AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports climbers caught up in a snow storm are rescued on Nepal's Mount Annapurna.
In this gripping episode of The Determined Society, host Shawn French sits down with Emily Harrington — world-renowned professional climber, mother, and IMAX documentary star of Girl Climber.Emily opens up about the physical and emotional peaks behind her record-breaking climbs, including her free ascent of El Capitan, balancing motherhood, and the deep human lessons that come with facing fear thousands of feet in the air.What makes Emily's story so powerful isn't just the scale of her climbs — it's the honesty behind them. She shares how fear still finds her on every wall, how she's learned to trust her gear, her partners, and herself, and how failure is not the enemy but the environment climbers live in.Together, she and Shawn explore the psychology of resilience, the beauty of imperfection, and the parallels between climbing and life — from battling self-doubt to finding meaning beyond the summit.The conversation also touches on her marriage to fellow climber and guide Adrian Ballinger, her late mentor Hilaree Nelson, and her deep love for Ecuador, where she and Adrian were married. Between discussions of altitude, family, and fear, Emily paints a portrait of determination that transcends sport.If you've ever faced something that scared you, doubted your own strength, or wondered what's left after achieving the impossible — this one's for you.Key Takeaways-Fear doesn't disappear — it evolves. Even pros feel it at the edge.-Failure isn't the opposite of success; it's the path to mastery.-Parenthood and adventure aren't mutually exclusive — both require endurance and grace.-The real summit isn't the wall, it's who you become climbing it.-Vulnerability is strength; perfection is a myth.-Gratitude and perspective are the antidotes to burnout.Connect with me :https://link.me/theshawnfrench?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaY2s9TipS1cPaEZZ9h692pnV-rlsO-lzvK6LSFGtkKZ53WvtCAYTKY7lmQ_aem_OY08g381oa759QqTr7iPGAEmily Harringtonhttps://www.instagram.com/emilyaharrington/

British Columbia police were stumped by the 2017 murder of Jessie James, an avid “dirtbag” rock climber, campground philosopher, and shit-posting online troll who lived out of his truck. After years of dead ends, investigators learned the victim had been using an alias, after walking away from a checkered past in the US.

After making a world wide web of enemies, did someone finally locate the shape-shifting provocateur in the Canadian woods and take their revenge? From CBC Podcasts comes “Dirtbag Climber from Uncover.” Chua crisscrosses North America to learn more about Andrew Britt Greenbaum and his life of cons and contradictions.

In this episode, I'm excited to be joined by Emily Harrington, one of the most successful and versatile professional climbers in the world. Emily discusses the pressure of failure and perfectionism in motherhood, pregnancy, and postpartum, which are common experiences among mothers. Join us to hear this beautiful conversation about life at the intersection of motherhood and elite athleticism in a largely male-dominated sport. Emily Harrington is a five-time US National Champion, has completed numerous first female ascents of 5.14 routes, summited Mt. Everest, and made a complete ski descent of Cho Oyu, the world's sixth-tallest peak. She made history when she became the first woman to free-climb “Golden Gate on El Capitan in under 24 hours. The movie about Emily's career, Girl Climber, is screening at IMAX theaters and various cinemas through the end of the year. It will be available on JOLT starting on October 15 and will be available for full streaming in November. Emily currently resides in Tahoe City, CA, where she spends her time training, climbing, and skiing with her husband and young son. Show Highlights: Common assumptions about what moms “can/can't” do Emily's journey as a climber, which started at age 10 Thinking about having a baby as a natural part of life The 7-year plan to climb El Capitan—and then have a baby A plan for modified climbing and running as her pregnant body changed Approaching pregnancy from a place of curiosity Feeling unprepared for what came after childbirth Breastfeeding and sleep challenges—and dealing with unsolicited advice Emily's way of dealing with others' judgments and comparisons Parallels between climbing and motherhood Letting go of perfection to find more peace “Enjoying the struggle and embracing failure” Girl Climber: how it tells the story that we all go through failure, and we can show that with honesty and vulnerability Climbing: a sport that is growing in popularity and accessibility What Emily wants other moms to know Resources: Connect with Emily Harrington: Instagram and the screening schedule for Girl Climber Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visitcdph.ca.gov.

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: Rungs and Revelations: Ascending the Spiritual Ladder [Part II of II]Why is spiritual growth so incredibly hard and confusing? Why do some people stay put in the same world view forever? Why do some people seem to grow quickly and seem to be magnets inviting others to grow? Why do some people feel torn between emerging beliefs and paralyzing fear that the old beliefs might actually be right? And why do some people seem to trade in their old perspectives for new ones but seem to hold onto the same rigidity and judgment?

Brent & Johnny welcome CAA artist and Sony Music Publishing songwriter, Garrett Jacobs, to the Challenge. Together, they create 5-6 different conceptual angles for writing a song titled "Broken Keys," sent in by CLIMBer, DE Beeler. Garrett's Story: After graduating from high school, Garrett decided to make his first trip to Nashville, Tennessee, where he was invited to play a writer's round at the renowned Whiskey Jam. By the end of the night, he was scheduling writing sessions throughout the week. In the first of those sessions, our guest wrote what would become his debut single, "The Healing". Not long after the song was released, he signed deals with CAA and later with Sony Music Publishing.

Send us a Positive Review!How does one break down the intricacies of the spiritual transformation journey? Although different for each person, there is in fact a common thread that connects every person's onward and upward climb towards their greatest potential consciousness. In today's episode Val and Nathan introduce a way to think about this process using three key metaphors: the ladder of consciousness, the climber navigating between rungs, and the expanding view at higher levels.

In the early summer of 2017, police in Squamish, British Columbia discovered the body of a man in a burned out vehicle. It took little time for the police to declare his death a homicide. What took more time was identifying who the man was. Originally, authorities thought his name was Jesse James, but they discovered he had other identities: Andrew Britt Greenbaum, Davis Wolfgang Hawke, Commander Bo Decker. Each identity revealed a mysterious past - and a potential motive for his murder.In the new podcast, Dirtbag Climber, host Steven Chua takes us along on the adventure to uncover who the real Jesse James was.

Learn five powerful lessons for achieving big, difficult goals that I took away from watching Girl Climber -- the new film that chronicles Emily Harrington's incredible, multi-year journey to free-climb El Capitan's Golden Gate route in under 24 hours. For me, this isn't just a film about climbing—it's about resilience, will power, and the triumph of human spirit, Furthermore, it serves as a bold reminder of what it takes to stay committed to a dream in the face of fear, doubt, setbacks, and even failure. As Emily's journey shows, greatness isn't built on talent alone. It comes from disciplined training, uncommon courage and toughness, and the willingness to keep showing up for a goal that feels just out of reach. I had the chance to see Girl Climber on its IMAX theatrical release date, August 24th, and I'll tell you—it was excellent! Truly a must-see for anyone passionate about climbing…or simply fascinated by what it takes to push the human mind and body to their limits in pursuit of a big goal. Podcast Rundown 0:15 – Intro to T4C podcast and my initial thoughts on the Girl Climber film 1:30 - If you missed it in IMAX theaters, don't worry. The film is now playing on the Indy Movie Theater network, with larger chain theaters scheduled to pick it up in the coming months. And starting this October, Girl Climber will be available online as a paid download from jolt.films.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

CLIMBers, I keep hearing artists talk about choosing this streaming platform over that streaming platform because it "pays" better. There is no set streaming rate for any streaming service.

From the very beginning of trying to improve at climbing, we're told one thing: Work on your weaknesses. I've probably said this a million times myself. But I've also paid attention to what happens as a result of that type of instruction. And what happens is: we end up in this constant cycle of trying to determine what our weaknesses are and fix them. But there's a big problem with this line of thinking... Read the rest on the blog!

El Cap. Free. In a day. It's an accomplishment that puts a climber in lofty company. In 2020, Emily Harrington succeeded on Golden Gate.

Years ago I was working on what would turn out to be my longest-ever project, Swingline, the first 13d I'd ever tried. I had spent parts of several seasons on it, my fitness was at an all-time high, and I had done all of the obvious links. But I couldn't break through. The only thing left to do was send, but it just wasn't happening. I wasn't being honest. I was telling myself a story – like we all do – and that story is often false. So I finally asked myself the question... Read the rest on the blog! Watch the video on YouTube! _________________________
