Cory Richards is a renowned National Geographic photographer and artist behind the iconic avalanche selfie that graced the magazine’s 125th-anniversary cover.
This conversation explores the paradox of achievement and healing through Cory’s raw lens on mental health, trauma, and the persistent need to matter. From teenage homelessness to becoming the first American to summit an 8000-meter peak in winter, Cory reveals how our greatest strengths can become our most binding prisons.
We peel back the layers of our stories and the vital distinction between external validation and true self-acceptance.
Raw, vulnerable, and illuminating, this conversation is both a warning and a light for others. Enjoy!
