from Small Changes Big Shifts · host Dr. Michelle Robin and Bayleigh Soza

Healing begins when we embrace our courage, our purpose, and the challenges that shape us. Jenn Drummond shares how surviving a near-fatal car crash led her to stop checking boxes and start living with intention. From summiting Mt. Everest to becoming the first woman in history to climb the second-highest peak on each of the seven continents, earning a Guinness World Record, she reveals how resilience, focus, and small daily actions can turn seemingly impossible goals into reality. Through her stories of mountaineering, leadership, and motherhood, Jenn inspires to confront their own mountains, cultivate strength from within, and rise into a life of meaning and impact.  Key Takeaways:   True growth begins when we embrace courage, purpose, and the unknown.  Resilience is built through intentional daily actions that align with our goals.  The right environment and support system are essential for achieving ambitious dreams.  Accountability and love can transform challenges into opportunities for growth.  Small mindset shifts, like gratitude and micro-moments of focus, compound into extraordinary results.  About Jenn Drummond:  Jenn Drummond is a world record-setting mountaineer, exited founder, and single mother of seven. After surviving a near-fatal car crash in 2018, she made a life-changing decision: to stop checking boxes and start living with purpose. That decision led her to summit Mt.

Today, Jenn is a sought-after speaker, bestselling author of "BreakProof", and high-performance coach to elite leaders and teams. Through her podcast "Seek Your Summit,"transformational keynotes, and resilience-based leadership training, she helps others conquer the mental mountains holding them back and turn success into significance.
