An interview with Robby Kojetin, author of Mind Over Mountain: A Mental and Physical Climb to the Top, in the new episode of Pagecast
More about the book!

In the new episode of Pagecast, the podcast from Jonathan Ball Publishers, Robby Kojetin is in conversation with Pippa Hudson about his new book Mind Over Mountain: A Mental and Physical Climb to the Top.

A simple mistake at an indoor climbing gym sentenced 28-year-old Robby to a year in a wheelchair, shattering his aspirations of becoming a mountaineer. In the months that followed, Robby faced depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and a complete loss of his sense of identity.

But from somewhere deep inside him, he summoned up the strength to keep going even when all seemed lost; he embarked on a monumental journey, a feat of mental and physical strength. His weakness became his power. This story is more than a biography or an account of a mountaineering expedition – it showcases the human spirit and shows us all how it is possible to rewrite the definition of what is possible.

From those dark days, Robby has become the embodiment of perseverance and possibility, overcoming the odds to join the handful of people who have summited Mount Everest.

Released every Monday at 7 am, Pagecast offers you insider interviews with recently published authors, looking into the process of writing, exploring the narratives within and providing you with the story behind the story.
