Hey there!

Today, we’re switching things up with something truly inspiring. We're talking about women's empowerment, breaking barriers, and smashing stereotypes. Our latest article, "Climbing in Skirts: The Cholitas' Mission for Women's Empowerment" dives into the incredible journey of the Cholitas, a group of badass Aymara women who are redefining what it means to be strong and united.

We had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Elena Quispe, the main speaker for the Cholitas, and trust us, her story is one for the books. These women have already conquered the highest peak in America, and guess what? They’re gearing up for their next epic adventure: Mt. Everest.

Don’t miss out on this amazing read!

EDITOR’S PICK

You don´t need to act big to impact big.

A life lesson from a volunteer firefighter: Watch this video in which the volunteer firefighter Mark Bezos tells a story of an act of heroism that didn't go quite as expected -- but that taught him a big lesson: Don't wait to be a hero.

We recommend checking it from 2.40 to 3.31 😉
