This is not just about summiting K2—
This climb represents resilience, unity, and action.
Not just mine, but ours as a community.
Together, we can overcome any challenge when united for a common cause.
A single climb won't end war, but a powerful story can shift perspectives.
By documenting this journey, we show that standing for something, even in adversity, can inspire others to rise.
I will carry a No War flag, signed by supporters from around the world, as a symbol of our collective commitment to peace.
This flag represents all those who believe in change, in breaking barriers, and in standing for something greater.
I have solo-traveled 116 countries, crossed the Atlantic in a small boat when flights were canceled during COVID-19, and summited Everest despite extreme exhaustion.
But resilience is not just personal—it is about communities rising after war, about young people refusing to give up, and about proving that no challenge is insurmountable when we stand together.
The "No War" flag I carry represents:
Young girls who dare to dream;
Youth who defy hardship;
The belief that leadership belongs to everyone;
This flag will return as a symbol of our commitment to peace and unity.
K2 is the second-highest mountain on Earth at 8,611 meters.
It has a fatality rate of 25%—one in four climbers never returns.
Roughly 400 people in history have reached its peak.
This climb is about pushing limits and proving that resilience—both personal and collective—can take us further than we ever imagined.
History is shaped by those who take action.
I aim to inspire young girls to believe, "If she can do it, so can I."
