I so enjoyed this chat with Billy BIllingham, who you might know from the TV show SAS Australia. 


We spoke while he was in hotel quarantine in Sydney ahead of his Australian tour, where he told me all about his tough upbringing in a UK council estate, running with gangs and joining the British armed Forces at 16… 





BIlly served for nearly 2 decades in the SAS. He was awarded the Queen’s commendation for bravery, jumped out of a lot of planes into war zones and then became a celebrity bodyguard to stars including Tom Cruise, Michael Caine and Brad and Angelina


In this episode we talk about how it’s never too late to turn your life around, how to get the confidence you need to step up to extraordinary missions like freeing hostages and why his life motto is ‘always a little further’. 


Annnnd did I mention Billy is doing a tour?? You can hear his stories LIVE. 

•            7th May – Sydney – City Recital Hall

•            9th May – Brisbane – The Tivoli

•            10th May – Melbourne – Athenaeum Theatre


His first novel ‘Call to Kill’ will be released May 13. 


So here’s the super fun BIlly Billingham… on Claiming His Confidence.
