In this inspiring episode of Change Your Mind with Kris Ashley, elite mountaineer, adventure racer, author, and mother Dianette Wells shares how one climb up Mount Whitney awakened a lifelong passion for adventure and led her to conquer the Seven Summits, including Everest, Kilimanjaro, and Denali. Dianette opens up about near-death experiences, trusting her inner voice, navigating devastating grief after the loss of her son Johnny Strange, and the mental resilience required to keep going when life feels impossible. Through stories of extreme endurance, motherhood, healing, and spiritual intuition, she reminds us that the greatest mountains we climb are often the ones within ourselves. This conversation is a powerful reminder to stop waiting for “someday,” trust yourself, and take the next step toward the life calling you forward.
