Enormocast 287: Mo Beck – A Certain Version of Fine

On Episode 287 of the Enormocast, I connect with Paraclimbing champion, Mo Beck. Mo was born with one hand, and her parents were determined to make sure she was ready for challenges of life like any other kid. When Mo ran into a camp counselor that told her that she didn’t HAVE TO climb if she wanted to sit it out, her life’s course was set. Mo went on to several gold medals in paraclimbing, a starring role in Cedar Wright’s film, Stumped, a Nat Geo Adventurer of the Year award, and a life as a pro climber. Mo also founded the Adaptive Climbers Festival. Representation of disabled climbers is her game, and she dreams of big expeditions to the greater ranges, but whatever you do, don’t call her an inspiration.
