Cory Richards on Overcoming Obstacles
Cory Richards and I met at National Geographic’s event during 2017 SxSW, where we recorded this discussion (thus the background music). He was Nat Geo Adventurer of the Year in 2012. In this photo we are looking at a photo of Cory in the Khumbu Ice Fall in May 2016, when he reached the Summit of Mt Everest without supplemental oxygen, which is certainly an incredible accomplishment. He has also overcome challenges off the mountain, which you can learn about from his Keynote speech at SxSW. We discussed how Sherpas, subsistence and breaking things down to whatever is happening at this very moment make overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles possible.
