There have been many films and documentaries about the thrill and struggle of climbing Everest and with social media it has become an ever more popular destination.  Just this year a French youtuber has broken audience records for his film ‘Kaizen' about his challenge that he made to conquer Everest in just one year.  Over the past century, over 340 climbers have died on its peaks, with 2015 being the deadliest year with 22 fatalities. Most deaths result from avalanches, falls, and mountain sickness, which occurs at high altitudes due to low oxygen levels and can cause fatal brain or lung edema. Isn't Everest extremely dangerous? How do you get the bodies down? What happened in the storm of ‘96? What about over-tourism? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

What do you want next? Maybe you have a big dream you've been thinking about for years. Maybe there's one area of your life you know you want to change. Or maybe you're in a season where you honestly have no idea what you want next. In this episode, I'm joined by two of my best friends, Laurie Shopland and Kristin Dabney, for a conversation about dreams, goals, trusting yourself, and what it actually takes to create something you want in your life. And we have a BIG announcement! We're hosting ELEVATE, a one-day retreat for women on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at Kristin's beautiful lake home in Lynchburg, Virginia. There are only 20 spots, and registration is now open. Get all the details and register here: https://simplysquaredaway.com/elevate The three of us met during our coach certification and have been meeting together regularly since 2018. We've walked through business growth, personal challenges, big decisions, changing seasons, and a lot of dreams together. One of those early dreams was building a $100K business. At the time, it felt almost impossible. Today, all three of us have crossed that line, and we talk about what surprised us about reaching that goal, including why achieving the goal doesn't necessarily create the feeling you thought it would. We also talk about another dream we've had for years: hosting a retreat together. This year, we finally stopped talking about it and put a date on the calendar. But as our conversation unfolds, we realize that “dream” might not even be the right word for what we're talking about. Elevating your life doesn't have to mean climbing Mount Everest, building a six-figure business, giving a TEDx talk, or making some enormous life change. It might mean having a conversation you've been avoiding. It might mean changing careers, asking for a raise, focusing on your health, improving a relationship, starting a business, organizing your kitchen, or finally giving yourself space to figure out what you want. And sometimes the first step is simply trusting that the thing that keeps coming up in your heart is worth paying attention to. In this episode, we talk about: What we remember about dreaming of becoming $100K business owners Why reaching a goal doesn't automatically make you feel the way you expected What we've learned about pursuing goals without all the hustle Why some dreams stay with you even when the timing isn't right What finally moved our retreat from “someday” to an actual date on the calendar Why your dream doesn't have to be big to matter How to trust yourself when something keeps nudging you What to do when you don't know what you want The value of getting out of your normal environment and giving yourself space to think Why community and coaching can help you see possibilities you can't always see on your own Everything we're planning for ELEVATE! COME TO ELEVATE ELEVATE is a one-day experience designed to give you the space to step back, look at your life, and decide what you want to elevate next. You'll complete a life reflection, choose the ONE area that would make the biggest difference in your life right now, receive coaching and support, and leave with a framework and plan you can use again and again. You'll also have time to reflect, walk by the lake, journal, connect with other women, enjoy beautiful food and surroundings, and let someone else take care of YOU for the day. ELEVATE Saturday, October 17, 2026 9:30 AM–4:00 PM ET Lynchburg, Virginia $297 Only 20 women (now only 18; 2 spots sold immediately, and the others will go fast!) Registration closes October 5 or when all 20 spots are filled. Register at simplysquaredaway.com/elevate You don't need a big dream to come. You might come because you already know exactly what you want to elevate. You might come because something in your life feels unsettled and you need space to think. You might come because you're ready for connection, coaching, inspiration, or simply a beautiful day away. And you might come because you have absolutely no idea what you want next. You don't have to have a dream to come to ELEVATE. You might come to discover one.

Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, Confidence — the four phases every high-achieving woman moves through on her way back to herself, and why they only work in that order.This is episode four in the Back to School of Midlife series, and it's one that Laurie purposely saved. Not because it's the least important — because it's one of the most important, and if she'd led with it, you would have tuned out.Here's the setup: most of Laurie's clients arrive having already done the physical work of midlife. Hormones optimized. Sleep dialed in. Alcohol cut back. Steps logged, protein hit, strength training on the calendar. They're doing everything right. And they still don't feel like themselves.That's where the Four C's come in — the actual transformational arc underneath every coaching relationship Laurie has, whether her clients realize they're moving through it or not. And one thing she definitely wants to correct: Confidence does not come before Courage. It's the other way around, and getting that order backwards is exactly what keeps so many capable women stuck.What we cover:Why Laurie deliberately waited until episode four to introduce the Four C's, even though it's the "30,000-foot view" of everything she doesThe exact moment most of her clients hit: feeling good physically, but still not feeling like themselvesWhy optimizing your health further isn't the fix — and how that instinct keeps women in a burnout loopThe four phases, in order: Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, ConfidenceWhy confidence does NOT come first — and what actually produces it (hint: it's the action itself)What Curiosity feels like: the big questions most women have never once asked themselves — What's next for me? What's my legacy? Who am I in this season?How every core identity — daughter, mother, wife, career woman — is shifting at the same time in midlife, and why that's what makes the disorientation so intenseWhy "what don't you want" is often an easier, more honest starting point than "what do you want"Why Laurie thinks the "what do you want" question really is that simple — just not easyWhere the word "Courage" actually comes from (it's not what you think), and what that means for the decision you're sitting withLaurie's own "calculated risk" stories: training for her first marathon having never run more than a 5K, hiking 15 laps of a mountain in 36 hours to match Everest's elevation gain, and leaving her law partnership in the middle of a recessionWhy Courage is a full-body "yes" in your heart, not certainty about how things will turn outWhat Confidence is actually for: staying the course once Courage gets you movingWhy you're not going to magically find more time in your schedule — and what has to come off it insteadThe pushback you should expect once you start changing, and why it usually comes from the people who love you mostThis week's homework: figuring out — honestly — which of the four C's you're actually in right nowQuotable moments"Confidence doesn't come first. Confidence actually comes from taking the action.""Courage means you're willing to take the first step in the direction of the life you want to live, not because you know it's going to work out, but because it means so much to you.""You can have everything you ever thought you ever wanted and still feel like there's something missing.""It starts and ends with: what do you want? Just because it's simple, though, doesn't mean it's easy.""Courage actually comes from the Latin word cor, meaning heart.""Your biggest cheerleaders are the ones who are gonna throw up the most walls because they like the old you.""People don't chase dreams to get what they already have.""We need to have the Confidence to continue on the path that our Courage put us on."Laurie's ask for this episode Figure out which of the four C's you're actually in right now — Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, or Confidence — and be honest about it, not aspirational. Then ask yourself how you feel about that, and what you're going to do about it.→ Send her an email→ DM on InstagramResources + links mentionedEpisode 1: Overview of the School of Midlife and the coaching Laurie providesEpisode 2: The BEST LIFE™ FrameworkEpisode 3: Learn, Earn, Yearn — the three phases of lifeJOIN MY MAILING LISTCONNECT WITH LAURIE

Timothy Prewitt spent 30 years across 16 countries, solving seemingly unsolvable problems like hunger, water, and agriculture. To name a few: Kosovo after the war. Afghanistan. Nigeria. He ran The Hunger Project and iDE, reaching close to 13 million people a year. He also keeps a 35-year silent meditation practice, fasts alone in the mountains for four days at a stretch, and plays a lot of pinball. His work has nothing to do with Audio Description. This one is about how you start when the task in front of you is too big to look at. For Audio Description, there can be hundreds of description cues and not enough hours. Invoices nobody is paying. A career being squeezed by politics or technology. For Tim, his answer is small and usable, and it comes from Everest guides: don't look at the top of the mountain, just take the very next step. Along the way: why still water lets you see what's under it, why the people closest to a problem are the ones who solve it, and the truckload of donated hospital equipment that taught a 22-year-old idealist why good intentions need real expertise behind them.

Above 26,000 feet on Mount Everest lies the death zone — where the air can't keep you alive and the cold won't let the dead decay. This is Rainbow Valley, the stretch below the summit named for the bright jackets of the climbers who never came down. This week on Destination Terror: an original story of two climbers, and a brother who won't stay buried — wrapped around the chilling true history of Everest's frozen dead and the valley of color that waits below the summit.

Today is my 30th birthday. Ahhh!!! And after a month away from the podcast, which hasn't happened since I started it, this felt like the right episode to come back with.My 20s were challenging and beautiful and full. Living in Italy, living in France, the pandemic, building a business, falling in love, moving between friend groups, failing A LOT growing A LOT. I am SO proud of my 20s. And I am even more excited for what comes next.In this episode, I'm sharing 30 things I figured out before 30. Some are big life lessons, some are embarrassingly simple, and a few go deep into the stuff I talk about every week: nervous systems, healing patterns, why you can't think your way into change, and why your relationship with food and your body might just be your Mount Everest and what to do about it.This one is a good one to listen to on a walk. Bring a journal if you want to. And if something lands, come tell me over on Instagram. ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast

Gaby Dijkstra is an outdoor enthusiast, solo traveller, and researcher with a passion for remote mountain environments. Whether climbing, skiing, or paragliding, she feels most at home in the mountains and has travelled to all seven continents, breaking barriers as a solo female adventurer. After years of working in education and girl empowerment projects, Gaby became increasingly curious about the construct of gender and how societal expectations shape our behaviours, opportunities, and experiences. This curiosity ultimately led her to pursue a PhD at Rotterdam School of Management, designing her own research project to investigate the role of gender in extreme environments. In 2024, Gaby spent 191 days in the Himalayas, including 132 days living on the mountains, conducting fieldwork during a full climbing season in Nepal. Her research explored the role of gender in the extreme mountaineering industry, particularly among the people who work and operate in these challenging environments. Along the way, she joined a commercial expedition to climb Ama Dablam, visited the Khumbu Icefall and the Manaslu region, and was invited to take part in an exclusive winter expedition to Annapurna I. Through interviews, observations, and lived experience, Gaby gathered what she describes as "a mountain of data" on how gender norms continue to shape the culture of mountaineering. In this episode, Gaby shares what she learned from her time in the Himalayas, why the traditional heroic narrative of mountaineering can be harmful to both men and women, and how understanding gender as a social construct can help us rethink leadership, decision-making, and belonging in extreme environments. Listen to this episode to learn about conducting a PhD in one of the world's most challenging landscapes, the hidden gender dynamics within the mountaineering industry, and why talking to other women and pursuing your curiosities can open doors to entirely new adventures. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

In this episode, Chris Cochrane guest-hosts for his brother Ray and devotes the whole show to one event: Disney’s D23 2026 fan convention in Anaheim. Friday night delivered Marvel’s new X-Men cast, Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, a fresh Avengers: Doomsday trailer, and a release date for Frozen 3. Saturday turned to the parks, with Villains Land, an Indiana Jones dark ride, the long-awaited Expedition Everest yeti repair, and a Monsters Inc land opening in 2027. – Want to start a podcast?

Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Full Summary Chris Cochrane opens the show and explains why this episode breaks the usual format. Instead of six or eight unrelated stories, the entire episode covers Disney’s D23 convention, which he compares to Apple’s WWDC. For newcomers, he notes that D23 is Disney’s official fan club, named for the company’s founding year of 1923. This year’s event ran two nights at the Honda Center: Friday for movies and television, Saturday for the theme parks. Marvel Finally Casts the X-Men Friday’s headline was the X-Men. The Associated Press put the crowd near 12,000, and Marvel Studios used that stage to name its rebooted team. Christopher Abbott plays Professor Charles Xavier, Inde Navarrette plays Rogue, and Maya Boyd plays Storm. Adam Driver rounds out the group as the villain Mister Sinister. Meanwhile, Samara Weaving, Kit Connor, and Sadie Sink were already known as Emma Frost, Cyclops, and Jean Grey. Jake Schreier directs, and the film arrives May 5, 2028. Chris calls the lineup spot-on casting. He singles out Weaving as a perfect match for the comics, and he points out that Sink already appeared as Jean Grey in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Navarrette is the least established name, coming off a breakout role in an indie horror film. Boyd, meanwhile, was the name he knew least, with what he believes is a Broadway background. Above all, Chris hopes Marvel does the team justice, and he recommends the animated revival X-Men ’97 on Disney+ as the best place to start. Frozen 3 Gets a Date and a Chaotic Reveal Frozen 3 lands November 24, 2027. That is the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, the same slot the first two films used. The story centers on Anna and Kristoff’s wedding, which a new villain, an evil Ice Queen, disrupts. Jennifer Lee returns to direct with Trent Correy, and the full voice cast is back. However, the reveal itself fell apart. Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel performed a darker arrangement of “Frozen Heart.” Meanwhile, the audio failed, the video failed, and a set of doors never opened. Menzel asked the crowd whether they should try it again, and Bell simply narrated everything that was supposed to happen. Afterward, Josh Gad sang “Oooh, Samantha,” a new love song for Olaf. Chris is here for it, since Olaf is one of the franchise’s best comic characters. Pixar, Disney Animation, and the Rest of Friday Night Pixar chief Pete Docter laid out a packed slate. Incredibles 3 hits summer 2028 and follows Violet and Dash sneaking out at night to fight crime. Chris hopes that finally shows a grown-up Jack-Jack. Coco 2 follows in November 2029 with Benjamin Bratt returning as Ernesto de la Cruz. That has fans puzzling over how a villain already in the Land of the Dead comes back. Additionally, Pixar showed an original called Ghost Market and a Venice-set cat film called Gatto. On the Disney Animation side, Zootopia 3 is confirmed. The live-action Tangled arrives March 31, 2028 with Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel. Chris considers that casting perfect after her turn in Agatha All Along. A live-action Lilo & Stitch sequel, a new Simpsons movie, a Bluey movie, and a Kingdom Hearts anime series round out the list. For Star Wars fans, Ahsoka returns January 20, 2027. Chris also offers a hot take: he prefers Rogue One to the entire sequel trilogy. Consequently, he welcomes original stories like Ryan Gosling’s upcoming Starfighter. Adam Driver Is Mister Sinister Driver appeared by video rather than in person. He told the crowd that he and Kevin Feige had talked for years about joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Then he announced he would play Magneto. After a long pause, he corrected himself to Nathaniel Milbury, which is Mister Sinister’s human alias. The gag landed because fans had floated Driver for Magneto for years. For anyone new to the comics, Chris explains that Mister Sinister is a geneticist obsessed with mutant DNA, a manipulator rather than a brawler. The cast met backstage only minutes earlier, so Chris is curious how their chemistry develops. Notably, Christopher Abbott previously worked with Driver on HBO’s Girls. The script comes from Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-showrunner Joanna Calo, two prestige-television names that have Chris excited. Why the X-Men Took Thirty Years to Reach the MCU A business story underlies the casting. In the 1990s, a financially struggling Marvel sold film rights to raise cash. Fox ended up with the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, and Sony took Spider-Man. As a result, Marvel Studios built its connected universe from 2008 onward without some of its most famous characters. The Hugh Jackman era of X-Men films belonged to Fox, with a separate continuity and no crossovers. That changed in 2019, when Disney closed its $71 billion purchase of 21st Century Fox’s film and television studio. Most coverage framed the deal as a streaming play, but it also brought the X-Men home. Chris sums it up neatly: Disney signed the paperwork in 2019, cast the film in 2026, and audiences see it in 2028. Ryan Gosling’s Starfighter, Ghost Rider, and VisionQuest Lucasfilm dated Star Wars: Starfighter for May 28, 2027. Gosling plays Kade Auberon, a pilot from the wrong side of the galaxy tied to the fastest starfighter ever built. Before he walked out, Disney played clips of him as a kid on The Mickey Mouse Club. Gosling said the company changed his life then and is changing it again now. He is also playing Ghost Rider in the Marvel universe. That thrills Chris, since Nicolas Cage last carried the character on the big screen. Meanwhile, the Disney+ series VisionQuest arrives October 14. Paul Bettany returns as Vision and James Spader as Ultron, and the trailer drops the two androids into oddly mundane human situations. Bettany joked that Vision has “rather inconveniently died several times.” Chris agrees the character has been through the wringer since WandaVision. The Avengers: Doomsday Trailer Avengers: Doomsday opens December 18, with Joe and Anthony Russo directing. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Hayley Atwell introduced the new footage. It offers the clearest look yet at Downey as Doctor Doom, who fights off Thor and takes his hammer. Evans appears as Captain America holding a baby, and Ian McKellen shows up as a haggard, long-haired Magneto. One quieter shot has Doom staring at a portrait of a lost wife and child. That frames him as a grieving avenger rather than a world-ender. He also commands an army of comic-accurate Sentinels. The cast pulls from the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the legacy Fox X-Men, including Patrick Stewart. Hugh Jackman also appeared on screen to say he is willing to return as Wolverine, though that was not a confirmation. Chris, a self-described Marvel nerd, closes with a theory. He suspects the MCU’s Tony Stark was actually Victor von Doom, adopted by the Starks, which would explain the Downey casting. He also predicts the Fox-era X-Men die off in this film and that Thor may be the major casualty. If it happens, he wants credit for calling it.

Disney Parks Around the World Saturday’s Disney Experiences showcase covered parks, resorts, and cruise ships, with Neil Patrick Harris hosting. Hong Kong Disneyland gets an Avengers pavilion that reshapes its Stark Expo skyline. Shanghai Disneyland is building the first land devoted entirely to Spider-Man, complete with a new coaster. Since Spider-Man is his favorite hero, Chris hopes to visit once it opens. Closer to home, Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is doubling in size with two rides opening in 2028. Avengers: Infinity Defense brings back Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Chris Hemsworth, and Downey, while Stark Flight Lab adds Brie Larson. A Coco boat ride into the Land of the Dead is also coming, with no height requirement. Chris admits he prefers California Adventure to Disneyland because the rides are better. Overseas, Disneyland Paris will retire its Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain overlay at the end of 2027 and restore the original Jules Verne theme. Paris also gets the first ride ever based on The Lion King. Tokyo Disneyland adds Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue, the first Wreck-It Ralph ride, plus a Space Mountain launch sequence designed with YouTuber Mark Rober. Finally, Disney Cruise Line announced three more ships, including the Disney Believe in 2027 and an entirely new class in 2029. Back in Anaheim, Tomorrowland is getting reimagined, which Chris welcomes because the land badly needs an update. The Magic Happens parade and the Remember Dreams Come True fireworks are both returning. For the tech crowd, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run now has a Fortnite crossover, where in-game missions unlock content on the real ride. Every New Walt Disney World Ride and Land Chris ranks the Florida parks Hollywood Studios first, then Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom leads the announcements with Villains Land, now the official name. It features a Maleficent coaster through an enchanted briar and a boat ride through the Evil Queen’s catacombs. Reporting puts its scale near Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and Glenn Close appeared in character as Cruella to announce it. Piston Peak, the Cars area replacing Tom Sawyer Island, adds two more rides, though their exact names remain unsettled. Additionally, the Carousel of Progress gets new scenes and a recast. Jamie Lee Curtis and Bryan Cranston will voice Mom and Dad starting late spring 2027. Chris, invoking Heisenberg, calls Cranston the GOAT. At Animal Kingdom, the Indiana Jones ride now has a name: Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent. It tells an original 1950 story inside a Maya temple, and Harrison Ford personally served as the physical model for the animatronic. Nearby, the Tropical Americas land brings Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, with more than fifty animal animatronics and no height requirement. Then comes the fix park regulars have wanted for years. The Expedition Everest yeti broke soon after the ride opened. Rather than fix it, Disney lit it with a strobe for over a decade, earning the nickname disco yeti. Now it is being repaired and returned to full motion. Chris rates Everest among his top five rides anywhere, and he suggests riding it before the fix so you can compare. Over at Epcot, Spaceship Earth gets its first major story rewrite in nearly twenty years, shifting from communication history to human connection. Dreamfinder also returns to Journey Into Imagination, and Disney Experiences chairman Thomas Mazloum introduced that news with two words: “we heard you.” Mazloum added that Disney has more projects underway than at any point in its history. After this rundown, Chris believes him. Monsters Inc Land Opens in 2027 Monstropolis begins opening at Hollywood Studios in early 2027, but in stages. The headline door coaster will not be ready on day one. It is the first suspended coaster in any Disney park. It also uses Disney’s first vertical lift, hauling riders about forty feet straight up before launching them into the door vault. Instead, the land opens with the Glob Theater’s “Welcome to Monstropolis” show and Harryhausen’s, a working sushi restaurant lifted from the first film. The stage show features an original song by Randy Newman, his first ever written for a theme park attraction. Chris also notes that the restaurant name honors stop-motion legend Ray Harryhausen. Wrapping up, Chris names the X-Men casting and the Doomsday trailer as his favorite moments of the weekend.

What if your biggest setback is actually preparing you for your greatest success? In this episode, Dr. Killeen shares the inspiring story of Tenzing Norgay's failed 1952 attempt to summit Mount Everest and the simple phrase that carried him through the toughest moments: ça va bien, or "it's going well." Drawing lessons from the mountain to the dental practice, Dr. Killeen explores why failure is never wasted when you're willing to learn from it. Whether it's a difficult case, a hiring mistake, or a disappointing season in your practice, every challenge leaves behind valuable lessons that make the next attempt stronger. The goal is not to avoid failure, but to keep climbing with a positive attitude and the confidence that every experience is moving you forward.

From a young age, Esther Colwill, a former partner at Deloitte and now country head for Australia at Korn Ferry, dreamt of climbing the highest peaks on each of the seven continents, including, of course, Mount Everest. Colwill succeeded, emerging with critical lessons that have helped her in both her private and professional life. On this week’s episode, BOSS editor Sally Patten finds out how having a goal outside work spurred on this executive’s professional career. This podcast was sponsored by Aussie Broadband.

In this podcast, Josh Phegan and Alexander Phillips talk about the next Everest for Alex as he launches his new Ray White Phillips brand in Woollahra, how this will elevate his business to a new level, why it's important to have an Everest to chase, and how building on his previous achievements will deliver the best experience for everyone involved.

What happens when you go blind at 29,000 feet on Mount Everest?In this episode of Between the Prayer and the Promise, Laneice Leads sits down with Brian Dickinson—former U.S. Navy Aviation Rescue Swimmer, solo Mount Everest summiter, keynote speaker, and author of Blind Descent—to unpack one of the most harrowing survival stories ever told.After summiting Mount Everest alone, Brian's goggles froze, leaving him temporarily blind during his descent in the “Death Zone.” With oxygen dwindling, winds exceeding 50 mph, and no possibility of rescue, he navigated by touch and sound—reversing the Hillary Step and walking a two-foot-wide ridge without sight.But this story goes deeper than survival.We discuss:• Faith under extreme pressure• Psalm 46:10 and the power of stillness• How elite training and spiritual surrender coexist• Survivor's guilt and redefining identity after success• Faith and focus as anchors in crisisIf you're walking through a season where you cannot see your next step—this conversation will ground you.

After nearly seven years and hundreds of conversations, this is the final episode of Without Compromise. To close out the show, I'm joined by Tyler Andrews, who recently set the fastest known time on Mount Everest, reaching the summit in 9 hours, 55 minutes, 43 seconds. Tyler's story felt like the right one to end with: years of pursuing an audacious goal, multiple failed attempts, and ultimately the willingness to change the plan without losing sight of what he was trying to accomplish.We talk about what drives someone to keep coming back after failure, the difference between and similarities of persistence and stubbornness, and what happens when you finally achieve something you've spent years chasing. More broadly, this episode is a chance to reflect on what Without Compromise has been about since its first episode nearly seven years ago: the people willing to pursue difficult things, take risks, and build lives around what matters most to them. Thank you to everyone who has listened, shared an episode, joined a conversation, or supported the show over the years. It has been an incredible run, and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to tell these stories.

Giving up alcohol was harder than box jumping Mount Everest. Here's what nobody tells you about the first two years, and the one skill that makes it stick. I've box jumped the height of Mount Everest. I've pushed a 140kg sled for 24 hours straight. I ran 109 kilometres backwards in a day. None of it came close to putting down a pint. Here's why. From the age of 16, I ran every emotion I had through alcohol. Sad, stressed, bored, celebrating, grieving it all went through the same door for 26 years. So when you stop, you're not giving up a drink. You're rebuilding your entire emotional operating system from scratch, at 40-odd years old, with no instructions. In this podcast, I discuss Why year one feels like something is permanently missing, and why that feeling is accurate rather than a sign you're failingHow you build new evidence: your first holiday, first Christmas, first birthday, first grief, all banked without itDrink dreams, and why your brain keeps writing you a future with alcohol in it that doesn't existThe difference between having a thought and acting on oneWhy a craving passes in 15 to 20 minutes, and what that single fact changes I'm 18 months in. I'm not going to tell you it gets easy, because it didn't. I'll tell you it gets different, and that's better. If you're over 40 and you've been quietly wondering whether the drinking is the thing holding everything else back — this one's for you. If you're struggling with alcohol, please talk to your GP or a support service. There's no medal for doing it on your own.

In 2023, I received a message from a pharmacist who had spent almost 30 years in the same career. Her name was Eilish. She told me she had developed a huge passion for health and fitness after first turning to the gym as a form of therapy during an incredibly difficult period in her life. Her twin boys had been diagnosed with an incurable condition at just six years old, and years later, her brother tragically died descending Mount Everest after reaching the summit. She had been through a lot. And somewhere along the way, training had become far more than exercise. Eilish asked me what I thought about her retraining as a personal trainer. I told her to go for it. A few days later, she'd booked the course. Three weeks later, she messaged me to say how much she loved it. A few months later, she'd passed every exam. And shortly afterwards, after almost three decades as a pharmacist, she took the leap and opened her own boutique gym from a log cabin in her garden, specialising in something she had become deeply passionate about: helping women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond. Going back through those messages before recording this conversation was incredible, because this episode really became a story about two different kinds of strength. The strength required to change your life, and the physical strength we need to protect our lives as we age. We talk honestly about what it takes to walk away from a career that has formed such a huge part of your identity. The fear of failure. Other people's judgement. Financial uncertainty. Self-doubt. And the question we don't ask often enough: we talk endlessly about the cost of changing, but what is the cost of staying exactly where you are? Then we get into women's health. We talk about what actually matters during perimenopause and menopause, why women need to stop allowing this stage of life to define what they're capable of, and the enormous importance of resistance training, protein, movement and properly fuelling the body. We talk about muscle not simply as something that changes how your body looks, but as something that protects your independence, mobility and quality of life as you age. We challenge some of the beliefs that keep women stuck: I'm too old. It's my hormones. I don't have time. Weights will make me bulky. I could never do that. And we talk about what women are often really searching for when they say they want to lose weight. Confidence. Energy. Strength. Freedom. Capability. To feel like themselves again. This is a conversation about menopause and women's health, but it's also about something much bigger. It's about refusing to believe that the life you've lived until now has to dictate the life you live next. Eilish changed careers after almost 30 years. She took something that helped carry her through some of the hardest periods of her life and turned it into something that now helps other women change theirs. So if you're listening feeling stuck in a career, a body, an identity, or simply a version of your life that doesn't feel like you anymore, this episode is for you. You are not too old. It is not too late. And you are absolutely allowed to change your mind about how you want to spend the rest of your life.

A Hamilton man has been selected to coach Team New Zealand at this year's Youth World Karate Championships in Poland later this year.Three athletes from Toatakai Karate will represent the country in October. The problem is he's got to fund his own way there. So, Barney Gill, is getting creative and will climb the equivalent vertical height of Mount Everest on a treadmill next month to raise money for his trip. He spoke to John Campbell.

o achieve the impossible, have a goal that is bigger than you. Giving up is not in the blood. This video is dedicated to one of the greatest mountaineering climbers to ever live, Nirmal "Nimsdai" Purja. "I don't think most people understand the difference between being alive and living the life." - Nirmal PurjaNims Purja was a husband, father, son, brother, friend, special forces veteran, and a leader who inspired millions through his courage, humility and relentless determination. In 2019, he climbed all 14 eight-thousanders – peaks above 8,000 metres or 26,000 feet – in six months and six days with the aid of bottled oxygen (a record that stood for 4 years), and gained international recognition through his Netflix Documentary, Nothing Is Impossible. He continues to hold the record for the fastest ascent of all eight-thousanders without supplementary oxygen at two years and 150 days. He was the first person to reach the summits of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu within 48 hours. In 2021, he and a team of nine other Nepalese climbers completed the first winter ascent of K2. Considered one of the most accomplished climbers of his generation, Purja is widely regarded as a major figure in modern high-altitude mountaineering. Rest in peace Nims, thank you for being an inspiration to millions around the world.We had the great fortune of interviewing Nims in 2025. The Motiversity team is thinking of him and his family.

Holly Budge is a global keynote speaker on risk, innovation, and human potential, operating at the intersection of conservation, science, and bold ideas. As an Everest summiteer and the first woman to skydive Everest, she now focuses less on surviving extremes and more on solving the complex conservation challenges shaping our future.  As founder of international NGO How Many Elephants and World Female Ranger Week, Holly explores how nature, technology, and innovation can work together to design smarter systems, from using bees as bio-engineers to reduce human-elephant conflict in Africa, to empowering women as front-line wildlife rangers. Her work has reached over 500 million people globally, been featured in Forbes, and praised by Sir David Attenborough. In this episode, Holly shares powerful insights from her journey between extreme adventure and global conservation work, including how her definition of risk and purpose has evolved over time. We dive into the real-world impact of wildlife conservation projects, from elephant corridors and bee-based deterrents to the rise of female ranger teams protecting some of the world's most vulnerable ecosystems. Listen to this episode to hear how adventure can become a force for global change, why women are reshaping the future of conservation, and what it takes to turn bold ideas into real-world impact at scale. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Episode 230 of The Adventure Podcast features survival instructor, bushcraft expert, and TV adventurer, Naomi Allsworth. Naomi started as a sportswear fashion designer in London, before pivoting to bushcraft and working alongside Bear Grylls as a survival expert. She talks to Matt about finding her place in the bushcraft world, but also the criticism she has and still receives from some. She also reveals what it was like being cast on survival show, 'Alone', with just three weeks' notice, and how authentic survival TV shows really are. Naomi also opens up about her crippling postpartum depression, and that pushing herself back into wild, uncomfortable places was the only thing that pulled her out. Together they dig into the double standards facing adventurous parents, and they both get candid about the guilt, privilege, and precarious balancing act of a career built on being away. They also touch on Naomi's upcoming unsupported expedition, and representation vs community skepticism. It's an honest, no frills conversation around what it costs to build a career that lives online and away from home, but also what that can give you.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

This week we are bringing you one of our favourite episodes from Season 2. An episode that Nicola and Di recorded at Hamilton Island Race Week where they interviewed a collection of world-class sailors. This week’s episode brings you all 4 of those inspiring chats. First up we talk to Alice Parker - a remarkable 30-year old navigator who’s raced in 4 Sydney to Hobarts, as the only female on an all-male crew, as well as several world championships that have taken her to many different countries. We hear about Alice’s best moment at sea, as well as the most frightening, which happened during one of her Sydney to Hobarts. Not only is Alice an incredible young sailor, she’s also a physiotherapist and is back studying at uni again to upskill in some maths and physics. You’ll want to hear Alice’s answer for who she wants to meet at the back fence because it’s truly beautiful. We then get the chance to chat with Mark Richards, the sailor and boat builder that many listeners would know as the long time skipper of Wild Oats, who has won the Sydney to Hobart a stunning 9 times! We hear the amazing story of how Mark got started in sailing and how he credits it to being adopted by the right people. Mark tells some great stories about his friendship with Bob Oatley, the comradery of the sailing community as well as his greatest achievements and most harrowing moments at sea. Our third conversation is with the dynamic sailor girl Nic Douglass. When you listen in to this chat you’ll hear just how much passion and enthusiasm Nic has for sailing. Having just returned from the Olympics where Nic was part of the team commentating for the crowds on-the-ground in Marseille, we hear how the work she does now and the media company she started actually came after she was at one of her low points when she didn’t qualify for the London Olympics in 2012. Nic is proof that sometimes it’s the low moments in our lives and careers that become turning points and lead to really great opportunities. Finally, we talk to the incredible Stacey Jackson who has sailed in a whopping 16 Sydney to Hobarts and is nowhere near stopping! Not only that but Stacey has also competed in a 9-month round-the-world race not once, but twice including conquering Cape Horn, which is known as the Mt Everest of the sailing world. We hear what it was like the first time Stacey sailed around the world and the most incredible story of how her crew survived after their mast broke shortly after they’d rounded Cape Horn on her second trip around the world. Stacey was also the skipper on Wild Oats when Julie Bishop famously jumped off the back of the boat after the start of the race in Sydney.

Send us Fan MailOne decision on Everest can erase years of work, and Tyler Andrews knows that better than most. After six failed summit pushes and three straight Everest seasons, he finally threads the needle and sets a blistering speed record, then comes home to the weirdest part of any big win: the emotional comedown and the sudden question of “now what?” We talk about what it's like to chase a far-out goal for years, hit it on the last possible day, and then step straight into a new level of attention that reaches far beyond the trail running world. Tyler breaks down why Mount Everest isn't a simple fitness contest. The jet stream shrinks the summit window, crowds turn the route into a bottleneck, and the Khumbu Icefall remains a moving hazard that never really feels routine. We get into the real logistics of a speed attempt: waiting for the right weather, positioning for the end-of-season window, and staying ready when so much is outside your control. Tyler also shares how mentors and time in Nepal helped him build the mountain skills he didn't grow up with, and what he's learned about the culture clash between traditional mountaineering and modern endurance-driven approaches. We also tackle the oxygen vs no oxygen controversy head-on. Tyler explains his original plan, the exact moment safety and wind forced the pivot, and why he thinks both categories are valid but fundamentally different. From there, the conversation goes deep into the performance details that sound like ultrarunning at 29,000 feet: camps as aid stations, fast transitions, fueling around 400 calories per hour with gels and drink mix, and heart rate data that still doesn't fully make sense. We wrap with his hypoxic training setup, blood testing, whether he'll return via the north side, and a quick detour into the Mount Elbert FKT that never got submitted. If you want more Everest speed record detail, altitude acclimatization tactics, and the mindset behind endurance mountain performance, hit subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a rating and review.

From Egypt to Everest to Denali — the story of a woman who climbed the highest peaks on Earth and still couldn't outrun the question: "why aren't you married?"In this episode of the Hikmat Wehbi Podcast, Manal Rostom doesn't talk about summits the way you'd expect. She talks about the bus accident that almost killed her at nineteen, the guilt that pushed her toward God, and the moment on Everest when she asked herself: would I still do this if no one ever found out? She talks about being the only Arab on the mountain, being looked down on by climbers who couldn't believe she belonged, and training at Ski Dubai because that's what she had. And she talks about the thing no one wants to hear — that she's forty-six, single, and happy, and that the world still doesn't know what to do with that.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Every year, thousands of people stand on stages and tell others how to overcome adversity.Jake Thompson is one of them.As a keynote speaker, author, and the voice behind Compete Every Day, Jake has spent years teaching people to embrace discomfort, honor their commitments, and become the kind of person who keeps showing up when things get hard.But there's a big difference between teaching those principles... and living them.Just seven and a half weeks after knee surgery, with business thriving and life going well, Jake chose to do something that made absolutely no sense to most people. He left to participate in 29029 Snowbasin.Thirteen climbs. Almost 30 miles all uphill. Twenty-nine thousand and twenty-nine feet of vertical gain—the height of Mount Everest.And somewhere on those climbs, the speaker became the student.Every ascent came with a perfectly reasonable excuse to quit. Every lap forced him to confront the same lessons he has spent years teaching audiences around the world. Discipline over motivation. Commitment over comfort. Action over excuses.After the event, Jake wrote something in a LinkedIn post that sums up his journey. "My worth was never going to be decided by a red hat or a missed cutoff. Only by what I left in the arena."What happens when life hands you a microphone... and then hands you a mountain?When your message is no longer something you speak, but something you have to prove.

Episode 61 opens with a somber update on the Broad Peak avalanche in Pakistan that killed all ten climbers, including members of Nims Purja's team, on their July 30th summit push.Following the update, Sam and Adrian dig into the episode's real focus: rope fixing, the process that makes the world's biggest mountains climbable.Adrian breaks down the difference between alpine style — climbing a mountain in one unsupported push — and siege style, where teams fix rope from camp to camp so climbers can self-belay on the way up and move quickly on the way down. The practice exploded in scale after the 1996 Everest tragedy, when climbers caught in a whiteout couldn't find their way back to tents just yards away; today, nearly the entire route on Everest, and increasingly all 14 eight-thousanders, is strung with fixed line.He traces how the work gets organized — from the old days of rival companies pooling gear and Sherpa labor, or tossing cash into a pot at Base Camp, to today's more formal systems: China's government-run team on Everest's north side, Nepal's Expedition Operators Association contracting the job out to local companies, and this season's milestone in Pakistan, where an all-Pakistani crew led by Mirzer Ali fixed a new line up Broad Peak's headwall — the first time a major Karakoram peak has been rope-fixed entirely by Pakistani high-altitude workers.Adrian shares his own path into the work, from tunneling through a collapsing cornice on Ama Dablam in the early 2000s to a 2010 rope-fixing day on Everest so calm and untracked he calls it the highlight of his life. He's candid about the risks too: anchors that melt or rip out, old abandoned ropes that fail under body weight, and the 2010 K2 tragedy that killed nine climbers after a serac collapse wiped out the fixed line and left survivors without the gear or skills to downclimb. His takeaway: fixed lines are an extraordinary safety tool, but never one to fully rely on without a backup plan.Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

Donald Trump’s secret Air Force One switch has the media crying foul, while new revelations about Anthony Fauci’s COVID-era communications raise fresh questions about what officials knew about pregnancy and miscarriage risks. Kimmer also tackles Noah’s Ark and Mount Everest, Trump and Iran, the bizarre mystery of a red-dyed cat in Texas, Democrats and their latest controversies, the Luigi Mangione trial, women’s basketball, HCIS with Pete Davis, games, Flounder’s Funny and plenty more from another wild afternoon on The Kimmer Show.

Could the rocks atop Mount Everest tell us anything about Noah’s Flood? Kimmer and the crew dive into the science, the Bible, tectonic plates, fossilized marine life and the big question: If the entire Earth was covered in water, where did all that water go? Plus, Wild Bill calls in with his own theory, the “mountain interns” get discussed, and somehow aliens, Battleship and an underground world enter the conversationSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Democrats’ shifting positions on socialism and taxes, including a Medicare-for-All proposal that would raise taxes on the middle class. Plus, the debate over Mount Everest, Noah’s Ark and the Great Flood, AI and privacy concerns, a canceled beauty queen, and another round of Holy Crap It’s Sports.

In a world obsessed with DIY, YouTube tutorials, and learning everything ourselves, navigating the depths of our own minds can land us not knowing where to start or how to practice. In this episode of Buddhism for Everyone, JoAnn Fox breaks down a foundational practice in Tibetan Buddhism: Relying on a Spiritual Teacher. Far from checking your brain at the door or surrendering your autonomy, relying on a spiritual guide is like hiring an experienced mountain guide before attempting to summit Everest. Having a teacher is genuinely a life-hack that saves you years of trial and error. In this episode, JoAnn explores: What Reliance Really Means: Why healthy devotion isn't about personality worship, but cultivating internal respect, admiration, and gratitude for someone's kindness. The 10 Qualities Checklist: The traditional criteria to evaluate potential teachers (from mental discipline and deep compassion to resilience and mastery of wisdom). The Highest Offering: Why material gifts mean very little compared to the ultimate gift you can offer your teacher, which is to put their teachings into practice. Your increasing happiness is the best offering. Whether you're actively searching for a mentor or looking to deepen your relationship with the teachings you've already received, join JoAnn for a practical, warm, and heart-opening discussion on stepping off the "DIY treadmill" and walking the path with clarity. "The actual reliance on a spiritual teacher is done through the cultivation of certain thoughts, particularly faith, admiration, and respect based on the recognition of your teacher's great kindness." "The best way of making an offering to your teacher is to practice what you've been taught." --Dalai Lama, from Illuminating the Path to Enlightenment  Resources:  The Fourteenth Dalai Lama (2002).

Paul, Jon, and Liz continue their study of how Jesus lives in the world and what we can learn from him about living as God intended for us to live. "Because God loves me so much and has the best in mind for me no matter what, then I want to do what he says. When the Circle of Love is working, it is a beautiful love relationship. For example, a husband loves his wife, and then she loves her husband. You can't tell where it begins, even on any given day. It's a continuous thing, but it always begins with one person. For us as believers, at the heart of it is the Father's love for me in Christ." "Romans 8 is Paul's Mount Everest. It's just magnificent. And it's all on our reception of God's love for us. Because input love, that's faith, comes before output love." "Think of this as the Circle of Love: 'And this is love, not that we love God, but that he loved us and gave himself for us as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.' We couldn't begin with our own love. We have to begin with our Father's love for us."

Become a Supporter of The Real Science of Sport, and you get ad-free listening, an Applied Science bonus show every week, plus a seat at the best conversation in sport. All for less than a decent gel.Show notesJosh Kerr, the Commonwealth Games, a stitch explained, the Tour de France Femmes, and yet another South African schoolboy rugby doping ban. In today's show:(00:00:38) We joked before Glasgow that this might be the last Commonwealth Games we ever see, and we were wrong. They survived in a cut-down, ten sport form, with India in 2030 and interest from Nigeria and New Zealand for 2034. We debate whether a smaller, cheaper games is actually the point rather than the problem, and what it means that the BBC's sub-one-million-pound bid was rejected, leaving Josh Kerr's mile watched by 200,000 people when Eilish McColgan's 10,000m in 2022 drew six million.(00:02:37) The performances, including Emmanuel Eseme of Cameroon running 9.83 in apocalyptic rain, three women under 11 seconds, and Josh Kerr's utterly dominant 3:54 mile off a jogged first kilometre. With the fastest mile in history relative to his peers and a devastating kick, how does anyone actually beat him now, and will the 1500m world record follow? Kerr says he is flying a little close to the sun, and we explain why staying in world record shape is like sitting in the death zone on Everest.(00:24:13) Laura Muir crossed the line 16th and collapsed after a stitch at 3km, so what actually causes one? We go through exercise related transient abdominal pain, the old diaphragmatic ischaemia theory, the newer parietal peritoneum irritation explanation, why shoulder tip pain is referred pain, and the risk factors including drinking before you run, being younger, being female, and having weaker trunk muscles.(00:33:56) Ingebrigtsen returns at the Euros over 5000m off two disrupted seasons and Achilles surgery, and we're not sure it'll be the comeback people hope for.(00:44:52) The Tour de France Femmes is brewing into a genuinely great race, with time gaps after the time-trial necessitating attacking racing as the Tour heads into its hilly and mountain stages. Niewiadoma and Ferrand-Prevot in particular need to claw back big time, while Reuser defends and Vollering waits ominously in pole-position. Instead the world's media is writing about padded bras. Why does cycling always shoot itself in the foot, and why is it a headline for the women when it was an incidental for the men?(00:47:40) Tadej Pogačar's estimated VO2max of over 100 is doing the rounds, using exactly the methods Ross was hammered for using on Contador and Froome fifteen years ago. We explain the modelling, why assumptions can spit out anything between 85 and 101, and what that means for comparing Pogačar to Pantani on Alpe d'Huez.(00:55:56) The full Markéta Vondroušová decision is out, and it reads very differently to the version that had tennis players outraged. Plus a hard look at South African schools rugby, where Deon Botes is the third schoolboy banned in months, this time for a supplement his father allegedly bought for cash from a stranger outside a pharmacy with "ultimate test booster" on the box.(01:12:47) Jannik Sinner walks away from a potential clean sweep of the Masters events to play less tennis before the US Open, while Carlos Alcaraz withdraws from Cincinnati and extends a wrist injury layoff that has now cost him May, June, July, and half of August. Two very different answers to the same question, and one that echoes Josh Kerr's approach to racing.(01:15:00) And finally, an update on Anna's ride around Australia. Nine days, 976km, 7,940m of climbing, one chain change, and three magpie attacks. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"Imagine finishing your work week on Friday, flying to Nepal, summiting Mount Everest — and being back at your desk by the following Monday. Håkon and Hanne Hyttedalen are Norwegian consultants. They work full-time in corporate Oslo. And they have also won ultra trail races, run the UTMB around Mont Blanc, completed a 160-kilometer mountain race in a blizzard with a 77% DNF rate — and this May, they stood on the summit of the highest point on Earth. Together. As a married couple. Today we're getting into exactly how they do it — how they train two hours a day without burning out, what it feels like to nearly not make it off a mountain, and whether any of this is actually accessible to the rest of us.

What happens when your body suddenly decides to stop making the exact hormone that keeps you alive? Meet Sarah, a badass who trains in Muay Thai, manages ADHD and C-PTSD, and spent months wondering why climbing a single flight of stairs felt like summiting Everest. Before a life-threatening crash landed her in the hospital with a cortisol level of "less than one," Sarah was taking straight shots of soy sauce out of the fridge, dumping salt into her morning water, and getting told by urgent care doctors that her slurred words and sudden vomiting were probably just a "depressive episode." Sarah sits down with the fellas to break down the reality of living with Addison's Disease and how an autoimmune diagnosis forced her into her "Year of Ease"—learning to drop the hustle culture, stop feeling guilty about relaxing on the couch, and give herself permission to slow down. It's raw, messy, deeply relatable, and a vital reminder to advocate fiercely for your own health.

Most people think success comes from never giving up. But sometimes the smartest decision is knowing when to walk away from the wrong opportunity so you can invest your time, energy, and resources where they matter most. In this episode, Annie Duke explains why quitting isn't the opposite of grit—it's an essential part of making better decisions. AJ and Johnny sit down with decision-making expert and former professional poker player Annie Duke to unpack the psychology behind quitting, expected value, sunk cost fallacy, goal-setting, and the biases that keep us stuck. Through stories about Everest expeditions, entrepreneurship, investing, and professional sports, Annie reveals how successful people know when to persist, when to pivot, and how to avoid letting emotions override good judgment. If you've ever stayed in a job, relationship, or project longer than you should because of the time or effort you've already invested, this conversation will give you practical tools to recognize hidden biases, make clearer decisions under uncertainty, and confidently move toward better opportunities.
