A platform to help under-represented professionals accelerate their careers
and impact by providing tools, support, and strategies to build confidence and ownership.

But why is it called the 29k Club?

Mount Everest rises to 29,032 feet... the highest point on Earth. For many talented professionals from under-represented backgrounds, a career can feel like that climb: steep, uncertain, and often lonely. The Black Sherpa 29k Club exists to change that. It’s a space to share knowledge, lift each other up, and make sure no one has to do it alone.

Put simply…

We help talented people stop waiting for permission and start driving their growth by:

Setting bold, uncompromising goals

Taking accountability for how they show up and lead

Building habits and mindsets that sustain progress under pressure

Facing and overcoming barriers holding them back

Following a clear growth plan supported by community

The 29k Club is a personal development community for talented professionals. We help turn quiet ambition into visible success by building confidence, navigating workplace dynamics, and enjoying the process of learning and growing at work.

Who is it for?

Ambitious professionals ready to take control of their career in life sciences.

Under-represented talent determined to break through barriers and reach their potential.

Go-getters eager to master soft skills that amplify impact, connection, and influence.

Who is it NOT for?

Complacent professionals not committed to continuous learning or growth in the next 6–12 months.

Solo flyers who prefer to navigate their careers without the power of community, mentorship, or executive-driven coaching.

Comfort seekers avoiding environments that challenge them to break through career barriers

Blame Shifters unwilling to take radical accountability for their journey... even in the face of systemic barriers.
