FOCUS. ADAPT. CONTROL
This week I sit down with Alyssa Azar. Alyssa's bio is too long to list… she has achieved more in her 21 years than many will in a lifetime and is the youngest Australian to ever summit Mt Everest.
I asked Alyssa on the show because of her relentless attitude towards her goals, the unique light she provides to 'acting with purpose and passion', as well as all the amazing stories she has experienced to tell and that you deserve to hear.
Alyssa's essay question was:
"I was recently asked, and I'm glad I'm sitting with you today because you are likely to have a better perspective on this than I, in terms of adventures or challenges that cause us to flirt with the real likelihood of death… Why?"
And we discussed topics such as – why go again? the joy in aligning your journey with your achievement, being inwardly motivated and choosing the hard option.
