The art of reinvention | Jenn Drummond | TEDxSwansea Women

In The Art of Reinvention, Jenn Drummond shares how a near-fatal car crash led her to reimagine her life and ultimately set a Guinness World Record in mountaineering. Through humour, story, and science, she shows how honesty about where you are, designing your future self, and aligning your environment can transform the impossible into possible. This talk is a roadmap for anyone ready to reinvent themselves and start truly living. Jenn Drummond is a world record-setting mountaineer, former CEO, and single mother of seven. After surviving a near-fatal car crash in 2018, she made a life-changing decision: to stop playing it safe and start living with purpose. That decision led her to summit Mt. Everest—and ultimately become the first woman in history to climb the second-highest peak on each of the seven continents, earning a Guinness World Record.

Today, Jenn is a sought-after speaker, bestselling author of “BreakProof”, and high-performance coach to elite leaders and teams. Through her podcast “Seek Your Summit,”transformational keynotes, and resilience-based leadership training, she helps others conquer the mental mountains holding them back and turn success into significance.

With the rare combination of business acumen and extreme adventure, Jenn blends boardroom strategy with mountaintop perspective—empowering others to lead with courage, perform under pressure, and achieve what once felt impossible. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
