For generations, Sherpas have been highly sought-after guides for international clients intent on making the world's most difficult climbs. Aakash Hassan reports on one teenage Sherpa, the youngest ever to summit the world's 14 mountains higher than 8,000 meters, and his role as a model and a trailblazer for other young people. Also: today's stories, including the growing use Ukrainian instead of Russian in Ukraine's “growing up” as a nation, two U.S. Supreme Court education cases this month that could profoundly change America's public schooling system, and how Gaza's journalists are balancing reporting on the war and surviving it.

The Sherpas Podcast has been around since 2017, and we've had the privilege of interviewing dozens of amazing youth pastors and legends over the years. So it was nice to have the tables turn toward us for a change. We were invited to be guests on the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast with Eric Miller. Brock couldn't make it, but Shannon and Steve had a great conversation about why we love youth ministry, youth pastors, and students. We thought we'd share it here just for fun.

In this special Shortcast edition, Jeremy Kubicek, author of The 100X Leader: How to Become Someone Worth Following, shares how we can lead with both support and challenge to help others reach their full potential. Drawing inspiration from Sherpas guiding climbers on Mount Everest, Jeremy illustrates what it means to lead others by being fully for them and helping them succeed—not just in tasks, but in personal growth. In this Shortcast, we explore: What Makes a Leader Worth Following: Why being “for” the people you lead matters more than authority or performance. The Sherpa Analogy: Leaders should guide, support, and empower others like a Sherpa helps climbers summit Mount Everest—and then helps them down again. Support + Challenge = Growth: Jeremy outlines how to calibrate the right mix of support and challenge in your leadership style to avoid extremes like fear-based or overly permissive leadership. Calling Up vs. Calling Out: A key leadership shift is learning to call people up to who they want to be, rather than calling them out with shame or frustration. From Subjective to Constructive Feedback: How shifting from judgment to objective, prescriptive feedback builds trust and lasting influence. Whether you're managing a team, parenting, or looking to grow personally, this episode offers simple but powerful strategies to lead with empathy, clarity, and effectiveness.

Auf 8.848 Meter, und zwar schnell. Expeditionsveranstalter Lukas Furtenbach will mit seiner Firma Everest-Besteigungen in nur einer Woche möglich machen. Mit Helikopter-Shuttle, Flaschensauerstoff, zwei Sherpas pro Person - und einem umstrittenen Mittel: Xenon-Gas zur Turbo-Akklimatisierung. Ist das gefährlich? Darf man das? Und wo bleibt dabei das Abenteuer?
Earlier this year, the Bears Ears Resource Management Plan dropped, outlining rules regarding camping, waste management, dogs, and, perhaps most controversially, fixed anchors for new routes across the monument, which includes, of course, Indian Creek. Jason Keith is a senior policy advisor at the Access Fund who has spent his career navigating the legal and relational fog of securing access for climbers across the country. He was deeply involved in the development of this plan and talks to us today about what it means for climbers today—and everyone going forward amid the uncertainty and chaos of the current administration. But first, we talk about favorite mountain on earth, Everest, and why it's a such a slippery slope. Drones are coming for Sherpa jobs, but our hot take on this development might surprise you. Our Final Bit is the Golden Shoals, a fiddle and guitar duo featuring Mark Kilianski and rock climber Amy Alvey. Check out the Show Notes for tour dates, website, and more!

Food for Thought: Cancer, Calories, and Kicking AssVanessa Rissetto is back, and she's bringing the same energy, wit, and unapologetic realness that made her a fan favorite. Last time, we talked nutrition and the rise of Culina Health. This time, life threw her a plot twist—breast cancer. Because, you know, irony.Vanessa was busy building a nutrition empire when she got diagnosed. So, naturally, she texted, “WTF do I do now?” to her closest cancer Sherpas—yours truly included. Spoiler alert: She powered through, beat cancer, and kept scaling Culina Health to new heights.We get into it all—being a cancer patient when you're supposed to be the health expert, the emotional whiplash of survivorship, the absolute clown show that is American food regulation, and why European Oreos are apparently less cancerous than ours. Also, parenting, loneliness, and why the healthcare system still makes zero sense.Get ready for a wild ride of truth bombs, wisdom, and laughter with one of the sharpest voices in nutrition and entrepreneurship.RELATED LINKSVanessa on LinkedInCulina HealthVanessa's WebsiteVanessa's Story on HLTHVanessa on Breast Cancer - TODAYWhat Vanessa Learned About Food After CancerDaily Mail: Vanessa on an Unexpected SymptomSurvivorNet: Vanessa on Nutrition and CancerFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Sherpa Training #RTTBROS #Nightlight "Called to be a Sherpa" "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." - Hebrews 4:15 (KJV) High in the Himalayas, Sherpas guide climbers through treacherous paths they've traversed countless times before. Born and raised in the shadow of Mount Everest, their bodies have adapted to the thin air that leaves others gasping. These remarkable guides don't just climb for personal glory – they climb to lead others safely through dangers they've already mastered. How often do we question God when facing our own personal Everests? We see only the harsh winds of trial, the biting cold of adversity, and the treacherous crevasses of doubt. Yet our Lord, in His infinite wisdom, may be preparing us not merely to reach the summit, but to become spiritual Sherpas for others who will face similar climbs. Just as Christ Himself descended into human flesh to experience our struggles, He allows us to traverse difficult paths not only for our own growth but so we might guide others through similar valleys. The apostle Paul understood this when he wrote, "Blessed be God, even the Father of our mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God." (2 Corinthians 1:3-4 KJV) Like the Sherpa's lungs that have adapted to thin mountain air, our spirits grow stronger through each trial. The darkness we've walked through becomes a lamp for others, our stumbles become wisdom to share, and our victories become testimonies of God's faithfulness. The mountain didn't just make us stronger – it equipped us to guide others home. Prayer: Heavenly Father, help us see our trials not just as personal mountains to climb, but as training grounds to become guides for others. Give us the wisdom to use our experiences to light the way for those who follow. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Meu convidado de hoje cresceu cercado por boas oportunidades e descobriu cedo seu fascínio pelos esportes e pelo mundo além das fronteiras convencionais. Dotado de uma curiosidade inata, explorou diferentes modalidades, navegando pelos mares como velejador e buscando a precisão nas quadras como tenista. No entanto, foi o triathlon que capturou seu coração e transformou sua trajetória. Ao decidir se aprofundar nesse universo, ele não hesitou em cruzar o continente para se estabelecer em San Diego, o berço da modalidade. A cidade não apenas moldou sua visão sobre o esporte, mas também despertou um senso de inovação e empreendedorismo que se tornaria a marca de sua carreira. Durante seu período lá, ele não apenas treinou e competiu, mas também mergulhou no mercado esportivo ao conseguir um estágio na revista Triathlete. Essa experiência seria o ponto de partida para algo maior. Observador e criativo, percebeu o potencial do meio digital, que ganhava tração nos anos 90, e idealizou uma plataforma pioneira para divulgação e inscrições de provas nos EUA. Alguns anos depois, já de volta ao Brasil, adaptou a ideia e criou o ativo.com, um marco no setor esportivo digital nacional. Durante mais de uma década, ele liderou o projeto, consolidando-o como referência no mercado. Seu espírito inquieto e inovador o levou a novas experiências profissionais, incluindo uma passagem importante na organização do Ironman Brasil. Mas a busca por autenticidade o trouxe de volta a San Diego, dessa vez com sua esposa e filho. Inspirado por sua paixão pelo esporte e pelas viagens, ele fundou a 7 Sherpas, uma agência de turismo esportivo feita sob medida, capaz de transformar desafios em experiências memoráveis. Há dois anos, ele criou uma start-up que conecta esportistas de qualquer modalidade no mundo todo. Hoje, ele voltou a se dedicar exclusivamente à sua agência e está sempre em busca de oportunidades no meio esportivo. Conosco aqui, pela terceira vez, o administrador e empreendedor visionário, apaixonado pelo mundo outdoor, pela fotografia e pelas experiências que o esporte proporciona, tenista veterano e triatleta com três participações no Mundial de Ironman no Havaí, o paulistano minimalista Hans Christian Kittler.

Le soutien scolaire est l'un des services les plus plébiscités en France dans le domaine de l'éducation. Qui d'entre nous n'a pas, à un moment ou un autre, été aidé par un ami, un membre de la famille, ou un organisme spécialisé pour progresser dans une matière ou découvrir de nouvelles techniques d'apprentissage lors de sa scolarité ?En France, le soutien scolaire prend de nombreuses formes. Aujourd'hui, j'ai eu la chance de rencontrer l'un des jeunes entrepreneurs les plus dynamiques de ce secteur : Étienne Porche. En 2017, avec son ami William, Étienne s'est lancé dans l'aventure audacieuse de réinventer le soutien scolaire en créant Les Sherpas. Dans cet épisode, nous avons exploré les particularités du marché du soutien scolaire en France, ainsi que les idées reçues propres à ce secteur. Nous avons bien sûr discuté de l'aventure entrepreneuriale des Sherpas. Enfin, Étienne nous a partagé ses conseils pour accompagner les enfants dans leurs devoirs, mais aussi dans leur orientation scolaire.Cet épisode de podcast est soutenu par Les Sherpas.Ressources :https://sherpas.com/Hébergé par Ausha.

Recent allegations against Sean "Diddy" Combs include claims that he compelled employees to transport illegal substances, such as "tusi" (a colloquial term for certain designer drugs). Former staff members assert that Combs mandated these actions as part of their job duties, creating a work environment where drug distribution was normalized. Refusal to comply reportedly led to intimidation, threats of termination, or other forms of retaliation, fostering a culture of fear and complicity among employees.These accusations suggest a pattern of behavior where Combs allegedly used his authority to exploit employees, involving them in unlawful activities against their will. Such practices not only violated legal and ethical standards but also contributed to a toxic workplace atmosphere. Combs' legal team has denied these claims, labeling them as baseless attempts to damage his reputation..Meanwhile, his number one alleged "Mule" Brendan Paul, has already been arrested.

At just 18 years old, Nima Rinji Sherpa has etched his name in history as the youngest person in the world to summit all 14 of the planet's eight-thousanders—mountain peaks towering over 8,000 meters.

The Israeli military has carried out extensive raids overnight in several areas of the occupied West Bank. At least nine Palestinians were killed. Also, since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, they've made it more difficult for women and girls to get any kind of formal education. But some bold activists are still taking big risks to run secret schools for girls. And, the sporting world is once again setting its sights on Paris. This time, the 2024 Summer Paralympics kicking off with an opening ceremony along the Champs-Elysees. Plus, for years, local Sherpas and volunteers have been clearing trash from Mount Everest, which is arduous and exhausting and even deadly. Come autumn, Nepal will deploy drones to help carry the load. Listen to today's Music Heard on Air.
Email: 2020@exhostage.com Neville Goddard said always be investing. Always be investing your time, your money, your imaginal act. Just might be a great way of life. Do you get this is an investment? It's an investment of time. I'm investing time, you're investing time. Taking the time to listen, even taking the time to share. Invite someone else to invest their time instead of spending it. I got a message from a new friend on Facebook. "I thought this was funny", they said. "I thought this was funny." and they sent me something. And it was only a minute, so I gave it a look. Because it's a new friend, I want to find out... What's the quality. And they just sent me something dumb. And they got back to me three days later, they watched it. I said, well, three days. I gotta ask, "why'd it take so long?" They said, "Well, I just never got around to it." You see, never getting around to living your life happens whenever you're distraction driven. You just don't get around to doing what matters. And then what matters never shows up in your life. This podcast matters to me. I'm assuming it matters to you because you're listening. Always be investing. So I got a guy who wants to build a business. I said, cool. Went back and forth, told him a couple of products that I think might help him out with based on what he's telling me. He asked about one on ones. I told him, he goes, "I can't afford that". I said, "then just get the products right now". He goes, "I can't afford that." I get it. So I told him, "Sell something". So years ago, I got into the habit of paying for Sherpas. Yeah, this is gonna be a crass commercial, too. But I want you to think about this. When you pay for a Sherpa, you know what a Sherpa is? A Sherpa is the one who guides you... up the mountain. The Sherpa sizes you up, the Sherpa sizes the weather up, the Sherpa's been up and down the mountain many times. The Sherpa knows what path to take right now and what path not to take right now, based on the weather, based on you. And the Sherpa makes a difference. Often the Sherpa's just a little seeming guy that ends up carrying most of your shit. But I seem to digress. Because we need Sherpas. And I find that I pay Sherpas any chance I get. Because if they've climbed a mountain that I'm climbing, I don't expect them to carry me. But I can tell you, if they say, hey, you might want to take this path versus that path. Or you might want to play with it this way. Make sure you put on your mittens. It's these little tiny seeming things. Always be investing. And I invite you to excellence. I invite you to discover your excellency instead of your, instead of your excusefulness, because you actually came here to be king of the kingdom. And that doesn't happen until you move into the state of your excellency. Never, never, never, never, never settle for anything less than excellent. So Steve steps outside for a smoke. And everybody eagerly awaits his return. Because when Steve steps out for a smoke, it's an investment. He steps outside, he opens up, and he waits. He waits for the goodies to show up. On the other hand, Bob bungles. Bob goes out for a smoke, and bitches. Bitchin Bob goes outside for a smoke. He's spending his time while smoking a cigarette. Steve's investing it. And when Steve returns to the room, my God, everybody's in eager anticipation. What did he discover? How did he dance? On the other hand, Bob, when he returns to the room, that's all I gotta say.
Jelle Veyt takes a brief break from his human-powered expedition of climbing the Seven Summits to join Doc in the studio to talk about his adventures. Settle in and buckle up as Jelle discusses both his incredible life journey as well as his journey to become the first person to ever get to and climb the highest peak on each continent by human power. During this incredible conversation, Jelle covers a lot of ground, including living on the streets for three years as a teenager, being made fun of by Sherpas, pitching his hammock just high enough to avoid the crocodiles, a 40 below cycle through Alaska, rowing while puking for 16 days, and just how much world context he has gained as he has traveled to and summitted five of the seven peaks so far. Jelle also shares his plans for getting to the last two summits, Aconcagua (South America) and Vinson Massif (Antarctica!). Epic. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

(Aired July 18, 2024) DomainSherpa – Down The Rabbit Hole – July 18, 2024: Passport to Earn As we say on DomainSherpa - all roads lead to domains. And our work with domains has us venturing "down the rabbit hole" into different topics all the time. So this is a tech-adjacent, digital asset, pop-culture, tangent-positive monthly podcast - with some domains stuff thrown into the mix for good measure. In this episode, JT is joined by Drew and special guest Hugo McDonaugh, co-founder and CEO of GBM Auctions, a bid-to-earn platform where the bidders are incentivized to bid on an asset. When a new bid is placed, the GBM formula calculates how much money that bidder will earn if they are outbid. Every bidder that gets outbid earns an incentive, and the highest bidder at the end of the auction wins, with the seller receiving what is left in the pot. Together, the Sherpas get into how GBM Auctions work and some exciting and groundbreaking things happening with GBM. The Sherpas also discuss how GBM Auctions are now being applied to domain names at GBM.domains, including a few premium domain names being put up for auction by Drew starting this week and running through July 25th. BrickWeed(com) ChainChoice(com) GetBlazed(com) HigherCaliber(com) NiceRides(com) Synopsis(co) Trippy(co) The Sherpas also cover the crypto onboarding for the GBM Auction platform in this special episode, so tune in and jump down the rabbit hole!

Sam and Adrian are joined by author Will Cockrell to discuss his new book titled "Everest Inc." Will, who has covered the Mt Everest climbing season as a journalist for nearly 2 decades, chronicles the development of an industry that, each spring, becomes a focal point of the outdoor media.Everest Inc.: The Renegades and Rogues Who Built an Industry at the Top of the WorldFeaturing original interviews with mountain guides and climbers—including Jimmy Chin and Conrad Anker—this vivid and authoritative adventure history chronicles one of the least likely industries on guided climbing on Mount Everest.Anyone who has read Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air or has seen a recent photo of climbers standing in line to get to the top of Everest may think they have the mountain pretty well figured out. It's an extreme landscape where bad weather and incredible altitude can occasionally kill, but more so an overcrowded, trashed-out recreation destination where rich clients pad their egos—and social media feeds—while exploiting local Sherpas.There's some truth to these clichés, but they're a sliver of the story. Unlike any book to date, Everest, Inc. gets to the heart of the mountain through the definitive story of its greatest the Himalayan guiding industry. It all began in the 1980s with a few boot-strapping entrepreneurs who paired raw courage and naked ambition with a new style of expedition planning. Many of them are still living and climbing today, and as a result of their astonishing success, ninety percent of the people now on Everest are clients or employees of guided expeditions.Studded with quotes from original interviews with more than a hundred western and Sherpa climbers, clients, writers, filmmakers, and even a Hollywood actor, Everest, Inc. foregrounds the voices of the people who have made the mountain what it is today. And while there is plenty of high-altitude drama in unpacking the last forty years of Everest tragedy and triumph, it ultimately transcends stereotypes and tells the uplifting counternarrative of the army of journeymen and women who have made people's dreams come true, and of the Nepalis who are pushing the industry into the future.

Fellow dads, Clayton Greene, and one of our favorite "Sherpas", Arthur Tew, are here with a special bonus episode this week! Arthur is part of Sherpa Collaborative, a small business accelerator that is has been instrumental in GoodKind as you know it, and all the products we make! Arthur brings alignment and insight to everything we're about, and as he and Clayton began talking about shifts they were making in their schedules this summer, we decided to throw a mic in front of them so that we could share the conversation with you too! We hope it's encouraging and helpful, and also a fun behind-the-scenes look at what some of our daily interactions look like! Top 5 Dad Shifts For Summer Take evening walks. They're great for open-ended conversation! Don't have a plan, just take advantage of the extra sunlight, get out there, and get your wiggles out. Change the location and type of breakfast. Invite conversation and give connection in the morning. Those moments really frame the day for family intimacy. Try competitive sweating. Yes, sweating. Get outside and get some exercise. Work hard and work up a good sweat. It's fun if the kids join in, too. See if you can keep up! Take some "pool afternoons". Leave early on a week day and do a cannonball, already. It is a little bit of extra fun and is incredibly meaningful for everyone involved. Allow for late bedtimes, but don't lose adult time. If your kids are old enough, have them do their bedtime independently. As long as they stay in the room (and stay quiet) then all is well. Give the adults some time to talk and straighten up and be quiet themselves. Bonus Challenge: Try a dad camp. Take a few day (3 - 5) and make a daily schedule that looks a lot like camp. Don't over schedule. Leave space for quiet time, reading, pool, and a strict lights out. Every vacation day away from work doesn't have to be spent on the road traveling.

Everest 2024 might be remembered for summits, politics, deaths, ignored rules, near misses and disturbing allegations of sexual misconduct. It's difficult to put all this in a headline, but I believe the Everest guiding industry is at a Rubicon - a point of no return. Not to be lost in this mix is the joy and satisfaction felt by hundreds of summiteers. They worked and trained diligently to celebrate standing on the top of the world for only a few minutes. It's funny how you can work so long for a goal, and the moment is over in a blink, but the memory lasts a lifetime—well done to all who summited, to those who showed up. Once again, the Sherpas proved they dominated the mountain with impressive altitude performance. The Himalayan Database shows that between 1950 and 2023, 6,097 Sherpas have summited Everest compared to 5,899 members, and that gap is growing each year. However, more foreigners have died than Sherpas, 197 compared to 118. #everest2024 Climb On!

Everest's summit is slammed by hurricane-force winds, causing most teams to hunker down or pause rotations for a few days. However, the fixed ropes have reached the South Col. China confirms it will open the Nepal border on May 7th. This season will go down as all dressed up and nowhere to go - on both sides. First, on the Nepal side, as of the end of April, many teams have historically completed their rotations and are going into wait mode for the ropes to reach the summit. However, it appears that only a few have completed a meaningful amount of time this year at Camp 2. A few have tagged Camp 3, but almost no team spent the night at 7000 meters. To be fair, in recent years, many teams have dropped this difficult acclimatization at C3 in favor of using copious amounts of supplemental oxygen starting lower at Camp 2. Many teams have wrapped up their climbs on Mera, Island or Lobuche as an acclimatization activity instead of going through the Icefall one more time. These teams are returning to EBC and will make only one rotation to C2 before calling it good. Those in a rush—Flash/Speed/Rapid/Quick/Speed/Rabbit—whatever—will only go through the Icefall once on their summit push. Sherpas from Seven Summits Treks have the fixed ropes to the South Col. With the ten-day delay in fixing the Icefall; the Nepal government approved a plan to use helicopters to fly more gear to Camp 2 to fix the route to the summit. This is not unprecedented. On April 23, 2016, summit rope fixing gear (rope, anchors, oxygen for the Sherpas above the South Col) was long-lined to Camp 1 by helicopters - all approved by the Government. It took six trips by helicopter plus a spotter in a separate helicopter to deliver the gear. No climbers or Sherpas were transported. This saved 87 Sherpa loads and potentially lives if there were another serac release or other natural disaster in the Icefall. This was a good move then, as it is today. So, while it feels slower than usual, the teams are making the best of it. So, if the ropes reach the summit by May 10, as advertised, we can expect the usual flood of summit waves to follow quickly. First will be the super large teams like the 100s from Seven Summits Treks and many other Nepali-run teams. The Western teams will patiently wait at EBC for them to kick in steps, clear out and then take their turn. Finally, we'll see the uber–patient teams make their summit push, targeting May 19–22. Again, all of this depends on the weather. Adrian Ballinger of Alpenglow says, "Just FYI, we got our Tibet invites and official word of the May 7 border opening. Locked and loaded!" They will cross the border along with climbers with Climbalaya and Furtenbach. However, another commercial team has given up on climbing Everest from the Tibetan side. Makalu Extreme joined Adventure Peaks, Kobler & Partner, and Arnold Coster to switch to the Nepal side. Makalu Extreme posted this update revealing their frustration: Not much news from the Everest 2024 climb from the Makalu Extreme team. Today our guide Dorchy and our member Pavel are in Goraksher. Work on setting up the Base Camp will begin tomorrow. I would like to remind you that our team and two tons of expedition cargo urgently left Kathmandu on April 26. The expedition was urgently shifted to Nepal due to the negligence of the Chinese authorities. EverestEr reports in with their treatment Talley: As of April 29, Nepal has issued 390 climbing permits for Everest to 37 teams representing 60 countries. The United States has the most climbers, with 70, followed by China with 65.

Harper unclipped her 'biner while keeping the jumar attached. Harper reached around him to clip the 'biner back onto the rope ahead of him. He stood still not wanting to make any movement that might throw both of them off balance. Harper took a few small steps around him and reached back to unclip the jumar. Now successfully past, Harper reattached the jumar and continued climbing higher." Climb On!

This is the late April Everest 2024 Weekend Update. The headlines are significantly more positive than last weekend: Permits are a bit higher, which is good for the local economy but not so good for the mountain. The fixed ropes, aka the route, are all the way to Camp 2, thus opening the path for Sherpas to establish the upper camps and for clients to begin acclimatizing. #everest2024 Climb On!
