Join the Ladies Adventure Club for an evening with Majka Burhardt, professional climber, author, social entrepreneur, and mother of 4.5 year old twins. Majka lives in New Hampshire and her reach is global.
She'll share stories with us about accomplishing big goals and what it feels like to commit yourself deeply to a challenge, and she'll also share information on The Sky Islands -- the world's most hyper biodiverse mountains that are one of the keys to combating climate change. We'll also learn about Legado -- the international conservation organization she founded to protect Sky Islands. Legado is protecting these epicenters of biodiversity by working hand in hand with the people who call them home.
Majka is backed by organizations like Rainforest Trust, Conservation International, Patagonia and more.
Throughout the talk, Majka will share stories of rock and ice climbing, shoring up the world’s water towers in the face of climate change, discovering new species, leveraging a team of world-class rock climbers for cliff-side access scientific research, working as a conservation entrepreneur, and trying to pull of motherhood while doing it all.
