About this item

World champion climber Sasha DiGiulian tells her story -- from coming of age under the scrutiny of social media, navigating a male-dominated sport, and tackling her most heart-stopping climbs -- and shares the power of perseverance and positivity.. At age six, Sasha DiGiulian stepped into a climbing gym for the first time and was competing within a year. Decked out in all-pink gear and with her blonde hair tied into pigtails, Sasha knew from an early age what it was like to be a girl in a traditionally male-dominated sport, vowing to never sacrifice her femininity to fit in. With a fierce love for the climb and incredible natural talent, Sasha soon won her first National Sport Climbing Championship at only seventeen, and a year later took the title of World Champion.
