Ep. 812: The First Women’s Team to Climb the Seven Summits - Shailee Basnet

After growing up in the shadows of the Himalayas her whole life Shailee Basnet first was given the opportunity to climb Mt. Everest in 2008 through an all-women’s Nepali team.

After a successful summit, they were only just getting started. Over the next 6 years Shailee would lead the same team of 10 women to become the world’s first female group to scale the highest peak in each continent.

Since finishing the seven summits, Shaiee is focused on leading programs to help train young girl survivors of human trafficking to become trekking guides as well as speaking on her experiences in mountaineering. As a speaker, Shailee takes audiences on a virtual journey of the Himalayas sharing some hard-earned insights. She also enjoys hitting the stage as a stand-up comic and has performed at clubs in Nepal, USA and India.
