Biography

Squash Falconer is an accomplished mountaineer and not only has she summited Mount Everest, but she holds the record as the world’s highest ever bum boarder – a title she gained on Cho Oyu (8188m), the 6th highest mountain in the world!

Squash Falconer was the first British woman to climb and paraglide from the summit of Mont Blanc, having ridden there from the UK on my motorbike (she couldn’t get an Uber).

In 2013, Squash Falconer wanted a different type of adventure and ended up setting another record when she completed a 3000mile journey on an ElliptiGO (elliptical bicycle).

She has produced many short films about her adventures (and often incorporate those clips into herspeeches). In 2014 Squash Falconer presented an adventure travel documentary in the US where Squash rode thousands of miles through South America on my BMW GS 800, along the way she teamed up with Red Bull athlete’s and together we explored extreme sports and the location they were in.

She is passionate about sharing her adventures, and unique (some would call it quirky) outlook on life convinces audiences that with the right attitude – and an unrelenting belief in ourselves – every one of us can achieve our goals and dreams, or at least, something extraordinary.

Popular Talks by Squash Falconer

Leadership & Teamwork

Drawing parallels between the world of business and the worlds of mountain climbing and sport Squash, demonstrates the importance of goal setting, decision making, leadership and team work. The right team and decisions on a mountain will save your life; the right team and decision-making made on a project can prove the difference between success and failure. What defines success anyway, getting to the summit or getting back down alive? In business, often tough decisions pay off.

Through her presentation and talk, Squash will draw parallels between achieving her goals through meticulous preparation, planning, teamwork and execution in some of the most inhospitable and challenging environments in the world and how business objectives can be achieved and surpassed in the same way.

Inspiration for schools

Imagine if, when you were younger, someone told you anything was possible and then actually demonstrated to you that anything WAS possible. For young people, this kind of example and positivity can have a huge impact. Squash’s talk begins when she was little, when she was at school. By beginning from the same starting point as those listening, Squash is instantly on the same wavelength as her audience and then goes onto show them an exciting world of opportunity that isn’t exactly ‘text book’, proving that anything is possible and inspiring each individual to follow their dreams.
