In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, I sit down with Trevor Fortner — a former U.S. Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal specialist and lead trainer for the UAE Presidential Guard, now working alongside Andrew Bustamante at Everyday Spy.

We dive into what it really means to think clearly under pressure. Trevor shares stories from his time in the field, operating in high-stakes environments where decisions carry real consequences.

We explore the power of body language, how to reframe situations in real time, and the art of reverse engineering goals to create clarity and control — even in chaos. This episode is packed with practical insights on staying calm, focused, and effective when it matters most.

A powerful conversation on mindset, performance, and mastering pressure.
