Some snippets from the episode:

[00:02:14]
Jenn Drummond is trying to be the first female to climb the seven second summits. She says deep down, she is a seeker. Her bucket list got to be a bucket book.

[00:07:40]
Seven people will climb Mont logan for the entire duration of the expedition. They carry their gear three to 4 miles each day. What happens if there’s an emergency?

[00:12:03]
The mother of seven is the only female on her team of seven. What is it like actually having seven children? “It’s a lot of time invested just on the daily to be able to do this kind of thing”

[00:15:21]
I had no idea I was afraid of heights until I started this quest. Being able to language it has allowed me to shrink it and define it. It’s all in perspective and the way that you view it.

[00:17:46]
These opportunities just keep refreshing and keep allowing me to be authentic and real. Let’s keep shaving off and leaning in.

[00:25:50]
When you want to quit, you’re only at about 40% of your own personal capacity, there’s still 60% more to go. Sometimes you just have to remind yourself of that and then dig deep and think of who you’re doing it for and why.
