In this episode, Chris Gabardi and Jess Thuring sit down with Antarctic expedition leader, bestselling author, and international keynote speaker Rachael Robertson to explore what leadership really demands when you’re isolated, under pressure, and unable to step away.

From the legendary “Bacon Wars” to powerful lessons on respect, boundaries, and team dynamics, Rachael shares the real stories and raw insights she gained in Antarctica, the most unforgiving (and unforgettable) leadership classroom on Earth.
