Creator/host of the Cleared Hot podcast Andy Stumpf discusses mindset, mindfulness, violence, patience and more. Andy spent 17 years as a Navy SEAL before being medically retired. He is a recipient of the Purple Heart and five Bronze Stars. During his time in the SEAL Teams, he screened for and joined SEAL Team Six, the most elite counterterrorism unit in the military and served as an instructor at BUD/S. Andy is a former CrossFit box owner, B.A.S.E. jumper, archer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, father, husband and in 2015 set the world record for the farthest wingsuit flight with an 18+ mile flight.

I found Andy via Cleared Hot, which quickly became and remains one of my favorite podcasts. If you don’t already, I highly recommend subscribing. I’m grateful I had the chance to connect with Andy to talk about mindset, mindfulness, violence, dad life, McNuggets and much more.
