Parenting: Disaster Style with Zoe Hart, Mountain Guide and Mother

Today’s guest is an alpinist, mountain guide and mother and the subject of a new three part film series from the team at Patagonia titled “Parenting: Disaster Style”. Pulled from the vocabulary of climbers, disaster style is all about giving it everything you’ve got. It’s hard, messy and adventurous with some risk in pursuit of big rewards. Zoe Hart asks what it would be like to bring that approach to the world of parenting, where risk looks more like a 25 hour flight with child that’s only a handful of months old than climbing a high grade pitch in nasty weather. This episode is incredibly enjoyable as we hear Zoe tell stories of both the good and the bad of “Parenting: Disaster Style”, as well as how he “accidentally” fell in love with her kids, and how they are working together today on a shared passion for environmental activism. Whether you are a parent or not, I think you’ll really enjoy Zoe’s perspective and can take some learnings from the lessons she’s experienced first hand - both good and not so good. After you listen to this episode, please make sure to head over to ecosystemmember.com where you can find links to watch the film series, as well as a really beautiful piece that Zoe wrote for Yeti titled “Finding Refugee”. Huge thanks to Zoe for taking time to chat and for her transparency. As a soon to be parent myself, many of these questions were as much out of personal interest as they were public interest. And as always, if you are watching on YouTube, please give this video a Thumbs Up and subscribe to the Ecosystem Member channel.
