In this episode of When I Grow Up, Paul Glazby sits down with Sam, the youngest guest ever to appear on the podcast. At just 23, Sam has already packed more life experience than most, going from surf lifesaving champion and Australian triathlete to enlisting for the Australian Army’s Special Forces Direct Entry.
They chat about Sam’s incredible journey from his first job as a glass collector at the Surf Club to becoming a decorated surf lifesaver with countless rescues under his belt. He shares stories of 2 AM training sessions, gruelling Ironman competitions, and the adrenaline of saving lives on the Gold Coast beaches.
Now, Sam is setting his sights on the next big challenge: joining the Special Forces. Paul and Sam discuss the mental toughness required, sacrifices, and excitement (and nerves) of preparing for this next chapter.
Prepare for an inspiring story of grit, determination, and a fearless pursuit of big dreams.
