#003 - Norman Beech - Rowing Across The Atlantic

My guest today is Norman Beech, an accomplished adventurer, author, speaker, and a dedicated family man. The bulk of our conversation centers around Norman and his son James's expedition across the Atlantic in 2010.

Norman and I also discuss a wide array of topics such as the intricacies of planning and executing significant adventures, the importance of risk management and safety, the benefits of outdoor activities for personal growth, and the power of overcoming obstacles. We delve into how these experiences shape character, foster resilience, and create lasting bonds.

Please enjoy my conversation with Norman Beech.
