From growing up in a humble family in Nepal to becoming a Gurkha and serving in UK Special Forces, Nims shares the mindset forged long before the mountains. The conversation explores Project Possible and the unseen realities behind climbing all fourteen 8000 metre peaks, including the fine line between bravery and recklessness when lives are on the line. Nims opens up about performing under pressure, leading when no one is watching, and the discipline required to survive extreme environments. Beyond mountaineering, this episode dives into leadership, fairness, entrepreneurship, and the personal cost of success. Nims reflects on purpose, integrity, and why true belief matters more than background, talent, or recognition in the pursuit of something greater than yourself. Learn more about your ad choices.
