In the latest episode of Voice of the Mountains, Steve welcomes an icon of mountain sports and artistic genius. Cory Richards went from homeless kid to Nat Geo Adventurer of the Year. From depression and bi-polar diagnoses to one of the best spokesmen and advocates for mental health, particularly men’s mental health. Cory and Steve discuss difficult transitions, how certain beliefs, such as how a certain unhealthy relationship is good for them, become convictions. How they spent years living in the confines of those beliefs despite the seemingly obvious damage to themselves and others. So in this episode, they unpack what this looks and feels like and they hope others will recognize themselves in that and seek positive change. Cory and Steve step in to the difficult conversations and use vulnerability to lead an enlightening discussion between two mountain greats.
