In this heart-pounding and heart-opening episode, Wendy Valentine chats with elite mountaineer and adventure racer Dianette Wells, one of fewer than 500 people to climb the Seven Summits, including Mount Everest. But Dianette’s most difficult climb wasn’t on a mountain — it was through the devastating grief of losing her son, Johnny, a fellow adventurer. Together, they explore how to transform loss into purpose, why midlife is the perfect time to reinvent yourself, and how to take that first bold step toward your own personal Everest.

From competing in over 100 extreme races to discovering healing through movement, Dianette’s story is packed with awe-inspiring adventures, laugh-out-loud moments, and life lessons on strength, surrender, and saying YES to life — even when it scares you. Whether you’re climbing mountains or facing emotional valleys, this episode will remind you that courage isn’t the absence of fear — it’s doing it anyway.

💡 What You’ll Learn:

• How Dianette climbed the Seven Summits — and grief itself
• Why fear isn’t a stop sign, but a compass
• The power of saying “yes” to adventure (even when unprepared!)
• How nature can be a church, therapist, and gym all in one
• Tips for pushing through fear, anxiety, and emotional paralysis
• The importance of finding your tribe and living out loud in midlife
