Today we had mountaineer Jill Wheatley visit TBS. We loved Jill's inspirational story of how she overcame a traumatic brain injury, which left her with 30% vision, to climb 7 of the world's highest mountains.

We all share a love of wild spaces, but what we find when we venture out is often wildly personal.
Sometimes we head out to push ourselves & explore our limits, and sometimes it is simply to enjoy the beauty of our home planet.

Pain & suffering is part of the human experience. Rather than pushing it away, what if we used our pain & suffering as a catalyst for action? Jill Wheatley @mtnsofmymind (pictured) did exactly that when she decided that a TBI wouldn't stop her from creating a life she loves.
