s story is a powerful reminder that strength isn’t only about physical toughness but also about adaptability, humility, and finding purpose in new chapters of life.
