It's a brand new episode filled to the brim with positive news! But first we need to talk about what I've been up to for the past few weeks.
Then, we cover Dierdre Wolownick, the 70 year-old who just made history as the oldest climber to reach the peak of El Capitan at Yosemite. She just happens to be the mother of Alex Honnold, the feature of the documentary Free Solo. (05:17)
We also have to chat about the viral review of the Raypose leggings from Cory H. After sliding and rolling down a mountain, Cory posted a rave review about the leggings! #ILoveCory (11:45)
And we finish our episode talking about Mamie Till-Mobley. She lived a courageous life as an educator, speaker, and civil rights activist after being faced with tragedy no mother should face. (16:08)
Her legacy is still being taught today and you can help fund a scholarship in her name, here.
