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.
