You would think being the first and only American to summit an 8000m peak in winter would be the climb of a lifetime... but for renowned National Geographic photographer, writer, authort, and climber, Cory Richards' journey with mental health has been the true summit. Although he grew up in a picture-perfect family, Cory's journey began with a violent relationship with his brother and being diagnosed with bipolar II at a young age. From childhood trauma to addiction, Cory went on to accomplish incredible things, but what shines even brighter than the accolades is the human experience Cory has lived and has come to share with the world.

In today's episode, we dive in to men's mental health, how mental health doesn't discriminate based on privilege or status, overcoming addiction, true ownership of your life, and how to stop getting stuck in the stories you tell about yourself so you can live truly free.
