The Unwrapped Series - Eojin Yang

Hosted by Sarah Baek

In today’s episode, we interview a mountain-climbing, marathon-running, adventurer, Endless Jin! With a world record in climbing Breithorn mountain (4,164 meters tall) in Switzerland with 80 other women from 25 different countries, hear how Jin joined the first-ever all-female rope team in the world! 🧗‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Whether you care about sports or not, Jin’s inspiring journey and outlook on practising gratitude daily is one to marvel at. Joining us all the way from South Korea, the talktank is honoured to have Eojin with us live here in London! 🇰🇷
