About Bonita Norris

Bonita Norris is a record-breaking mountaineer, award-winning motivational speaker, and bestselling author of The Girl Who Climbed Everest. She holds the distinction of being the youngest person ever to reach both “tops of the world”: the summit of Mount Everest and the North Pole. Her extraordinary achievements prove that with the right mindset and teamwork, even the most impossible challenges can be overcome.

At just 20 years old, Bonita set her sights on summiting Everest, despite having never climbed a mountain before. Within two years, she conquered not only Everest but also Mt. Manaslu, the world’s eighth-highest peak. A year later, she reached the North Pole, becoming the youngest person ever to achieve both remarkable feats. Determined to push beyond Everest, she took on the far more dangerous Mt. Lhotse, the world’s fourth-highest peak, and became only the third British woman in history to reach its summit. She has since attempted K2 and led multiple expeditions up Mt. Kilimanjaro, inspiring teams with her courage and perseverance.

With over 650 talks delivered in 12 years, Bonita is a highly sought-after motivational speaker, captivating audiences at global corporations such as Microsoft and Google. She won “Best Speaker Storyteller” at the 2024 Speaker Awards in London, a testament to her ability to inspire and engage. Her talks revolve around the themes of ‘success by smallness’ and overcoming the ‘mountain of the mind’, helping individuals and teams navigate seemingly insurmountable challenges. She delivers practical insights, powerful takeaways, and actionable strategies designed to instil resilience, focus, and belief in one’s own potential.

What makes Bonita’s story so compelling is that she is an ordinary person who achieved the extraordinary, not through talent, but through unwavering determination. She teaches audiences how to apply her principles of focus, perseverance, and adaptability to their own goals, whether in business, leadership, or personal growth. Today, Bonita is not only a trailblazing adventurer but also a mother of two, living in Ascot, Berkshire. She continues to inspire others through her speaking engagements, bestselling book, and her deep passion for pushing beyond limits.
