About this episode

🚀 The ⁠FUTURE of SPACE⁠ (FoS) video podcast, hosted by Daniel Fox, is a candid and informal conversation between Fox and leaders, investors, innovators, educators, celebrities, movers and shakers, who are shaping the future of humankind into outer space and here on Earth. Just like how two friends would chat and philosophize together, with one thing missing, a glass of wine! 🚀

Our guest today is Sean Swarner. After surviving two terminal cancers, being given 14 days to live, and emerging from a year-long coma, Sean went on to climb Everest, all of the seven continent's peaks, including in Antarctica, skied to both Poles and completed the Hawaii Ironman World Championship, all of those, believe it or not, with only one lung. Sean is the founder of The Cancer Climber Association and author of "BECOMING UNSTOPABLE: Conquering Your Everest".
