Steven is joined by Farren Morgan, a former soldier turned successful entrepreneur and athlete. Farren shares his unique journey, detailing his late entry into the army at 27, the challenges he faced, and how his military experience shaped his mindset and career.

The discussion delves into the evolving culture of the military, the importance of physical fitness, and the impact of social media on personal branding and business growth. Farren also opens up about his upcoming challenge of completing a 1,000-mile trek with a weighted backpack to raise funds for veterans, emphasising the significance of giving back to the community

Key Takeaways

• Building a strong social media presence has allowed for the expansion of a coaching business, reaching clients globally and promoting a healthy lifestyle.

BEST MOMENTS

"I believe that the Army has given me a better mindset... through the hardship, through physical training and all through the camaraderie."

"I think a lot of people got into the military that shouldn't necessarily be there... I don't think they should be leading guys into any kind of scenario."

"When I think about the army, you think about that slogan, be the best... it doesn't matter whether you get shot at, you go out there and do your thing."

"A high percentage... well over 75% of everything that you see online, someone's taking some kind of performance enhancing drug."

ABOUT THE HOST

The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn’t be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.

As a person who has made successes in life, and also made huge cock-ups, I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful, or at least start your pursuit. My ‘Study’ has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception of, successful people - and I know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.

My ‘Study’ coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well-rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
