#MotivationMonday: One week down, four to go! This one, began his trek last week to film an indigenous Nepalese woman, Lhakpa Sherpa (read about her- link in BIO). Now, they head to Nepal. Why? Because she’s a mother of two, a former Sherpa and has summited Sagarmatha (Mt Everest) 9 times, the most for any woman. Devin’s been training at altitude, running with me, and backpacking to get used to carrying the weight/camera to film her journey and story. We have less than a year to get him ready for Sagarmatha 2020 (yes, I’m basically training with him)! @devinwhetstone, I’m so proud of you, excited for you, and nervous. I couldn’t have asked, dreamed, or prayed for anyone better than you as a partner. A complete surprise but it just felt right. The way you talked about the climate crisis and what you saw in the Himalayas, won me over. You’ve flown and drove all around the country for me and with me. You’re one of my biggest supporters, my cheer squad since day one. You are eager to learn, with a big and understanding heart. You inspire me. You fulfill me. And you make me so happy. We are partners. Now, I’m rooting for you and praying for your safety, the crews safety, and that you learn so much from Lhakpa while filming her story and a culturally rich and beautiful environment along the way. MJ, Oreo, and I miss you terribly (Oreo sleeps on your shirt on your side of the bed). You got this, čantéskuya. Safe travels to Nepal and you’ll be home soon enough. I love you, more than any access to popcorn or coffee available to me, even if it’s free. Everyone - wish him luck, send some prayers or good vibes! Happy Monday! Mitakuye Oyasin, all my relations.
