In this bite-size episode, we revisit my conversation with Pat Falvey: adventurer, entrepreneur, expedition leader, and the first Irish man to summit Everest not once, but twice. Pat’s story reaches far beyond the mountains. He speaks to growing up in poverty, building and losing fortunes, standing at the edge of suicide, and finding purpose through contribution, courage and self-belief.
This conversation reminds us that every one of us has a personal Everest to climb. The mountain isn’t the point. The person you become along the way is. Pat’s journey shows what happens when resilience meets meaning, and how the greatest victories are the ones won inside ourselves.
