Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone With Sanni McCandless Honnold
Explicit content warning
10/02/22 • 66 min
I first encountered Sanni probably the same way you did - watching the Oscar-winning documentary Free Solo.
Dating legendary climber Alex Honnold, Sanni struck me as a beautiful and brave soul as she supported the man she loves as he climbed El Capitan (2.5x as tall as the Empire State Building!) with NO ROPE. I've since had the joy of becoming friends with Sanni in real life, and she's a woman who inspires me to push my limits and get out of my "But I'm a city girl!" box.
In this intimate conversation, we discuss:
- Celebrating stepping out of our norms and comfort zones.
- How Sanni deals with fear in a relationship and regulates fearful emotions.
- Dealing with negativity and feedback effectively.
- Top communication tips, including the "failure bow" and four strategies to deal with any situation.
- Coping with changing relationship dynamics after having a baby.
Sanni is a transition coach for outdoor-focused individuals who want to create more tailored, intentional lifestyles and find agency in their own lives. In her work, she helps people overcome the doubts and concerns that get in the way of living fearlessly and feeling fulfilled.
You can learn more about her incredible company Outwild, here. And be sure to follow her on Instagram @sannimccandless.
