Product Information

Whatever our screw-ups, it never hurts to take a look in the mirror and ask the question: How did I fuck that up?

Nothing could have prepared the world for that moment, but Jason was at least in peak mental and physical fitness for the challenges to come. I wrote a book for those feeling helpless leaving the military, as I felt the leaving process was more than a little lacking! If you show your team respect and listen to them then they’ll have respect for you, and it makes your life as a leader easier – you don’t have to scream and shout. It's cool to see him, with the help of a shrink, overcome his PTSD and then go on to success on television and even set a record with some buddies, rowing across the Atlantic.The 90s were a ‘reasonably quiet’ time for the Marines, but that quiet time made him realise it was the action of soldiering – ‘being like a kid running around in the dirt’ was what Jason enjoyed.

In the closing stages of the book the author briefly mentions the trans-Atlantic row that, as part of his recovery, he successfully completed with four other remarkable men.In 2019, Fox alongside Sean Johnson kayaked the length of the Yukon river [15] over 1,980 miles in Alaska. As an ex military who've been through some depression and anxiety I understand exactly what he is talking about, I resonated with him a lot.

The best way for you to look at this situation now, as hard as it is, is to see that you’re on a positive journey,’ I’ve explained. Recounting stories of the military operations and expeditions that have tested his own resolve, in Life Under Fire he shares the tools he's developed at the cutting edge of an elite military career and shows how you, too, can build the resilience and inner strength to overcome whatever challenges life puts in front of you.In April 2018, a team of ten adventurers, including Fox, embarked on an expedition to the North Pole. He is best known as the longest serving directing staff on the popular Channel 4 television series SAS: Who Dares Wins, and the presenter of the investigative documentary series Meet the Drug Lords: Inside the Real Narcos. I’ve heard of people whose successful businesses were ruined by a negative relationship with alcohol. I liked him already after watching SAS: Who Dares Wins, but now I like him and respect him even more.
