This is my story...

All you need to do to make a radical change in your life is to take

one

more

step

every day

In the most difficult moments, I learned the most important lessons.

When the mountain stripped away everything I thought I knew, I learned that strength doesn't come from muscles — it comes from the decision not to give up.

Andrea Cardona growing up — family, travels, early adventures

Growing up I was very cold, afraid of heights and even worse, I suffered from asthma. I definitely did not have the profile of an extreme climber.

I climbed one small mountain after another, gradually increasing my endurance, technique and confidence. I didn't know it then, but I was already practicing the One More Step method.

It's amazing what you can achieve by taking one more step every day.
