Show Notes
After Erik Weihenmayer become the only BLIND PERSON to summit Mt Everest: He was on the cover of Time Magazine, won the ESPY, was on Oprah, spent time with Tom Brady, shook hands with Mohammad Ali-he literally was Elevating Beyond... But the words kept rattling around in his brain that his expedition leader told him: "Don't make Everest the greatest thing you ever do." On this episode of Elevating Beyond, Mark sits down with Erik as he shares the story behind the story of what it felt like to go blind in 9th grade, battling fear and hopelessness, and how he chose to live a life of No Barriers. Erik explains what is is to live a life of alchemy, and how all of us can choose to become courageous. Erik is the best selling author of Touch The Top of The World & No Barriers, A Blind Man's Journey to Kayak the Grand Canyon.
