Jason Fox, commonly referred to as ‘Foxy’, is a testament to resilience, dedication and the human spirit. A former Special Forces Officer, his life’s journey – from being on the frontline of some of the most dangerous situations, including hostage rescue and counter-terrorism, to promoting understanding of mental health and PTSD – is both humbling and awe-inspiring. Having served in the armed forces for two decades, rising to the rank of Sergeant, Jason’s experiences shaped him physically and mentally. Joining the Royal Marines Commandos in 1992 and later the Special Boat Service in 2001, he found himself confronting situations that tested every fibre of his being. Yet, it wasn’t just the physical challenges but also the psychological battles, particularly with PTSD, that he bravely confronted and later shared with the world.
After leaving the Special Forces in 2012, Jason seamlessly transitioned into the television and film industry. His initial role was to guide production crews in environmentally challenging areas, drawing from his rich experiences in diverse terrains. However, he quickly transitioned to more prominent roles in front of the camera, becoming Directing Staff on Channel 4’s SAS: Who Dares Wins. Jason’s inclusion not only highlighted his expertise but also brought forward his ability to mentor and challenge individuals mentally and physically. His return to the Directing Staff of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2023 attests to his influential screen presence.
Jason’s foray into documentary filmmaking showcased another dimension of his storytelling. The Presenter of Meet The Drug Lords: Inside The Real Narcos in 2018 was critically acclaimed, with many viewers lauding its cinematography and deep insights. As an author, his Sunday Times Bestseller, Battle Scars, offered a vulnerable account of his battles with PTSD. His achievements post-military career, from rowing the Atlantic Ocean from East to West to kayaking the Yukon River, and launching initiatives like the Battle Ready App and the Jason Fox Wild Tales Podcast, mirror his relentless spirit.
In his motivational talks, he masterfully intertwines his real-world experiences with lessons on resilience, teamwork, and mental health. Numerous testimonials celebrate his candid style and natural charisma. Jason Fox, both a hero in battle and in advocating for mental health awareness, continues to inspire and motivate, leaving an indelible mark on everyone he encounters.
