Brian King is a husband, father, entrepreneur, businessman, yoga and mountaineering enthusiast. Originally from Dublin Ireland, Brian can be best described as a self-made man. Son of a fisherman and a nurse, educated in Aquaculture, Brian has owned and operated a diverse range of successful businesses in construction and health and wellness. Brian’s mountaineering adventures have inspired travels around the world, he finds a connection to the landscape of Nepal and the Himalayas. Brian’s charismatic approach to life, his kind heart and big smile make him a natural born leader. In 2013, I was lucky enough to join Brian on an expedition (which he organised and led with local Sherpas) to the Himalayas in which we supported local schools in the Khumbu region (Mt Everest) by supplying essential educational needs such as backpacks, tables and chairs. Racing him to the touch p of Mt Kalapathar (6000m), watching the sun rising over Mt Everest, and then frolicking at the base of the Khumbu Glacier are profound memories that I will cherish for eternity (I have photos of all of these experiences by the way which I will share on the THT Instagram).In this week's episode, Brian is with me to share his experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.Thanks to Indosole for supporting the showUse PROMO CODE: THT (15% discount...and you'll be SUPPORTING THE SHOW)https://indosole.com/If you enjoy the show please HIT SUBSCRIBE and leave a 5 star review in the iTunes store or Apple Podcast app—it really helps me to keep the show going, and if you want to go even further, head over to https://terriblehappytalks.com/ and pick up some ethically produced merchandise in the SHOP.
