Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan
Confidence Classic: Unlock an Unstoppable Mindset & Marriage with Sarah Blakely & Jesse Itzler

Yeah. But yes, I'm so happy. I mean, Richard's actually a great friend. I'm actually going to Switzerland this Friday with Richard and about 35 entrepreneurs from around the world. And we're doing a physical challenge through the Swiss Alps to raise money for education. And I'm not like my husband. I'm not this physical, you know, challenge person.

But I had had too much tequila when Richard asked me if I wanted to go. And I said, yes. And so now I'm going. I hate it when that happens. I'm slightly terrified. But we're going to swim, bike, and hike through Switzerland. And it starts with a glacier lake swim in a full body wetsuit.

Oh, you have a clip? Which clip is it? Is it of the balloon?

That was so intense. There were so many things about that, but it took me 48 minutes to climb. It was a dangling rope ladder, so there was nothing anchoring it. So I spent the first 25 minutes of the climb just flailing around in the air. And then the last 20 minutes, I kept saying, just get to the balloon, get to the balloon.

But once I got to the balloon, the balloon was hot and the rope was very taut against the balloon. So I had nowhere to put my fingers anymore around the rungs of the ladder. So I'd use my fingertips. And then once I did the little T thing and was like, woo, that was great, I started bawling because I realized I had to climb down. Oh, my gosh. I was like, wait, how do we get down?

Yeah, because we're on autopilot as human beings. I mean, think about it. Almost every single thing that we do, someone taught us how to do it or we observed how it was done. And so I like the space of closing your eyes and saying, if no one showed you how to do this, how would you do it? Like, would you be doing it differently?
