Bernhard Hengl is an (wannabe) ultra-marathon swimmer, keynote speaker, and former captain of the Austrian national water polo team. Years after overcoming cancer, he founded The Alpine Seven – a series of long-distance swims across seven iconic Alpine lakes. His mission: to raise awareness for people living with illness. Illness is not a taboo! In 2025, he became the first Austrian to swim the full length of Lake Constance – 65 km in just under 26 hours. With his message “High Performance starts with Resilience,” he now inspires people and organizations to transform resilience into true high performance. https://bernhardhengl.com/ https://www.nfkinder.at/unterstuetzen/alpine7/?cfd=94lok#cff Questions, comments, feedback, or if you'd like to be a guest, email me !
