Text the show!

Woody Hartman wasn’t expecting to climb Mount Everest in 2019, but sometimes life takes some exciting turns and before you know it, you’re doing something you never thought you would.

On this episode, we dive into how Woody found himself on the summit of Everest, what it took to get there, and what it all means now that it’s over. This is no doubt one of my favorite conversations because Woody is about as grounded as they come and allows us to peer into how he’s learned to adapt to changing life circumstances. He also walks us through his journey through how he learned to be comfortable being uncomfortable and why it’s so important to dream bit, take risks, and use our goals as a catalyst for other adventures and life situations.

You’ll love this episode with Woody!
