Summary

Can you imagine training 1,238 hours for a moment that lasts just 10 minutes? Now imagine doing all that training as a working mom to 7 kids. Feels kind of impossible right? Well, if you’re looking for a boost of inspiration today, we’ve got you. This week on Habits & Hustle I’m joined by guest, Jenn Drummond. Becoming the first (and only) woman to complete the seven second summits we discuss how she balanced her rigorous training with motherhood and entrepreneurship, from pre-dawn workouts and on-the-go exercises at her kids soccer games. She also shares the rigorous mental and physical preparation that goes into climbing Mount Everest, and how to shift your mindset from prioritizing achievements, to the people and relationships that help you get there. Jenn also explores the critical importance of following rules and maintaining a strong mindset in an extreme environment, and how we can apply that to our own lives day-to-day. Jenn Drummond is a world record holder, author of ‘BreakProof’, host of the ‘Seek Your Summit’ podcast, and mom of 7. Jenn holds the record for the first woman to summit the seven second summits following a life-threatening car accident in 2018. What we discuss: (00:01) - the shift from operating out of fear to living from a place of abundance and purpose (10:08) - how you turn life’s toughest struggles into your biggest triumphs (15:43) - the harsh reality of preparing to climb Mount Everest (when you’ve never even slept in a tent) (24:05) - how to navigate the mental and physical preparation alongside parenthood (32:11) - navigating life or death situations in real time (41:42) - lessons learned from climbing the most famous mountain in the world (48:58) - how to master your mindset to achieve everything you’ve ever dreamed of Thank you to our Sponsors: Therasage: Go to therasage.com and use code B-BOLD for 15% off HBR: Go to www.hbr.org/subsciptions and enter promo code HABITS Find more from Jen: Website: https://www.jennifercohen.com/ Instagram: @therealjencohen Books: https://www.jennifercohen.com/books Speaking: https://www.jennifercohen.com/speaking-engagement Find more from Jenn Drummond: Website: https://jenndrummond.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejenndrummond/ Book: https://jenndrummond.com/book/ Podcast: https://jenndrummond.com/podcast/
