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. To her fans, it looked like Sasha was on top of the world. But under the accolades, she was just another young woman learning how to handle the intense scrutiny of social media and dealing with body dysmorphia, all while quietly facing a potentially career-ending injury. In a relatable and inspiring voice, Take the Lead reflects on the highs and lows of Sasha's illustrious life and career for the first time, bringing readers on her remarkable journey from novice climber to Columbia University graduate, adventurer, environmentalist, and entrepreneur, and one of the most recognizable faces in climbing. For readers of Cheryl Strayed's Wild and Megan Rapinoe's One Life, Take the Lead ultimately emphasizes the power of perseverance, fearlessness and positivity in tackling some of the most daunting and fearsome climbs-on and off the wall"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Includes index. 600 10 $a DiGiulian, Sasha. 650 0 $a Women mountaineers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Rock climbing $z United States. 650 6 $a Femmes alpinistes $z EÌtats-Unis $v Biographies. 650 7 $a SPORTS & RECREATION / Rock Climbing. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 8 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20240529010240.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20240511010438.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412011001.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409044941.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20240326010406.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20240202021651.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231102013445.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231004010436.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5DCE0C40627B11EE9D8B625031ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
