"It's not easy for me just to make it through your average day, like I almost fall over and do fall over just in my kitchen trying to make dinner. But if I'm still able to accomplish these things that are seen as goals... it enriches my life in so many different ways." 🙌🏽

We're thrilled to bring back one of our most inspiring conversations for those who might have missed it the first time. Meet Wayne Willoughby—an adaptive rock climber who defied incredible odds and has climbed El Cap not once, not twice, but an unbelievable 26 times. 🧗‍♂️🏔️

From battling polio and disabilities since infancy to overcoming severe injuries, Wayne's story is about resilience, creativity, and an unstoppable spirit. In this re-release, Wayne shares how he developed the grit and deep gratitude that empowered him to conquer seemingly impossible climbs. He even became the first adaptive climber to reach the summits of both El Capitan and The Diamond in under 24 hours. ⚡

With his infectious and humble demeanor, Wayne will inspire you to see challenges in a new light. Whether you’re a seasoned climber or someone looking for an awe-inspiring story of perseverance, this conversation is as relevant and uplifting today as it was when we first aired it.

Don't miss out on this chance to revisit a real-life superhero who, even in his 70s, is still defying limits. Buckle up for a story that will challenge your perspective on what it means to be an elite athlete and a human being.
