  • Ep. 14 | Ollie Ollerton | Battle Ready: How to Take Control and Transform Your Life

    Wild, dangerous, miraculous: Former special forces soldier turned reality TV star Ollie Ollerton shares incredible journey of personal transformation on this week’s episode of the Thought Room with Hallie Rose.

    Ollie has an illustrious military career: joining the Royal Marines at 18 and later the Special Forces at age 24. He led a security team protecting ABC journalists in the wake of the Iraq war (wait until you hear his ambush story!), and spent time in Thailand spearheading a project rescuing children from slavery & sex trafficking. 

    Ollie is one of the star hosts on the TV show SAS: Who Dares Wins and has written two books: Break Point and Battle Ready (coming April 2020).

    From musicians to mathematicians, life coaches to psychonauts, PhDs to professional athletes—we'll invite them all to step into the Thought Room to spill their stories and share their most distilled wisdom. The show covers a breadth of topics including psychology, spirituality, sex & relationships, psychedelics, ayahuasca, non-violent communication, law of attraction, bio-hacking, fitness, nutrition, alternative health, personal development, business & entrepreneurship, mindfulness, yoga, and meditation.

    "The medicines have a way of changing one's perspective powerfully and profoundly." - Luke Storey

    Topics Explored:

    > Jamie's film 'Becoming Nobody', the creation process

    using Ram Dass teachings to build the film's soundtrack

    > Jamie's musical project recording master musicians from around the world, how that was turned into a film showcasing common people, authors, speakers, and influential thinkers from around the world

    > An AMAZING practical technique to welcome your feelings without attaching to them

    > Jamie Catto's 5 Unpretentiously Named Golden Keys of Alchemy

    1. If I had set up this experience as a training simulation and then forgotten about it, what was I trying to show myself?
    2. How is this a reminder for me to self care in a way that I've forgotten to or neglected to?
    3. Could this be an invitation for me to show up more, be more honest, visible, authentic in some way?
    4. Does this hurt more because of my painful past?
    5. Through all of this, what are the gifts I can share with others?

    > Varied masks, social roles, the authenticity behind the masks

    > Healing the male and female wound, Jamie's workshops, how to have the best sex ever

    > The endless possibilities of human connection through being our true authentic selves
