Willink co-author of Extreme Ownership and The Dichotomy of Leadership is the co-founder of the leadership consulting firm Echelon Front. He hosts the hugely popular Jocko Podcast and is viewed as someone who not just talks leadership but has lead teams in the most hostile and volatile environment...war.

  • Did Jocko tell himself a story that held him back in your own life?
  • Detach emotionally. Does that sometimes cause friction in your relationship with his wife or kids?
  • How far back can Jocko remember having a desire to take on the hardest thing?
  • Jocko's Dad never let him quit at anything. Jocko explains the influence his Dad had on him.
  • What would his kids say about their Dad?
  • "There is no growth in the comfort zone" Does Jocko openly seek out discomfort? 
  • So many who serve their country return to civilian life and fall into darkness. What's the critical ingredient that shows them the light?
  • To Jocko's teammates who died in combat, in a quiet moment, what does he say to them?
  • The "Discipline Equals Freedom" mantra, what is the dichotomy in that simple statement?​

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
