  • Summary

  • Gary welcomes Scott Shawyer, a 52-year-old sailing pioneer and adventurer preparing for one of the most grueling challenges in all of sailing - the 3,600-mile New York Vendee solo transatlantic race from New York City to France. What makes Scott's incredible journey from former CEO of an industrial engineering company to ocean racer truly unique is that he discovered his passion for offshore racing just a few years ago, with his ultimate goal being to become the first Canadian to complete the legendary non-stop, unassisted, solo circumnavigation Vendee Globe in 2028 at age 56, raising awareness about preserving our watersheds along the way. Tune in as Gary and this late-blooming adventurer discuss the paradoxes of pursuing your passions later in life, pushing beyond perceived limits, and redefining success on your own daring terms in a conversation that embodies Gary's philosophy - that true success means letting go of conventional definitions and embarking on a lifestyle of growth and adventure.
