In this episode of the Elite podcast, host Lee sits down with Lindsay Bruce, former SAS operator turned self-development and mindset coach. Lindsay shares his journey from struggling with self-esteem and dropping out of school to finding a sense of community and brotherhood in the Army. He discusses the importance of dismantling the 'emotional armor' built during military service to navigate the next phase of life. Exploring coaching primarily for men over 40, Lindsay emphasizes the need to reconnect with their true selves and rediscover purpose. The conversation delves into his experiences with psychedelics for self-discovery, the significance of being present, and balancing aggression with empathy. Lindsay's story is a compelling blend of personal struggle, professional achievement, and transformative growth.
