In this episode, Matt is joined by Beth Rodden who is one of the best female rock climbers of all time, and a globally recognized ambassador for the outdoor community. She has achieved a number of notable free climbs on El Capitan, the 3,000-foot monolith in Yosemite National Park, and has also established the hardest first ascent of a crack climb ever done by a woman.
As if being a world class rock climber wasn’t enough to fit into one life story, Beth’s journey has been nothing short of incredible. When she was 20 years old, she and 3 of her friends were kidnapped during a climbing expedition in Kyrgsztan and were held for multiple days before they escaped.
That story, along with so many others are detailed in Beth’s new book, A Light Through The Cracks and in today's episode, Matt and Beth discuss her story and the many lessons she has learned along the way.
