Cory Richards has summited Everest without oxygen, survived avalanches, and photographed some of the world’s most remote regions. But his most grueling expeditions didn’t happen on a mountain—they happened within. In this revealing episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, you’ll hear how a life shaped by mental health struggles, institutionalization, and homelessness led Cory to push the limits of endurance—and how those experiences can offer powerful lessons on healing and self-discovery. We explore: • Why big achievements don’t guarantee fulfillment—and what actually does • How spending time in nature and solitude can help you reconnect with yourself and find clarity • What Cory’s journey through trauma and recovery can teach you about your own capacity to heal • Why creativity, purpose, and self-reflection are essential tools for building a meaningful life Don’t miss this powerful conversation about what it really takes to overcome adversity.
