Steph, My name is Lenny and I am a former Marine and I live in Alaska. I am writing this to you as I am currently over seas. I wanted to tell you that I have not read your book, watched your video clip, or have met you in person. But from your web page, [...]

Just saw your video clip about “letting things go…” I hafta tell ya from personal experience that letting things go is THE ONLY WAY to make any sense of it all, yeah??? I’m not a heller climber like you, just a regular guy, but I’ve done my share of climbing, sailing, remote camping, etc., and [...]

Hi Steph, first of all I would like to introduce me and of course nice to meet you. I just see a reporting in the Brasilian TV ( Discovery ) about you and your adventure one hour.  like in this saturday morning before I go to the club to play tenis, during the cofee break, [...]
