Critic reviews

"Readers will be drawn into the narrative and discover it’s not just another SEALs book but a manual for learning life's lessons and moving forward without regrets. " —Booklist

"Drownproof is a raw and honest look at the discipline and mindset required to overcome the challenges that confront us all. From the demanding world of special operations to high-stakes personal adventures to the world of business, this book shares hard-earned wisdom for navigating life’s toughest tests. With a focus on resilience, self-reliance, and leadership, Drownproof is an exploration of how to keep moving toward your goals, no matter the odds. " —Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Sky Mourning

"If the world went completely sideways from a zombie virus outbreak, and we had to put together a militia to save the human race, Andy Stumpf would be my top draft pick. Exceptional people that you can call friends are one of the most valuable resources in this life. They provide examples of how to conduct yourself in a way that you admire, and can aspire to. Their accomplishments fuel you with inspiration, and their thought process enhances your perspective. Andy is one of my favorite examples of this, and knowing him has made me a better man. I’m honored to be his friend." -Joe Rogan

Unlike the humble view that Andy has of himself, he never fails to deliver to his viewers and now listeners/readers. We need more Andys in this world.

Having watched various podcasts hosted or having being hosted with Andy Stumpf, he always comes across as an affable, likeable type, this audiobook gives a bit more of an insight into who is is outside the arena, an often hilarious and sometimes heartfelt look at what motivates him and by extension what could or should motivate you, lessons learned and shared with his trademark wit and sarcasm.
An engaging and interesting listen.
Looking forward to more.

Andy if you really are as genuine and self deprecating as you come across in your podcasts and this book, with the incredible list of achievements you have through your life, then when you are next in the UK, I want to buy you a pint. Thank you for all that you give back. I listened to talking about ‘keeping it small’ and focused a couple of years back at a particularly tough time in my life. Thank you, it helped me massively and it still does every day.
