Flying High: Overcoming Fear and Pushing Limits with Sarah Furness

Blighty Talks Bricks by Steve Blight

Episode notes

This week, we sit down with an extraordinary guest, Sarah Furness. A former RAF helicopter pilot, combat and operational commander, best-selling author, mindfulness coach, and mother, Sarah spent over 20 years flying into war zones and mastering resilience under extreme pressure. In this episode, she shares her journey as a female pilot in the RAF, the challenges she faced in training—including how the length of her arms almost ended her career before it began—and how she learned to overcome fear and push past limits. Now a mindfulness coach, Sarah explains how she transitioned from military life to helping others build mental resilience. Her story is inspiring, eye-opening, and filled with valuable lessons on courage, determination, and self-mastery.
