Emily is an endurance athlete with a proclivity for adrenaline-packed adventures. You can find her free-soloing rock of somewhat questionable quality, running 100-mile races, or taking off on lengthy and extremely remote backpacking trips involving the need for navigational prowess.

Emily is rarely without her furry best friend, Jolly, a golden retriever who loves adventuring just as much as Emily does.

In this episode, we dive into Emily’s adventures, but also discuss our tendency as humans to compare ourselves to others, and managing the negative feelings that come from this.

She's candid, kind, so much fun, and truly inspiring.
