Welcome to the Sends And Suffers podcast. I am your host, Mario Stanley.
Sends And Suffers is all about type two fun. No matter how much suffering you endured on your journey, the send always outweighs the suffering. I am a rock climber so I a lot about climbing trips, coaching climbing, bing a climbing guide, and the outdoor ethos.
Climbing saved my life. Climbing gave me an outlet that felt original. The community I grew up in didn’t believe black people did things like climb, and the climbing community I entered represented that fact 14+ years ago. I never had the luxury of caring whether I felt welcomed or not at climbing gym and crag if I wanted to rock climb. Luckily it was easier for me than others to adopt that “ all y'all, I’m here” attitude because that was the reality of being a black man coming into your own in the ’90s. I am here because I want to be, and rock climbing brings balance and peace to the warring parts of myself.
