On the couch - Saray Khumalo
Couch Saray Khumalo
Such a pleasure to welcome back to the couch today mountaineer Saaaara Khumalo. We last chatted to her in 2019, not long after she became the first black African woman to reach the top of Mount Everest. The summit was still recent, the trauma she’d faced en route was too, and I don’t think it had quite yet sunk in just what her achievement had
meant to so many people. But since then she has had time to reflect on the journey, to reflect on the personal mountains she climbed en route to Everest, and to think deeply about what she has learned along that route. The results is her new autobiography called My Journey to the Top of the World, which has just been published by Penguin Random House
