During a couple of business trips to Africa, Gary Ervin was introduced to Mt. Kilimanjaro. He felt drawn to climbing it for a reason he still can't put into words. Later in life, to celebrate his daughters' graduation, he took his family on a vacation to Africa and summited the first of the seven summits. He is on a quest to reach the top of all seven 7 summits while simultaneously writing a book with lessons from the mountains to his grandchildren. Alli talks with Gary about his experience climbing Mt. Everest, near-death challenges along the way and Gary shares nuggets of wisdom that can be applied to all aspects of life.
