Description

This week we welcome Robert Swan, who is the first person to have walked to both the North and South Poles. His leadership and determination made his 900-mile journey to the South Pole the longest unassisted march in history. He was awarded the Polar Medal by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and is a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador for Youth.


Robert is a polar pioneer, a leader in energy innovation, and the founder of the 2041 Foundation. This story of unbelievable spirit will take you on a journey of inspiration, courage, and humility.
Robert committed to his dream at the age of 11, achieved it with a team after 22 years, and is now on a 50-year mission to help preserve Antarctica.
