Workshop Wednesday - Conquering Everest for good

At Workshop Wednesdays, we'll be shining a light on some of Workshop17's most successful entrepreneurs. Running their own teams with a string of successful projects and awards gracefully hanging in their back pockets. These creative mavericks are ready to share their successes and secrets. As creatives, ideas are part of our DNA; it's turning those brilliant ideas into viable, monetisable, and long-term business ventures that is another story entirely.

Angela takes audiences into the thin air of Mount Everest and back into the realities of leadership and resilience in everyday life. Having summited Everest after a demanding 50-day expedition, Angela uses the mountain as a powerful metaphor for navigating uncertainty, pressure, and personal transformation, blending lessons from mountaineering, entrepreneurship, and her philanthropic work through the Impilo Collection Foundation.
