I think everyone and I am so excited to be that and talk talk with you all today a I was out of the very basic question and it is something that I think that I do is the one thing that really changed my life of what is that one Mimidae that you'd really have strongly about yourself please OGSA he dives director India a most the times
when I asked this question to %HESITATION children of memories come from something that was outdoors something that especially the memories that come from my identity come from things off climbing trees and stealing wall was too of finding a cat on the street or %HESITATION %HESITATION Danzig in that in and I think that is the one thing that has really stayed with me or delete change the
way I grew up a spend time outdoors and in that the element actually changes the way we behave growing up I spent almost two months every item the mottos and this changed everything of Brewster Dr from pulled out to the Himalayas every year we never stated what does be which I don't dance we carried out on food be made friends with Luke goes we the Camden
farms and devoted sides and that became the one part of the yard that I looked forward to the Morse and that is what I fell in love with the mullahs letting her plight them and so live that was a whole different word and sports was was the one thing that talked me do this a education can he just allure things but I don't think that Katich
Durkin be built through science or mats it's probably a tougher route and it keeps it is possibly possible but a big drug addict at if you just go out and spend time in nature and play sports I think we dug up the most amazing and basic cactuses that that our large so complicated matematik seems be like you're physically strong you can do everything the fact that
I have climbed Everest means that my legs are the strongest in the store my aunt is not Joss about being able to climb among it has so many other factors involved in it like just Everest base camp has twenty seven teams more than Steve nationalities of the amount off planning that goes behind an expert so when we go for an expert and we have to we
have to plan the logistics we have to plan which food with survivor ad which altitude and which battery load which packet of food gore is red and if you send something up you got to have it back again so it's a barge deep management it's about la just good management as about yeah I have to study read those I have to study medicine I have to
study biologically I should have to know everything that's going on in my body at every different attitude on this mountain I need to also be really good at deep book apps psychology I think I was in a T. all of it's people that came from all over the word bag down a everyone comes with the I don't backstory is we have to be so careful of
what we about whether it's international politics whether it's history whether it's geography about I got to be that you don't hurt somebody sentiments because dad is going to change the way we all live climb the mountain together so the one thing that much needed to talk to me and I I probably cool with that Esther might be dusk and enter dares would the generation that we
I cannot be just a moment I have to also be an environment I also have to be a speak good I also have to be many many more towards that we could do today if we decide to become law doesn't engineer god still should strive to be sportsbeat B. runners to be mad at Honda's be something more that just worked puts money on your this expedition
also taught me what's it called the but you need to be the kind of mountain that I am as a deep we brought down more than fifty tons of garbage this expedition actually started a cabin called cash for trash cabin in which we give hundred the body to be used every person that brought kilo of garbage down when we climb a mountain reaction be a acclimate
dies for our body to get used to the high altitude we actually keep climbing up and coming back down so we got to camp one we leave all died O. stuff that we brought out that day and the equipment that we need and we come back down and then we go back to camp one stay the night we got a cab to stay the night and
then we come back to be that's what what is and again every time we are going up as a manager study every time we're going up redneck coming down with a bag seven deems at base camp multiplied by three that's about nine people going out with twenty kids isn't coming down with Z. change that suddenly once people know especially should pause once they knew they were
getting hundred nobody agrees but every kilo of a bridge or the or the garbage in art Janet aided garbage bios says we suddenly had be bridged adding six he was off where'd on their shoulders as they came down just because they would get that money but it worked it was a management strategy that that worked wonders and our expedition yesterday has collected about on an average
day in tons of garbage every year two thousand nine which is just amazing so I think it were mountain noting is not is not a always about reaching the summit in fact of as modern as well the first thing that ripped off is that something is optional bitter Dunning is mind and this is something that comes from being sports person as a school student my mother
put me in every sport possible and I lost in every sport possible all of those rather does surveying was cut out there were there was Dennis weather was bad mundane lives skipping and I demand very hard in all of them the one thing that that left me with and thank you for me to my mother for never would making me feel horrible for losing I mean
I I'd beautiful bad about it but I've never heard it never broke me it always just kept me going and that is the thing what ever we become and what ever we do if we could stick to one sport some physical activity to you are out of our lives that is the balance all of of I think that everything that I think is is meant did
as children we are very close to nature where they touch with the mod then the ground in the you know but as we grow up as a Dodge this connection keeps stretching out only few of floods and I think that's why I'm so childish is because I am trying to mislead written nature I don't understand grown up things is because of course I spend a lot
of time with Mitchell but that is the one thing that that we keep the balance by the time I headed for the summit and this is one of my favorite studies survivors a it's one of the most spectacular climbs evoke of by the time I had reached can for and headed for some but bush a we generally leave the summit push in the night because the
snow is hard diets bed I'd go wet though so we left camp word which is that about it doesn't need does add it had to end the night and %HESITATION by five in the morning I was at eight thousand five hundred meters which is the south summit and from the south summit basically of does the Hillary step it's about two hundred me does and then you
have the summit of Mount Everest at this point of this is when we left at night this is my team others of you from camp for in the afternoon when I came back actually this is the heaviest so when we I'm being stop climbing we climb from here we go over here and behind those clouds the shoulder and I teach this short of basically of about
half an hour before that was that orange road around the house yeah this is about four four o'clock and this is about five and as you see the the cloud cover is that four thousand need to so I am sending at eight thousand five hundred meters and the cloud cover it isn't about four thousand four thousand five hundred he does and the sun is below the
clouds see the the orange but below the clouds I got even the sun as a and what's the fuss really the sun came out from this side on my left was a massive shadow of governors and this is actually dead minutes after the sunrise because I took my bag off removed the cap but I want a dollop sicher don Dixon long time for all this for
all of us to do all of this in the mountains but add when when the sun came out of the shadow came this shadow was at least then said he does above the horizon and it Dollard over me and it was them lost magnet site evo it was the first time that well the biggest thing that I realized when I saw that was I realize that
the shadow that I stood between dying first of all that there was light on one side and those documents on one and the documents on one side was actually because of the thing I was standing on like Everest and me were together in that shadow for those for that time and I realize that as civilization as human being today we stand exactly go we've climbed up
a great deal we've we've reached eight thousand five hundred meters we have only three hundred meters to go at three fifty meters to go we have the advancement of technology in the brightness why not right it's the one dispatcher day a week and do amazing but at the same time those of the same things that have created a massive shadow on all would created bios the
beauty of being at eight thousand five hundred me does is that you can look in both died action you can look at the brightness and you can look at the dock our generation is the generation that can really make a difference we've turned their ignore that money is not everything we know what to do that that pursuing our dreams and going off to something that is
impossible is is possible it is the norm today so a I hope that oilfield spend a lot of time outdoors realize the importance of the was that we live in as women especially of I've done the seven summits and I am one alright expert it is what I am coveting of river systems on each continent every %HESITATION refinished with Gaga lost it and I'm off to
the Mississippi very soon a I have a good group of the eight women from around the wood and being with them and fighting for this cause and teaching about invite image to so many people has made me realize that we as humans have screwed up to things how we do you know women and how we do not need to it's Mother Earth and mother we have
