What does it take to keep moving when you are alone in the frozen Yukon, temperatures fall to minus 55°C, most competitors have dropped out, and you still have hundreds of miles ahead?

Neil Thubron is an executive coach, leadership and sales trainer, author, keynote speaker, former IBM sales leader, British Army Reserve veteran, sailor, and extreme endurance athlete.

In this episode of Raw Minds, Neil takes us inside the brutal 300-mile Yukon Arctic Ultra. Only six competitors made it through the first freezing night. Neil explains how he managed frozen clothing, exhaustion, isolation, dangerous temperatures, and the mental battle that began when the excitement disappeared and survival became the priority.

During that race, Neil developed the foundation for his 7P Formula for Success and his book, Yucan: Achieve Any Big Goal Using the 7P Formula for Success.

Neil also opens up about being adopted as a baby, becoming one of IBM’s youngest managers, training as an officer at Sandhurst, crossing the Sahara Desert, sailing from Australia to China, and coaching leaders through pressure, anxiety, and major life challenges.

Erick and Neil discuss purpose, grief, victim mentality, personal responsibility, morning routines, discipline, leadership, and why focusing on what you can control can change your life.

This conversation is about more than extreme racing. It is about becoming the person who keeps going when the pain starts, doubt gets louder, and nobody is watching.
