Ollie Ollerton: The Truth About the SBS, Discipline & Reprogramming Your Mind

There’s something about Special Forces operators that fascinates us. Maybe it’s the sheer grit, the mental resilience, or the stories of extreme hardship that push the human body and mind to its limits. We picture them as warriors hardened by battle, unshaken in the face of danger. But what if the reality is something very different?

In this episode, I sat down once again with one of my most popular guests, Ollie Ollerton former Special Boat Service (SBS) soldier, TV personality, and all-around force of nature. And this time, he’s pulling back the curtain like never before.

We dive deep into what it really takes to serve in one of the world’s most elite military units but this isn’t your typical war story. Ollie gets brutally honest about the conflicts that aren’t fought on the battlefield but within ourselves.

We talk about the rigid discipline of military life how it can build resilience, but also how it can break a person if taken too far. He shares how his own rebellious streak often put him at odds with authority, and why true growth comes from learning to master your own mind, not just following orders.

But what might surprise you most is our conversation around spirituality. In a world that often dismisses the unseen, Ollie makes a compelling case for why science and spirituality should go hand in hand. He talks about the power of visualisation, the need to break free from societal conditioning, and why stepping outside of your own programming is the key to real success.

This isn’t just an episode about the SBS it’s an episode about life, resilience, and what it really means to take control of your own path.

Key Takeaways:

✔ Spirituality and science are more connected than we think. It’s not about blind faith, but understanding the mechanisms behind belief.

✔ Discipline is crucial but too much of it can be a prison. Learning balance is key.

✔ If you have a rebellious nature, the military might not be for you. But personal growth is always possible if you shift your mindset.

✔ Your thoughts create your reality. Visualisation and self-mastery are powerful tools for transformation.

✔ We are all programmed by society. The real challenge is learning how to rewrite your own script.

This is Ollie Ollerton, unfiltered, raw, and real and trust me this conversation will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about discipline, resilience, and what it means to be truly free.
