#29 WOMEN WHO DARE - SARAY KHUMALO

Saray Khumalo doesn't just push barriers, break taboos and smash ceilings, she also climbs mountains - literally! She became the first black African woman to reach the summit of Mt Everest on her 4th attempt, which tells you everything you need to know about her resilience, determination and strength of character. 

But for many years Saray was coasting along, doing the things a good girl is supposed to do and ticking the right boxes. As an experienced business executive, she has a solid track record in some of South Africa’s leading financial institutions as an eCommerce and Loyalty Specialist. It took losing a family member for her to ask herself some tough questions about purpose, passion and the price of complacency. Today she is a global transformational coaching working with executives and business leaders across the world.

She is also the founder of Summits with a Purpose, an initiative that has raised funds and built physical and digital libraries in disadvantaged African schools. She believes that literacy and education have the power to change the narrative for the next generation.
