Episode 7: Overcoming Challenges with Natalie Van Zyl

This episode I welcomed my first female guest and dear friend Natalie Van Zyl who shared with us her experience mountaineering, which includes climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and preparation for that. As well as healing from a terrible car crash prior to starting her fitness journey and dream of mountaineering. We discuss various topics, mountaineering tips and facts, and how she has overcome so much. That we can overcome challenges with believing in ourselves, preparation, and strengthening our mental health.

We also discussed the recent tragedy of the Uvalde Texas Elementary School shooting openly and what underlying issues could be addressed to prevent tragedies like this. Our sincere condolences to the families and those affected.

Feel free to share any thoughts you'd like regarding this episode, I appreciate we can have open dialogue and various opinions to share and learn from each other's perspectives. Also, please let me know if you have any questions for Natalie for a future episode where we can answer those and have her share some of her other fields of expertise.

Thanks for listening!
