He's someone that should be respected for what they have accomplished in their life and looked as a role model and inspiration to us for becoming better and hitting that Next Level in our life.After serving his country, Jay exploded onto our screens as the mole in a series of the popular TV show 'SAS: Who Dares Wins'. He became a standout feature on the show and as his amazing past accomplishments and experiences came to light, along with his drive for continual evolution and challenging himself, I knew I had to feature him on the show to learn more about him and how we can become more like him. 

In this interview, we discuss his story, his time in the SAS, military life, the need to challenge yourself, his TV career, the creation of Thrudark, how to overcome fear, and how to use special forces philosophies and training protocols to better your own performance.
