In this episode of #TFTT, Kenton heads to the Italian alps with @RebeccaLouiseFitness and her partner @Luke_Wren. Rebecca is climbing Everest with Kenton in the Spring, so this probably isn't the last time you'll hear from her on Cool Conversations.

First and foremost, Becks is a mother to five (mostly - her words not ours!) wonderful children. An endurance athlete and lover of adventure, her love of sport has taken her around the globe competing in some of the most difficult races. In recent years, she has taken her love of the extreme a little higher and attempted to climb numerous big mountains. Find out what drives Becks in this episode of Cool Conversations. Becks is @becksferry on Instagram and Kenton is @kentoncool.

It's the first Coolaboration of 2022, and we had lots to catch up on.

In this episode, we talk about Kenton's recent trip to South Africa, his time in the Alps this winter, and DC's training program. Plus, we talk theatre, podcasts we are listening to and the books we're reading. Kenton also shares his plans for #Everest16.

What do Andy and Kenton talk about? Here's part of the write up from the Leathwaite podcast page:

"Kenton brings his truly unique perspective on the human condition. He shines a light on how to achieve success. Whether you’re on the side of a mountain or in the board room.

How his relatively humble upbringing influenced his outlook on life and inspired his love of the outdoors.

Why small failures are a vital part of any journey, whether you’re climbing mountains or carving out your career.

And, how to lead people effectively in risky environments when panic sets in."

Thanks for having us Andy!
