Hi, I’m Colin

SPEAKING CLIENTS
Over the years, I’ve been blessed to share my story around the world - from The Today Show to The Tonight Show, from The Joe Rogan Experience podcast to HBO Real Sports with Bryant Gumble, from producing a documentary with Discovery to gracing the cover of Outside Magazine, from the New York Times to Forbes.
When organizations aim to surpass their performance thresholds, master resilience, and inspire innovation, they turn to me.
Globally acclaimed keynote speaker, peak performance expert, and New York Times bestselling author of titles such as The Impossible First and The 12-Hour Walk, Colin transforms the principles of resilience and perseverance into actionable strategies for achieving professional and personal excellence.

Beyond Limits.

My keynotes are not just about the physical endurance required to cross Antartica alone or climb Mt. Everest...
...but, instead, are about the mental fortitude required 
to face any challenge, personal or professional. I share strategies for surpassing perceived limitations, achieving peak performance, and unlocking your potential. It's about showing that with the right 
mindset, there are no limits to what we can achieve.
