Conrad Anker (59) visited Norway for a couple of weeks to climb ice and spread some wisdom. On his way back to his home in Bozeman, Montana, he stopped by the NEDA studio in Oslo for a couple of hours.

Conrad is a climber, adventurer, author, storyteller, wilderness first responder, father, husband, and a man of wise words. He has opened new routes in Antarctica, Patagonia, Karakoram, Himalaya and Alaska for the last 40 years. In 1999 he found George Mallory's body on Mt. Everest, which had been laying there since 1924 when the Brits made the first real attemt to climb Everest. He has been in tons of climbing films, more noticably Meru, Lunag Ri 2nd Attempt, and Torn, which tells the heartbreaking story of how he lost his best friend and climbing partner, Alex Lowe, in an avalance on Shishmapangma in 1999 and how he fell in love and married Jenny, Lowe's widow, and adopted their kids. 

This dude has lived life to the fullest and continues to do so. This is incredible conversation with an incredible human being.

Jennifer Lowe-Anker, artist and author of the book "Forget Me Not", shares her story and insights on the podcast today. In the episode, we explore the relationship we have with the environment around us, and the environment we have with our own body. We dive into Jennifer’s story of losing her husband Alex Lowe, and out of grief and loss, found love with Conrad Anker. We talk about Jennifer’s story, her book, and the beautiful insights she has into nature, life, and connection. Jennifer offers us such an amazing gift of perspective, and what’s truly important when it comes to the precious moments of this life.

"The in-between parts, is the part we have that we can do something with. And if we're brave enough and courageous enough to love someone, and to forgive them for all of their imperfections, and be open hearted to their love for us, then, we can live life with a lot of joy" ~Jennifer Lowe-Anker
