Brendon Prince | Breaking Records, Saving Lives: A 2,500 Mile Mission
In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, we are joined by Brendon Prince as he shares his journey as the first person to stand-up paddleboard around mainland Britain, breaking five world records in the process. Driven by his mission to prevent accidental drownings, Brendon explains how this ambitious challenge was designed to raise awareness for water safety.
Brendon opens up about the fears and mental strain of the journey, from navigating dangerous headlands to losing his paddle far from shore. Brendon reveals how preparation, positivity, and breaking the challenge into manageable mental steps helped him stay focused on his goal. He also reflects on the concept of resilience itself, arguing that good preparation minimises the need for it, while poor planning forces reliance on it.
Finally, Brendon shares humbling moments, such as his “orca moment,” that cut through ego and offered a fresh perspective on life’s challenges. His story highlights the power of consistency, showing how even small, steady steps can lead to extraordinary achievements.
