Ep. 1141 - How Mountaineering Changes Lives with Lisa Thompson

In this episode, Lisa Thompson shares her transformative journey from a corporate executive to a passionate mountaineer and coach. After summiting Mount Rainier in 2009, she became an avid climber, eventually completing the Seven Summits. Lisa discusses the challenges of climbing K2, the importance of inclusivity in the sport, and how her battle with cancer reshaped her perspective on life and climbing. She emphasizes the need for accessible pathways for women in mountaineering and the significance of setting audacious goals. Through her coaching and the recent acquisition of Mountain Madness, Lisa aims to inspire others to embrace the mountains and their own personal challenges.
