The Modern Mind Fergus Crawley

In this episode, Fergus is joined by Robin Horsfall, former SAS soldier, bodyguard and author. 


Robin has certainly lived an extraordinary life. He joined the military at 15 and then served in 2 Para in Northern Ireland. After multiple tours of Northern Ireland, he eventually joined the SAS and was part of one of the most famous hostage rescue missions in history - The Iranian Embassy Siege in 1980. After leaving the military, Robin went onto bodyguard for some of the wealthiest people in the world, start his own Karate school and gain an English Literature degree from the University of Surrey. 


Robin shares his early childhood and what lead him to the military, his deployments with the Parachute Regiment, his time in the SAS, how he adapted to life outside of the military, many of the valuable lessons he has learned along the way, and much much more… 


Expect to reflect on how you deal with failure and discomfort. 


Expect to learn how to deal with high pressured situations. 


Expect to better understand the challenges of military life.
