Aaron Bethune lives his life. Musician. Writer. Strategist. Mountaineer. Seeker. Philosopher. Promoter and Publisher. His approach is one we can all learn from. So many words of wisdom to take away: 'I like to get to the corner to see what's next before deciding to go forward or change lanes.' Or Success is not always the award, the applause, or even the destination. Sometimes success is freedom. Sometimes it is presence, being in the present. I hope you take away as much as I did from Aaron Bethune.

#487 Antonina Samoilova, Record Breaking Ukrainian Mountaineer on Fear, Mentality, and Her Journey to Scale the World's 14 Highest Peaks

Antonina "Tonya" Samoilova (@tonya.samoilova) ) is a record-setting Ukrainian mountaineer and alpinist known for scaling the world's most formidable peaks while raising global awareness for her homeland. She began her high-altitude mountaineering journey relatively recently in 2018, starting with Mount Kilimanjaro, and quickly transformed into one of Ukraine's most prominent endurance athletes. She is the first Ukrainian mountaineer in history to conquer the five highest mountain peaks in the world—Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse, and Makalu, and the first Ukrainian woman to summit Mount Everest three times (2022, 2023, and 2024). In May 2024, she completed a rare double-header by summiting Everest and Lhotse within 24 hours, setting a national speed record for a female climber. During her 2025 ascent of Kangchenjunga—the world's third-highest peak—she survived running out of supplemental air 200 meters from the summit, pushing through 20 harrowing minutes without oxygen at 8,400 meters. Samoilova uses her global platforms and extreme ascents to act as a prominent voice for Ukraine. In 2022, she was the only climber from Ukraine to unfurl her country's flag at the summit of Everest, broadcasting a message to "Stand with Ukraine". In 2023, she made international headlines by capturing the world's first drone footage from the summit of Everest alongside the Ukrainian flag. She frequently uses her expeditions to raise funds for Ukraine's Armed Forces and volunteer medical battalions, often dedicating her dangerous ascents to fallen Ukrainian defenders and her own family serving on the front lines.   Connect with Tonya: https://www.antoninasamoilova.com/ CAPTAIN: THE ATHLETE'S GUIDE TO BEING AN EXCEPTIONAL TEAM LEADER is now live on Amazon!  CLICK HERE TO ORDER We are constantly asked "where have all the leaders gone?"

Monday was a record-setting day for the WVU women's basketball program—and the Mountaineers didn't even step on the court. More than 11,000 tickets were sold for West Virginia's opening round NCAA Tournament game at Hope Coliseum, forcing the athletic department to temporarily pause sales. A sellout for Saturday's matchup with Miami (Ohio) is now within reach. In this episode, the “Guys” welcome two key members of the Mountaineers into the studio. Senior standouts Jordan Harrison and Sydney Shaw reflect on their season, their careers in Morgantown, and what it means to host NCAA Tournament basketball at home. The talented tandem also answers a series of fun and insightful questions that reveal a side of the players Mountaineer fans don't always get to see. 3 Guys returns Thursday with a full preview of Saturday's NCAA Tournament game and a look ahead to the upcoming College Basketball Crown tournament involving the WVU men's team.
