You don’t have to be the strongest or the fastest to reach the summit. In this episode, I’m joined by Alison Levine, an adventurer, leadership expert, and the first American Women’s Everest Expedition Team Captain. We talk about what mountains teach you about business, leadership, and life, why failure is never final, and how relevance isn’t about chasing the next big thing. Alison also shares the story of being the weakest link on an Antarctic expedition, what your teammates teach you about compassion and contribution, and the new bucket list project about the stories that can’t be shared in corporate keynotes. Tune in for the encouragement you didn’t know you needed.
