Sarah Williams was bored with work and frustrated with pay scales in the banking industry. So she decided to backpack across South America, climb a bunch of mountains, and be a chalet host in Switzerland. This led to the birth of Tough Girl Challenges. Learn about the cool events she's done since, and how she wants to help empower women with her brand. Enjoy the first of two episodes this week.
