Mini-Episode 11: Climbing Doesn't Change You

Welcome back to the podcast. I’ve always been a huge advocate of change, but not always the good kind. Usually the “shake the snow globe, throw caution to the wind” chaotic kind. Lorca from episode sixteen, season three (https://open.spotify.com/episode/4Qna9nf5ug7sfgp1vZXGVz?si=vfoxtXpWT7aemxuAkONQBQ), sporadically sends a newsletter which, as a person who hates all newsletters because they melt me down into an unproductive diatribe about marketers who clearly have no regard for CAN-SPAM laws—I love receiving this one. This week’s newsletter subject line was “Resilience Loves…Change”:“People who want clearly are dangerous to the status quo. They are natural catalysts. Things will change around them.”Up next is our eleventh mini-episode which is comprised of audio you sent in, answering the question: “How did climbing change your life?”We’re always taking audio submissions and pitches.
