Checking in with my bridesmaids on their dress color choices from Everest base camp was something I’ll never forget. Thank goodness we had LTE there so we could pull off this mismatched but cohesive bridesmaids dress look. ⁣⁣Planning my wedding was so much fun! It was something I had been dreaming of for so long. ⁣⁣It happened at the perfect time in my life. It took me a long time to accept and love the part of myself that loves to wear dresses and twirl around in chiffon. It took me a long time to accept that I can be a feminist and want to be a bride and a wife. Gender equality is all about honoring the best parts of everyone. ⁣⁣I love these strong, brave and beautiful women! And strong is the new pretty! ⁣#climbforequality ⁣⁣Photo: @erinorthcutt

This was one moment from 2019 that I’ll never forget. I wanted to soak in every last moment of this sunset at Camp 2 on Everest/Chomolungma (25,000’/7620m), but my fingers could only handle a few moments of the cold before I had to zip up the tent and warm back up. Sharing that moment with my now husband, @rob.lea, was the greatest gift in the world. You’re officially off the hook for a Christmas present this year, Rob. #bigmtndreams #climbforequality

When @rob.lea set out to do his Ultimate World Triathlon, he wanted to start a conversation about something bigger than sport. Gender equality came very naturally because of the time he’s spent with me. ⁣⁣To the people who say, just climb, swim and bike, we say say, why wouldn’t you try and do everything you can to uplift others and make the world a better place? ⁣⁣Head on over to the @fattire IGTV via the link below or in profile to watch the entire short film. ⁣https://www.instagram.com/tv/B5p59rJlfKE/?igshid=27z2e9hjz7n2⁣#ClimbForEquality ⁣#TriForEquality ⁣#UltimateWorldTri⁣#HeForShe ⁣#ThenBeer⁣

I love seeing people set ambitious goals and having the courage and bravery to see them through. This year, @rob.lea became the first known person to climb Everest, swim the English Channel and ride his bike across America- all in a six month timeframe. Tomorrow, @fattire is releasing a short video about Rob’s Ultimate World Triathlon. Be sure to check out the whole short on their IGTV!#TriForEquality#ClimbForEquality #ThenBeer
