rewilding #116 adversity

Anna Pfaff has been an alpinist and an ICU nurse for over 20 years. A few years ago she lost 6 of her toes to frostbite. A year after that she was back on the mountain in Nepal.

Most of us are drawn to these kinds of stories. It is easy to be inspired by someone who falls, picks themselves up, and does the thing anyway. This comes in many forms and we see and experience it all the time.

How can we learn from these stories in a way that is applicable to our lives? How do we get up and do the thing anyway? How do we lift up those around us to do the same? Questions I’m asking myself tonight.
