I was sick. I was coughing. I just wanted to go back home. And I would think of the moment when I saw two lines of girls and they were looking at me like I'm going to fix their life for them. And I would just imagine those girls, and I couldn't quit. I just had to take the next step.""Everything started breaking down. Pieces of ice were falling down the mountain and the noise it made was like a rocket taking off.""The girls are so confident. They're just amazing. I'm in awe of their confidence and the way they are. So I go to them for motivation now, even if it might seem like I'm inspiring them, they're inspiring me all the time."Learn More About Sara SafariWebsite: Sara SafariWebsite: Empowering Nepali GirlsBook: Above The Mountain's ShadowTED Talk: Climb Your EverestHer Mission: The Seven SummitsResources Mentioned in this EpisodeBook: We Are The Leaders We've Been Waiting For by Julie OwenBook: SapiensBook: AttachedBook: Talking to StrangersFilm: EverestFilm: MeruPh.D. in Leadership & Change at Antioch University Quotes Mentioned in this Episode"The hardest person you will ever lead is yourself" - Bill George
