Rock Climbing Presentation
Join me on July 9th at 1pm as I share how climbing has challenged me, intrigued me, and helped me discover who I am.
“Who am I?” I asked, standing atop an 180ft crag in Joshua Tree, the cold wind whipping around me. It was the first climb of the season, and by the end, I’d conquered 13 more rock faces and attempted an additional three—not bad for a 72-year-old.
I started rock climbing at 70 and now confidently call myself a “rock climber.” This journey has been more than just physical; it’s been one of self-discovery. Climbing, like life, is full of different paths—what works for one, may not work for another. Every misstep, every fall, teaches me something new. Failure isn’t the end; it’s proof you’re pushing your limits.
