children mountain saws
I did not set out to be a poster child for anything. I saw a mountain. I wanted to climb it.
writing creativity hands
I am severely dyslexic, so I'm not the person who can do a lot of typing, writing and mathematics. I don't excel in anything except in things that had to do with creativity and things with my hands. I like to build things and take things apart.
mountain saws wanted
I saw a mountain. I wanted to climb it.
long inspire care
I really don't care about being the first, so long as it inspires someone else to be second.
adventure feelings mountain
I climbed nine mountains because I love adventure, and I got addicted to that feeling and I never wanted to stop. I wanted to see what I could accomplish. I finally can say that I stood on top of the world.
change comfort general hope mountain opinion push step women zone
It doesn't have to be a mountain you have to be climbing. I hope to change people's opinion about Saudi in general and Saudi women and Saudi women's opinion about themselves. I really hope they can step out of their comfort zone and just dream: try to push your limits.

I wanted something different; I wanted something that challenged me and that pushed me further. Then this idea of climbing Mount Everest came to my mind. It stuck in my head for days. Someone told me I couldn't do it, and that really annoyed me.

I'm honored that I'm in history, but I don't think it would mean anything if it doesn't change anything.
