The 43-year-old was hit by a massive slide at approximately 6,600 to 7,000 meters in height, which claimed his life. The tragedy brought to focus Nims’ family, particularly his wife, Suchi Purja, and her role in his life and career. She once revealed how she managed the stress caused by her husband’s life-threatening job.
Suchi Purja developed a hack to manage stress caused by Nims Purja’s risky job
Suchi Purja was very supportive of her husband, Nims Purja’s mountaineering ventures. However, just like any other spouse, she was concerned about his well-being and admitted that it was quite “stressful” to deal with as a family member. During her appearance at the Kay Burley Show, she was asked about her mental state and stress management procedure when her husband was out on his mountaineering expeditions.
Suchi revealed that she was definitely worried, but she developed a specific hack to keep herself calm and stress-free. As per her, the only way she would not think too much about Nims’ work was by keeping herself busy. She stated that she voluntarily chose to do most of the behind-the-scenes work for her husband’s ‘Project Possible’, which was aired on Netflix as the documentary 14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible.
