“Bumps and the bruises don’t stop him. His website says that he is an Extreme Athlete, Mountain Bike Racer, Paralympian, Husband, Father, Friend. From experience, I can tell you that he gives each equal weight. He’s the best friend you could find. I’d imagine that daughter Ella and wife Heidi would agree that he makes them feel like the most important people in the world. And he’s never had a bad day.”

Davis’ resume of climbing achievements spans 25 years. She was the first woman to free climb the Salathe Wall on El Capitan, and the second woman to free climb El Cap in under 24 hours. She has established first ascents around the world, of difficult rock climbs and high-altitude mountains from Yosemite to the Karakorum.

Few climbers practice the high-risk style of free solo climbing, using no ropes or protective gear. Steph is the most accomplished female free soloist in the
world and is also one of the world’s top wingsuit base jumpers. She is one of just a few people in the world, and the only woman, combining free solo climbing with base jumping.

From an unusual start as a classically trained pianist with a master’s degree in literature, Steph chose to leave law school to pursue climbing full time.
She has become one of the most successful professional climbers in the world.

Steph has written two memoirs, High Infatuation and Learning to Fly, and curates a blog at stephdavis.co with a focus on community, health and wellness,
simple living and travel. She owns and operates Climb2Fly Productions in Moab, Utah, a climbing and base-jumping stunt company.

Dr. Travis Hearne is the Founder and CEO of Titanium Leadership Coaching and Consulting (TLC), author of “Hybrid: A Guide for
Successfully Leading On- Site and Remote Teams,” a Marine Corps combat veteran, co-founder of the Buffalo Leadership Academy, speaker, educational training creator and facilitator, cybersecurity consultant, father, husband, and son.

Dr. Hearne’s philosophy is that holistically healthy leadership is the key to organizational success. He also believes that people need to have a firm understanding of what effective leadership looks like and how it can not only change an organization for the better but improve the lives within.

This event will be unlike others that you’ve attended in the past. Not only will he challenge those in the room to become better leaders, but Dr. Hearne will also equip them with the tools they need to do so. The topic of leadership is too important to leave to mediocracy.
