Push Past Impossible Inspirational Keynote1 hour
I take my audiences on a journey with me. Through story telling and strong visuals, I illustrate just how limited and governed we all are, in every aspect of our lives, by believing in our own limitations. How we under achieve in our comfort zones and how each and everyone of us can push past impossible.
We’re all shaped and guided by ‘little impossibles’. Those things you’ve been telling yourself are not for you, are too much of a risk, things you might want to do but don’t because they’re hard, or too much effort or simply quite terrifying. Think about what yours could be and then challenge them. You learn nothing in your comfort zone. You’ll get by and you’ll deliver nice predictable results from that safe place, but you’ll learn nothing. Step outside, take a risk, prepare for it, work hard for it, and I promise you: you will learn something. It might not always be a happy lesson, but you will learn and you will use that learning to improve your life. On the other side, if you do succeed, you’ll realise, ‘I should have done this years ago!
Key Takeouts:
- Pure inspiration and motivation illustrated through story telling and incredible visuals
- Goal setting and dealing with curveballs
- The vital role of the perfect team
- Push past impossible and live extraordinarily in all aspects of your life
Performance Coaching Half-day Coaching4 hours
What is coaching?

Coaching is a meaningful way that managers and leaders can spark the best within individuals. And by enabling employees, the company as a whole can achieve its objectives. Coaching helps people to develop self-belief, self-motivation, choice, clarity, commitment, awareness, responsibility and a readiness to act. In short, it’s a process that unlocks potential and empowers others to reach the next level of performance for individual and group benefit.
Coaching provides a dedicated “thinking space” where delegates can develop insight, set goals, choose actions and be accountable in achieving these goals.
Performance Coaching is an offering that Ryan is uniquely positioned to conduct. As a double Guinness World Record holder, ultra-extreme adventure and ice water swimmer, he is also a businessman, running an advertising sales operation in Cape Town, and owns the Push Past Impossible Trademark.
Ryan shares a truly inspirational, eye-opening and entertaining story of endurance and resilience, followed by group coaching sessions that equip it’s delegates on how to channel life’s many curveballs effectively, and how to weather the most difficult of environments, in career and personally
Failing Forward Conversational Sessions2 hours
These sessions were created to accommodate smaller groups in an informal conversational format. We find a suitable venue, preferably next to some water (pool or ocean) and we talk about failure! The idea of only sharing our success stories means we miss out on the more valuable lessons we learn from our failures.
Ryan kicks things off with an epic tale of his attempt to become the first male to ever swim solo from Russia to the USA. This was one of his biggest and most useful life lessons, but also considered (by himself) as his greatest failure.
Being able to fall and get back up again, shows you have real grit and mental fortitude. We open the floor to the group to share their epic fails, with some friendly competition incorporated.
