On this this episode we have the honour of interviewing former US Navy Rescue Swimmer, Mountaineer, Explorer and Motivational Speaker, Brian Dickinson. In 2011, Brian undertook a mission to complete the 7 summit challenge, which is attaining the summit of the highest peaks on each of the 7 continents. Brian kindly gives us an insight into the adversity he faced and overcame when summitting Everest and succumbing to Snow Blindness at the very peak.

Adversity comes in all shapes and sizes. As Polar Explorer - Erling Kagge pointed out on the previous Priory episode, adversity is relative to the person at the centre of it all. Whether, like Erling or 100 years before him with the Shackleton exloration mission to the South Pole, or like our special guest today Brian Dickinson, who faced his own adversity at the highest point on planet Earth, it is all realtive.

We hope this episode inspires you to overcome adversity in however it manifests itself in your own life.
