About this episode

Mark Divine was a competitive athlete, martial artist and led elite teams during a 20-year career as a Navy SEAL officer, retiring as Commander in 2011. His leadership of teams was so effective the government tasked him with creating a nationwide mentoring program for SEAL trainees. Through Mark’s teaching, entrepreneurial endeavors, and travel to foreign countries, he noticed the power of mental toughness, emotional resilience, intuitive leadership, and a healthy spirit for anyone wanting breakthrough performance. They weren’t solely for combat or restricted to the business world or one culture. He wrote and self-published his first book, Unbeatable Mind, in 2011 and launched its at-home study program, followed by The Way of the SEAL, and 8 Weeks to SEALFIT and KOKORO Yoga.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Anybody can achieve Navy SEAL level mental toughness
  • How to become unbeatable...at anything
  • Will meditation really improve your performance?
  • How to lead from a place of non-violence and compassion
