I am SO excited about this week’s guest and how wild that it coincides with the very weekend I landed in Antarctica exactly a year ago! I still can’t believe that actually happened but how amazing to relive it all in this episode.




I’m PUMPED to have David Knoff with us this week, you’ll be able to hear in my voice how fascinating I found his pathYAY not only in his Antarctic journey but all the crazy dots that connected to get him there. Think a career as an officer in the Army commanding a whole platoon with the Regional Assistance Mission Solomon Islands turned diplomat at the Australian High Commission in Pakistan which then became Frist Secretary at the Australian Embassy in Iraq with a side of professional photography in Turkey, medals for formation skydiving in Dubai and even splitboarding records – a hybrid snowboard that can be separated into cross country skis for ascent…



And that’s all before he became an Antarctic Station leader at Davis Station which is not only already a uniquely intense and challenging role to fill let alone when you get STUCK THERE DURING AN UNPRECEDENT PANDEMIC for 537 days!!! You can only imagine how interesting THAT story is such that he has written it into an incredible book with more exciting projects on the horizon. I’ll let him tell you more about it himself but I hope you find it as captivating and invigorating as I did!!
