EP 14: Mountaineering in Mongolia, Receiving the Fulbright, and A Life of Intention with Anna Fatta (Part 2)

Hello, and welcome back to the Shadows Run Podcast! 

This episode features part two of my conversation with biochemist, artist, climber, and world traveler Anna Fatta. In this one we talk about Anna's year in Mongolia on the Fulbright Scholarship; we talk about an epic mountaineering trip she planned and executed while there; Anna dives more deeply into what drives her to do all the things she does and what living a life of intention means to her; and so much more! 

A clarifying note from Anna: "In this episode, I state that I do not expect to live until I’m eighty. This does not mean I believe I will die at twenty-four, or anytime in the near future. However, I do not believe the next fifty years are guaranteed to me. Each year is a gift, and I hope to experience as many years as I can, improving the chances of doing so with attention to risk and care for safety in all my endeavors."

Thank you so much for being here.
