My best life lessons and education didn't come from a classroom - they've come from the wild. How you act in the big moments, the ones that challenge you, scare you, tempt you, and force you to make the right decisions, is what defines you.

Sometimes an ember is all we need.

I miss him still today: his long, whiskery eyebrows, his huge hands and hugs, his warmth, his prayers, his stories, but above all his shining example of how to live and how to die.

I love making healthy lean foods delicious - that's an art!

For me, my training is a key part of my work as so often my life has depended on being able to move fast and haul myself up and out of something fast!

There's no magic to running far or climbing Everest. Endurance is mental strength. It's all about heart.

To get ready to climb Everest, I did a lot of hill running with a daypack on and a lot of underwater swimming. I would swim a couple of lengths underwater and then a couple above. It gets your body going with limited oxygen.
