Climb Your Mountain

[CYM 1.0] #8 – "I'm not ready, and I'm going to die."

Sarah Maurer Season 1 Episode 8

"I'm not ready, and I'm going to die." Before a big mountaineering trip, it's normal to feel like you're not prepared and worry that you're going to drop dead — or get left behind, or mess up the trip for everyone else, etc. The good news is that you're not alone if you feel this way, because almost everyone goes through a version of this. The even better news is that there are some very normal things that happen in training that can convince you that you're not ready when you're actually right on track. In this episode, we'll talk about how the training effect, brain science, and cognitive biases mess with your head before a big trip — and what you can do to manage the anxiety they create.
