MEET YOUR
EXPEDITION LEADERS

A challenge of this magnitude requires more than logistics.
It requires leadership.
Experience. Preparation. Trust.

KILI48 was created for people seeking more than a traditional adventure. We believe extraordinary environments reveal extraordinary potential. This expedition exists to help ambitious individuals discover what becomes possible when challenge meets preparation, breath, community, and conscious leadership.

Mount Kilimanjaro is not simply a destination. It is a mirror.
A teacher. A test of resilience,
preparation, and mindset.

THOSE WHO LEAD

Expedition Leader & Advanced Wim Hof Method Instructor

SANDRA ABDUL KARIM

Sandra is an Advanced Wim Hof Method Instructor, Oxygen Advantage Functional Breathing Instructor, expedition and retreat leader, founder of Office Yoga Malmö, and has summited Mount Kilimanjaro in 46 hours.

She combines breathwork, mindset training, and transformational leadership to help people build resilience, self-trust, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. Through conscious challenge and nervous system-focused practices, she empowers people to grow beyond their comfort zones and discover who they are capable of becoming.

For Sandra, KILI48 is about far more than reaching a summit. It is a transformational journey that reveals what becomes possible when breath, mindset, and resilience come together in a demanding environment. Her mission is to help people discover that discomfort is not something to fear, but a gateway to growth, freedom, and a deeper connection to themselves.

“Who you become on the journey is what truly matters.”
