Tim Harris is a living testament to the power of mental resilience. Faced with depression, severe arthritis, and a shoulder reconstruction, Tim embarked on one of the world's most challenging endeavours—the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge, an unassisted row across the Atlantic Ocean.
More exclusive than space travel or conquering Everest, Tim's journey was a physical and mental triumph.
Before his challenge, Tim had spent the past 12 years as Global Head of Fuel Oil for PVM Oil Associates. He was on the brink of burnout and realised something had to change. So, in 2020, motivated by a desire to raise awareness for mental health issues, Tim joined the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge.
Through this incredible journey, he and his friend Simon Calver raised £160,000 for a teenage mental health charity.
After achieving this extraordinary feat, Tim made a significant life transition. Leaving his role as Global Head of Fuel Oil, he embraced a new path as a coach, leveraging his experiences to guide others in managing stress, building resilience, preventing burnout, and navigating challenging life changes.
Tim's expertise has since been sought after by some of the world's largest organisations, including Google, the NHS, and the Royal Navy.
