Seven Years in Tibet: The journey to the self

from Tales of Our Time

Today's guest Wendy joins us to talk about the memoir-turned-movie "Seven Years in Tibet!" Originally a memoir about the life of Austrian mountain climber Heinrich Harrer, it was adapted into a film in 1997 by director Jean-Jacques Annaud. Wendy walks us through how the events of the film show the long journey to self-discovery, what it means to be a work in progress, and how there's no shame in trying to figure out who you are at any age!
