What’s the most frightening scenario you’ve ever faced? And were you prepared for what came next?

Few of us have ever sat on the edge of a plane above Mount Everest about to jump out when the sh*t has hit the fan (spoiler - that isn’t what went wrong).

Holly is a powerhouse. She holds 2 World Records, an Everest Summiteer and the first woman to skydive Everest. She’s raced over 1000km across Mongolia on semi wild horses. But that was only the start of her adventures, she’s the first guest I’ve spoken to where adventure has led her onto a path of animal conservation, a cause very close to my heart. Holly founded the charity How Many Elephants whilst studying for a Masters in Sustainable Design back in 2013. This charity champions and supports female rangers on the front line, through funding anti-poaching, educational and community-orientated projects. These women are, quite frankly, AWESOME, and along with the charity are helping to save Africa and South Africa’s endangered rhinos and elephants.

Holly’s passion, purpose and self belief is contagious. In this interview we find out how 60 seconds of adrenaline can change your life forever and how you can turn fear into action - helping you become the change you want to see in the world.
