Podcast appearances and mentions of Alex Honnold

This week, I'm bringing back a listener's favorite from the archive while I'm on a summer break. Deirdre Wolownick joined me for a powerful conversation about courage and pushing past boundaries. This one's just as relevant now as it was then.  This episode originally aired as Episode 111 on September 28, 2022.   Everything is a choice. Dierdre Wolownick is an accomplished woman who speaks 8 languages, is a professor, published author and speaker, plays several instruments, founded and conducted the West Sacramento Orchestra. This is just the tip of the iceberg. She raised 2 ultra athletes, but never thought of herself as an athlete. Funny enough, a simple walk with her dog and conversation with her son, Alex Honnold, changed her life.  At 55, she began running, and has since done marathons, half-marathons and other races. At 59, she began rock climbing, and at 66, she became the oldest woman to climb Yosemite's iconic El Capitan. Last year, she celebrated her 70th birthday by going up El Cap again and camping on the summit. Whenever we feel that fear that's stopping us from getting what we want we can remind ourselves that our reaction to that fear is a choice… and that we never climb the mountain all at once… we do it 3 feet at a time… Babysteps are the key to doing anything you want to do.

Earlier this summer, host Shelby Stanger recorded a live episode of Wild Ideas Worth Living with Alex Honnold at the Outside Festival in Denver, Colorado. Alex is one of the most well-known climbers in the world, best known for his free solo climb of El Capitan— the 3,000-foot vertical wall of granite in Yosemite National Park.In this conversation, Shelby talks to Alex about the projects he's chasing now, how parenthood has shifted his relationship with adventure, and what his approach to free soloing looks like today.Connect with Alex: WebsiteInstagramHonnold FoundationIf you enjoyed this episode listen to Making Art as a Couple With Jimmy Chin and Chai VasarhelyiThank you to our sponsors: Capital One and the REI Co-op® Mastercard® Benchmade 

As you know, with government funding cuts slowing climate progress across the board, philanthropy is more important than ever. Private foundations offer just a drop in the bucket compared to government funding, but they can still play an important role and catalyze other forms of capital. That's why I'm doing a series of episodes on climate philanthropy. If you have ideas of other foundations that should be part of this series, please reach out through InvestedinClimate.comWe spoke recently with Pisces Foundation President David Beckman on the importance of funding movement infrastructure. Today's episode considers a totally different perspective. Alex Honnold is perhaps the world's most famous professional rock climber. He's also a true climate leader. He decided years ago to donate one-third of his income to address climate change, and he uses his platform to raise awareness and money to help people in remote communities develop solar projects. Alex brings a no-nonsense, pragmatic approach but also one that is deeply compassionate, prioritizing projects that change people's lives.In this conversation, I'm joined by Alex, as well as Emily Teitsworth, Executive Director of the Honnold Foundation. We, of course, talk about Alex's history, his climbing, and how it's influenced his climate philanthropy. We go deep into the foundation's theory of change, some tangible examples of projects they've supported, and the broader impact they have in elevating a portfolio of worthy projects for other funders to consider. Alex's resources are not vast. His dedication runs deep, however, and even with modest resources, he's been able to support over 100 projects that have impacted thousands of people. I find Alex's example truly inspiring. And, I hope this episode inspires you to move past the feeling that we sometimes all feel – that our resources or influence are too small to have an impact – and just do what you can.On today's episode, we cover:[03:48] Alex Discusses Founding the Honnold Foundation[04:13] Alex's Environmental Motivation[06:18] Emily's Background and Journey[08:30] Honnold Foundation's Mission and Strategy[10:10] Reasons for Focusing on Community Solar[12:52] Importance of Community-Led Projects[14:38] Examples of Supported Projects[17:11] Foundation's Focus Areas[19:27] Specific Project Highlights[24:26] Philanthropic Opportunities[26:53] Storytelling and Media Exposure[30:42] Cultural Impact Discussion[35:20] Alex's Perspective on Impact[37:00] Persistence and Motivation in Climate Work[38:43] Alex's Recent Climbing Experience[39:32] Future Plans for the Honnold Foundation[40:24] Closing RemarksResources MentionedHonnold FoundationHonnold Foundation: PartnersCeibo AllianceAdjuntasHonnold Foundation: Featured...

Surnommé «le spiderman français», ce grimpeur de légende, adepte du solo intégral, sans corde ni assurage, revient à 62 ans sur sa fascinante trajectoire à la verticale.  Quand on se penche sur la vie d'Alain Robert, le vertige n'est jamais très loin. À son actif, plus de 250 ascensions urbaines sur 170 buildings à travers le monde, sans aucun système d'assurage ; sans parler des innombrables voies qu'il a gravies en falaises, là aussi en solo intégral. Cette pratique de puriste, de danseur du rocher, qui, à chaque instant, chaque mouvement, tutoie le vide et la mort, est l'apanage d'une infime élite de grimpeurs à travers le monde, des téméraires disent certains, des fous disent d'autres. Celles et ceux qui d'en bas, ont pu un jour voir Alain Robert gravir les plus hautes tours du monde, des Tours Pétronas en Malaisie à la Tour Taipei 101, en passant par la Tour Burj Khalifa de Dubaï à plus de 828 mètres de haut, l'ont donc parfois rangé parmi les fous. Un fou, pas tant que ça, quand on l'écoute raconter avec lucidité sa philosophie de vie, les risques certes vertigineux qu'il prend pour grimper mais qu'il mesure à chaque instant, ainsi que le long chemin qui l'a amené, à sa manière, au sommet du monde.  Au Chamonix Film Festival, qui s'est tenu à la mi-juin dans la capitale mondiale de l'alpinisme, Alain Robert était le grand invité de cet événement de grimpeurs et d'amoureux de la montagne ; une famille à laquelle appartient sans aucun doute Alain Robert. Mais, comme toujours dans les familles, les plus excentriques font souvent figure de doux-dingues, de marginaux qu'on dit avoir du mal à suivre ou à comprendre, les artistes de la famille en somme…  Sauf qu'à 62 ans, Alain Robert n'a plus rien à prouver. Sa trajectoire parle d'elle-même. Autodidacte de la grimpe, il fait à 19 ans une chute dramatique, qui va le laisser lourdement handicapé des mains, des avant-bras, pris aussi par un vertige médical persistant. Pourtant, après cela, il enchaînera les solos les plus audacieux, à Cornas ou dans le Verdon ; des exploits en falaises éclipsés par près de 30 ans d'ascensions urbaines, plus spectaculaires et émaillées d'innombrables arrestations, car ces ascensions étaient le plus souvent illégales. Achevant de faire d'Alain Robert un marginal inclassable, en pantalon python et cheveux longs : une rock-star des gratte-ciels. Aujourd'hui, l'élite actuelle des grimpeurs solo comme Alex Honnold ou Alexander Huber, sait ce qu'elle lui doit. Et lui rend hommage en préface d'une biographie parue aux Éditions du Mont-Blanc qui vient rappeler son héritage de prodige de falaises. À 60 ans, Alain Robert a récemment renoué avec le rocher dans le Verdon.     En savoir plus : - Sur Alain Robert et suivre son actualité sur fb - Sur «L'homme araignée. Alain Robert.

When Sonnie Trotter first tried climbing at age 15, he knew he'd found the path he was meant to follow. Now, 30 years later, he's looking back on a life spent pushing himself and the sport, chasing adventures in wild places.         His new memoir, Uplifted, includes stories that span his climbing career, including his legendary first free ascent of the 5.14 trad testpiece Cobra Crack, climbs with friends Tommy Caldwell, Chris Sharma and Alex Honnold, and reflections on risk as a husband and father. One of the strongest and most positive climbers of our time, Sonnie manages to hold even his gnarliest experiences lightly and his writing offers hard-earned wisdom with the personal and friendly delivery of tales told around the campfire. Listen to an excerpt from Uplifted, read by Jack Schlinkert and written by Sonnie Trotter.This episode of Patagonia Stories was produced by Patagonia and Cosmic Standard.

A CMO Confidential Interview with Dr. Eugene Soltes, Harvard Business School Professor and author of "Why They Do It - Inside the Mind of the White Collar Criminal". Eugene discusses how most crimes start out as small, often unnoticed decisions made by strategic people, how nearly everyone has a chance to step over the line, why many companies (Air BnB, Uber, AI) take regulatory risk, and how culture drives poor individual choices. Key topics include: when puffery gets murky; why it's dangerous to "convince yourself;" why it doesn't matter "who signed off;" and the "fraud triangle." Listen in to hear why humility and counterpoints are critical, what he learned about risk assessment from the Free Solo climber, the "difference between being an arms dealer and a transportation company," and how there are "a million ways to pay a bribe."In Part 2 of our conversation with Harvard Business School professor and author of Why They Do It, Dr. Eugene Soltes, we dive even deeper into the ethical gray zones that surround today's most ambitious companies. From social media firms that hide behind “just connecting people” to leaders who convince themselves their actions are justified, Eugene explains how culture, rationalization, and groupthink drive even the smartest executives into trouble.You'll learn why having a sign-off from Legal is never enough, why the “show me where it says I can't” culture is so corrosive, and why CMOs must understand the difference between business risk and integrity risk. We also hear Eugene's story of climbing (briefly) with Free Solo legend Alex Honnold and how that shaped his thinking around open-eyed risk—a model every marketing leader should understand.Topics include: • Why CMOs can't hide behind Legal • The “arms dealer” mindset in corporate marketing • Risk culture vs. innovation culture • How companies accidentally incentivize bad behavior • Psychological safety vs. performative candor • The million ways bribes get disguised • The importance of personal humility—even in the C-Suite

Cody and Jonathan discuss The Eiger Sanction, because it celebrates its 50th anniversary this week; it stars Clint Eastwood, who was the biggest movie star in the world at the time; and, perhaps most importantly here, Alex Honnold has called The Eiger Sanction the most realistic climbing film that Hollywood has ever produced.

Hangboard-Training ist wohl eine der besten Methoden, um stärker zu werden und sein Leistungsniveau zu verschieben. Doch natürlich gibt es nicht nur eine Möglichkeit, am Hangboard zu trainieren. Wäre auch merkwürdig, immerhin gibt es auch nicht nur eine Methode, um Kraft zu trainieren. Die Frage ist immer: Welche Art von Kraft brauche ich, wo liegen meine Defizite, und wenn ich das weiß, kann ich auch die richtige Wahl für das Hangboard-Training treffen.

Melissa Davey took the adage about it's never too late to try something new quite seriously. This wasn't about jumping out of an airplane kind of stuff. In her sixties, she retired from a lengthy corporate career to pursue her second act and dream of becoming a filmmaker. I always tell teens I coach or meet who are stressed about picking a college major and choosing a career path, that the average American changes careers, not just jobs, seven times in their lifetimes. You never know when circumstances allow you to drop the grind and forge a new direction, like you heard Australian Maddy Reynolds do in a WASP episode a few weeks ago when she dumped the corporate world to become a pro trail runner. Melissa was the Vice President of Social Security and Managed Disability at GENEX for 22 years, sat on the company's executive team, and worked throughout the United States to create and deliver services to the disability insurance marketplace. But after a day on the set with famed screenwriter and filmmaker M Night Shyamalan, she decided to take a risk and left her career to jump into the unknown. Pursuing her dream of becoming a filmmaker became a reality in late 2018 when Melissa completed her first feature film, Beyond Sixty, which highlights stories of women making similar jumps, including the woman behind the original voice of Siri, the Madam CJ Walker biographer, and the sculptor of Lady Gaga's Fame perfume carriage. During 2019, Melissa's film was accepted by and screened at eight film festivals throughout the United States and Canada, winning awards and confirming that it is never too late to learn something new. Picked up by a distributor and released in 2021, the film is currently available on most streaming platforms. Melissa's second film, Climbing into Life, details the inspiring life story of Dierdre Wolownick, the oldest woman to ascend El Capitan, who also happens to be the mother of famed free solo climber Alex Honnold. The film is currently making the film festival rounds. Melissa is a champion to show that it isn't too late for people over 60, particularly women to explore new pathways and make a profound impact on the world. It's such a great message to share, and she does it with an infectious energy as you'll find out in this episode.Melissa Daveymelissadavey.combeyondsixty.commelissa@melissadavey.comFacebook Beyond Sixty DocumentaryInstagram @beyond60project and @climbing_into_lifeBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signup

Alex Honnold doesn't just climb mountains—he defies them. The legendary free solo climber (scaling sheer rock faces without a rope or safety equipment) and star of Free Solo, the Academy Award-winning documentary, joins The Zac Clark Show for a deep dive into the psychology of risk, obsession, and resilience. Alex opens up about his all-or-nothing mentality, the dangers and discipline of climbing, and why he's never touched alcohol. He, Zac, and Jay explore the parallels between extreme sports and recovery—how both demand total commitment, the power of consistency, and the fine line between passion and self-destruction.But what happens when the stakes shift from personal ambition to family responsibility? Alex reflects on fear, mortality, and the risks he's willing—and unwilling—to take now that he's a husband and father. From free soloing to social media, spirituality, and the pressures of unwanted fame, this conversation goes far beyond the wall into the mind of someone who has quite literally made it to the mountaintop.Connect with Zachttps://www.instagram.com/zwclark/https://www.linkedin.com/in/zac-c-746b96254/https://www.tiktok.com/@zacwclarkhttps://www.strava.com/athletes/55697553https://twitter.com/zacwclarkIf you or anyone you know is struggling, please do not hesitate to contact Release:(914) 588-6564releaserecovery.com@releaserecovery

Does Alex Honnold need an introduction? No, of course he doesn't. But he was particularly suited for this conversation about Bachar and Croft for several reasons: #1, Alex is a student of history. He cares about this stuff. If you haven't listened to his Climbing Gold podcast, you should. I highly recommend the Dope Lake series - it's a 5 part series about the 1976 plane crash in the Yosemite high country - a plane that was carrying 4 million dollars worth of marijuana. Go listen. #2, he's the obvious torch bearer for what these guys did - the soloing, yes, but also the pushing of Valley standards and the furthering of the conversation. And #3, because as much as I want these stories to be larger than life, I also wanted them to be rooted in a realistic look at what we can learn. And if there's anyone who can just be logical, it's Alex Honnold.  In this episode we get into an interesting progression that Alex didn't even realize he was part of, meeting your heroes, mythologizing, big link ups, soloing, and what John Bachar and Peter Croft mean for climbing and for Alex personally.

Las Vegas resident Alex Honnold is perhaps the most famous rock climber in the world. Lesser known — but just as impressive — is his mother.

Jonathan Retseck founded RXR Sports to work with athletes, explorers and storytellers in outdoor brands. It didn't take long before RXR amassed what is arguably the dream team of athletes under management. Alex Honnold, Jimmy Chin, Rich Roll and many more are part of their stacked roster of talent. But the story goes well beyond the transactional nature of sponsorship - what RXR does to build deep partnerships with intention has led to some incredible media output, the most well known being films like Free Solo and Meru. In this unfiltered conversation with Jonathan, we talk about the founding of the agency and the challenges of maintaining a roster as heavy as theirs.

Increasingly, it seems that corporate philanthropy (and even personal giving) are reactive rather than proactive. Today's episode challenges that notion with an insightful look into the relationship REC Solar's Cary Hayes has formed with Alex Honnold and his Honnold Foundation, which REC has supported for years with both cash and in-kind donations. Why does Cary believe this is a meaningful part of their annual marketing budget? Hear Cary, Alex & Nico discuss why this is an overlooked marketing line item for most companies, and consider for yourself if supporting non-profits should be more prevalent in yours or anyone's annual budget.Alex Honnold is best known for his daring free solo climbs, but his true passion lies in bringing clean energy to the world's most underserved communities. In a compelling conversation with Cary Hayes, President-America's at REC, Honnold shares the origin and evolution of the Honnold Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to solar power. By focusing on grassroots, "shovel-ready" projects, the foundation empowers local organizations to lead transformative initiatives, from cooperative microgrids in Puerto Rico to solar installations in remote African villages. Honnold's journey—from dirtbag climber living in a van to International superstar spearheading a $50 million project pipeline—underscores the importance of starting small and prioritizing tangible impact over perfection.Following the Hayes/Honnold conversation, host Nico Johnson expands on this vision in a 1:1 with Cary reflecting on the solar industry's unique opportunity to amplify its influence through philanthropy. Cary shares insights from REC Solar's collaboration with the Honnold Foundation and explores how partnerships like these align corporate innovation with community resilience. Nico challenges the solar sector to move beyond profit-driven mindsets, arguing for a mission-first approach that redirects resources toward high-impact projects. Together, they discuss the power of storytelling, collaboration, and leadership to inspire a more sustainable and equitable future.It's time to put our shoulders to the plow, align our resources with our mission, and drive meaningful, community-focused change. We all have a role to play in creating a more sustainable and equitable future.If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 730 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling:

On the auspicious Episode 300 of the Enormocast, Alex Honnold hijacks the Enormocast to interview Chris Kalous of the Enormocast. Yes, it turns out that Alex Honnold gets to have everything. Alex takes the interview skills that he's honed over at Climbing Gold and talks to Chris about his climbing origins, podcast pioneering, and why … Continue reading "Enormocast 300: Chris Kalous by Alex Honnold – No Retreat, No Surrender"

Alex Honnold, the world-famous rock climber and philanthropist, has pushed the physical boundaries of human potential with his climbing pursuits, but in his travels to some of the world's most remote and beautiful locations he's come face-to-face with one of the world's most urgent challenges: energy access.Alex has never been one to stand by and let others do the hard work. Before his rise to fame with his harrowing, albeit Oscar-winning performance on Yosemite's most famous of all big walls, El Capitan, Honnold has had a soft spot for those without energy access. He points out that at its most fundamental level energy brings opportunity. That's why he created his eponymous foundation to help expand solar energy access and empower underserved communities while promoting conservation in some of the most remote and vulnerable regions on the planet. And he's been donating a third of his income to every year to help underserved communities acquire solar energy since long before achieving international recognition for his climbing feats.If you've been paying attention over the last few years, though, Honnold's “objectives” (climber speak for projects) have blended the thrill of climbing with the responsibility of creating a lasting impact by helping preserve the environment in more ways than just environmental protection. Thanks to Cary Hayes & the REC Solar team, who have been an ongoing corporate partner for Honnold Foundation, Nico recently had a chance to spend the day with Honnold at his home gym outside Las Vegas, NV. (yes, you read that right - we actually got to go to his HOME climbing gym, in his garage, and climb with him! More on that in a forthcoming LI Post…) In this wide-ranging conversation, Alex offers a rare perspective on how personal ambition can align with global progress, and why he believes solar power is a great social justice tool. From free soloing ascents of big walls to addressing energy inequity, Honnold is truly reaching new heights. Tune in to discover:How he balances family life, climbing, and building the Honnold FoundationHow Big Horn sheep helped shape his outlook on lifeWhy solar energy provides more leverage to address social inequalityHow lessons from climbing translate to building lasting impact and entrepreneurshipAnd much, much more (really, we learned a lot from this #SolarWarrior!)If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 730 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling:

Babsi Zangerl's flash ascent of Free Rider on El Capitan in November—the first flash of any El Cap big-wall free route—was a highlight of the year in climbing. In this interview, the 36-year-old Austrian climber describes her preparation, fears, and the intense effort of her no-falls ascent on the 5.13a wall route. Plus, Alex Honnold and Josh Wharton share their personal perspectives on Free Rider. AAJ editor Dougald MacDonald adds context on Babsi's historic ascent. And you'll hear Jamie Logan describe free climbing on this line way back in 1972. Photo of Babsi Zangerl high on El Cap by Miya Tsudome for Highpoint Productions.

Yosemite Valley legend Tommy Caldwell joins Sam and Adrian on Episode 18 of the Duffel Shuffle Podcast. Tommy talks about this season in Yosemite Valley, and why moving his family to South Lake Tahoe has changed how he's able to climb in the valley. He also talks about his recent film, The Devil's Climb, which covers his recent trip to climb the Devils Thumb in Alaska with Alex Honnold. Tommy admits that his true passion in climbing is the sufferfest expeditions, but really he just loves climbing regardless of what it entails.  Follow Tommy on Instagram @tommycaldwell, and check out The Devil's Climb. 

Today's guest is climbing's Captain America, Tommy Cadlwell. Tommy's latest film is called The Devil's Climb, and it documents an epic adventure in which he and Alex Honnold rode their bike's to Alaska and enchained all the summits on the striking and infamous Devil's Thumb massif. The film was pitched as an environmental film, but the directors decided that global warming was less interesting than Tommy and Alex's bromance.  We catch up with one of the world's greatest climbers of all time and hear about making this film, and all the other things in life. But first, we open up the official record book of climbing, and discuss the recent news of Michaela Kirsh becoming the first woman to do a V15 and 5.15a, Babsi Zangerl's flash of Freerider, and other achievements.  For our final bit, we're pleased to share the heady music of longtime climber Dave Pomeranz's band, Whale Fall, with their track Chronophobia.

Guest: RJ Scaringe, CEO and Founder of Rivian“I'm very comfortable with things not being in their end state,” says Rivian CEO and founder RJ Scaringe. The company's challenging mission — to help make 100% of the world's cars electric — will take a long time, and a lot of willingness to build the metaphorical plane in midair. As Rivian has grown from one person to seven to 17,000, though, RJ admits that there's a lot more pressure to not screw up. “There's all these conflicting emotions I had ... is this the right product?” he recalls. “Is it the right strategy? Am I capable of doing this? But at the end of the day, I try really hard not to let that be overly distracting.”Chapters:(01:58) - Starting from scratch (05:35) - Auto tech innovation (08:03) - The supply chain (09:52) - Rivian's deal with Volkswagen (14:28) - Outsourcing (16:10) - Capable EVs (19:06) - Brand and customer satisfaction (21:05) - That nagging feeling (27:26) - Raising capital (31:31) - RJ's father (32:35) - The dark side of cars (34:43) - Tesla's influence (37:13) - Financial challenges (42:38) - Entrepreneurial mindset (44:59) - Hard decisions (46:46) - Don't screw this up (49:56) - 25,000 decisions a day (52:16) - Daily routines (54:57) - Who Rivian is hiring (55:34) - What “grit” means to RJ Mentioned in this episode: Porsche, Alex Honnold, Amazon AWS, Mercedes, Elon Musk, Lotus, U.S. News and World Report, MotorTrend, J.D.

Each Sunday, TED shares an episode of another podcast we think you'll love, handpicked for you… by us. Today we're sharing a special episode of ReThinking with Adam Grant, a podcast about what makes the greatest minds tick. In 2017, Alex Honnold did what even the world's best rock climbers thought was impossible. He climbed to the top of El Capitan -- a granite rock mountain more than 3,000 feet high -- without a rope, harness, or net. His audacious feat was the subject of the Oscar-winning documentary “Free Solo,” and it left Adam with some burning questions about what we can learn from his unique approach to managing fear. Alex opens up about how he regulates his emotions when he's hanging on by just a few fingers, what still scares him, and how he stays motivated to pursue ambitious goals.
