We are an ordinary family.
We are an ordinary family who had a
collective and daring dream.
We followed through and we made that dream come true.
That’s what makes the story extraordinary.
Anyone can dream. Anyone can turn their dreams into
reality. It doesn’t take super strength, super
skills, or super powers of any kind. Just because something
is improbable, doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
Remember, we are an ordinary family.
But together, we climbed the highest mountain on the
planet. This ordinary family from Utopia, (just outside
of Barrie)Ontario, Canada, was the first family of four
EVER to summit Mount Everest.
The memories still make us smile, even while we shake
our heads in amazement. It sure gives us something to
talk about at the dinner table.
Public presentations
Since we returned, we’ve been asked repeatedly
to share our motivational story and stunning visuals
with groups of all sizes and interests. You don’t
have to have an interest in families or mountains to
be fascinated and inspired by this remarkable trek.
We use our speaking engagements to highlight how goal
setting, teamwork and pushing beyond perceived limitations
can help audience members achieve their dreams.
Being the only family to reach the summit, we had an
advantage over some other climbers. While they were
struggling to hold on for dear life, we managed to use
our combined skills to capture some of the most extraordinary
video footage and photographs of Mt. Everest you may
ever encounter. We used three cameras and captured over
2,000 photos and 50 short video clips. These images,
combined with the stories and life lessons learned;
are truly awe-inspiring.
Topics
We have prepared several presentations based on the
Everest Expedition theme, in either 1-hour or 2.5-hour
sessions. All have been tested and received very well
by small general-interest groups and at large corporate
functions. References are available upon request. Customized
presentations are also an option.

Motivational
Have you ever watched Discovery Channel™ and
been swept away by the majesty of what you see? It’s
awesome in the true meaning of the word.
Imagine that calibre of imagery and storytelling, LIVE
right in your living room. Our motivational presentations
feel like an intimate slide show with friends, except
they are in a room with a hundred or more people. The
stories are real and touch the audience in a personal
way. Attendees leave the presentation energized with
feelings of overwhelming inspiration.
Corporate and Small Business
This is the perfect key-note presentation to kick-off
celebrations, launches, campaigns and conferences. Corporate
audiences enjoy all the same photographs and video elements
of the motivational presentation, but gain professional
development insight from a more business-focused approach.
Themes of teamwork, planning, risk management, and overcoming
obstacles are woven throughout the session for an additional
entertainment-meets-education value. Custom themes can
also be integrated into this presentation to ensure
a perfect fit for your organization.
School
The Mallorys climbed as a family – and they
offer presentations as a family. Siblings and young
adults Laura and Alan both offer presentations specifically
designed to inspire teens and other young men and women
to reach beyond their limits and reach their full potential.
These talks are funny, serious, moving and aimed directly
at reaching the students and motivating them towards
success. The goal is to leave each audience member with
the thought: “If these young people can reach
the top of the world – so can I!”
