🌴316. Step by Step

I’m checking in from the stunning mountain town of Namche Bazaar, and wow, what a place. It’s full of cafés, shops, and even nightclubs, which feels kind of wild this high up. We had an acclimatization day yesterday, which sounds chill… but it was definitely not. Every step uphill was a challenge, but when I reached the top and saw Mount Everest for the first time, it honestly took my breath away in more ways than one.Afterward, I treated myself to a massage, a hair wash, and even wood-fired pizza, because who knows when I’ll find those luxuries again. Today we’re off on another 10K trek, climbing another 400 meters toward our next stop. I’m feeling good overall, just a little congested from the cold air and dust.In this quick check-in, I share: • What an “acclimatization hike” really feels like 😅 • How I’m managing mild altitude symptoms • My switch from coffee to lemon-ginger-honey tea • Thoughts on Diamox and why I haven’t started it yet • My mini obsession with tracking oxygen levels • Why going slow and steady is my motto up hereIt’s all about taking it one step at a time, literally. Feeling grateful, grounded, and ready for the next climb. Thanks for listening, and I’ll catch you again from higher up the trail. 🌄Pre-order my new book WORK FAME and get featured on the Wall of Work FameSign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comLet's connect on all the channels:Leanne Hughes on LinkedInLeanne Hughes on InstagramVisit my website: leannehughes.comEmail me: [email protected] you like to deliver your own private podcast feed to your audience?
