17. Ollie Ollerton: SAS – Who Dares Becomes An Entrepreneur

Ollie Ollerton is not your typical entrepreneur. A former UK Special Forces soldier, he is best known for his starring role on Channel 4's SAS: Who Dares Wins. Ollie has led an incredible life, and fellow entrepreneurs can learn a lot from his drive and determination. In this episode, he talks us through being attacked by a chimpanzee as a child, hitting rock bottom in Australia, and getting his life back on track via an ayahuasca-fuelled trip to the spirit world. Ollie parted company with SAS: Who Dares Wins last year and is now focused on building up his business, Break-Point. 'Can I ask you a personal question?' is a podcast that brings you in-depth interviews with some of Britain's best-known entrepreneurs and leaders in under 30 minutes. Our previous interviewees include Charlie Mullins, Peter Hargreaves, Gina Miller, Spencer Matthews and Martha Lane-Fox.
