Ep. 74 Eddie Penney: A US Navy SEAL’s Secret to Being Unafraid

Eddie Penney spent over 20 years serving his country, first as a US Marine, then as a Navy SEAL. As a SEAL, Eddie was assigned to the highly elite Naval Special Warfare Development Group (DEVGRU) and was at the forefront of numerous life-threatening missions. His job as a breacher meant he was always the “first guy in the room” in an operation. But despite the incredible odds he overcame as a SEAL, he says his scariest challenge was suddenly having to take on the role of a single dad to his 3 young children.
