Let's start with your ability to well 64 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 2: the injuries. 65 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: Right. 66 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: So, I'm thinking I'm talking to a like like a 67 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: personal we've had similar which is not the case. 68 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 3: No, it's true, honestly, probably car accidents worse. 69 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: And because there's trump with there's trauma in that. But 70 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: I would imagine there's trauma in your spills. 71 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: No. 72 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I'm actually a little bit weird in 73 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 3: that way. I don't know car the trauma. I've actually 74 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,839 Speaker 3: talked to my therapist and he's like, Okay, let's let's 75 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 3: break down the trauma. Like, I actually don't have any traual. 76 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: I just feel like, you know, it happened, I'm injured, 77 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 3: Like I have to find a way through it. There's 78 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: no point in going back and holding on to whatever 79 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 3: it is that happened. And I always just look forward, 80 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 3: you know. And that's just and I it's easier said 81 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: than done. No, it's fascinating, but it's just how my 82 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: mind works. 83 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, but did you have to learn that or was 84 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: that always like that? 85 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 3: I think it honestly just comes from perspective from my mom. 86 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 3: She had a stroke when she had me, and she 87 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: was a bit disabled from she had She had problems 88 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 3: with her ankle, so she couldn't run, she couldn't ski 89 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 3: with me, she couldn't bike. She had really a lot 90 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 3: of trouble with her balance. But it was something that 91 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: she no matter what she did, she could never overcome it. 92 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: And so I had this perspective of Okay, I'm out 93 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: here doing what I love to do. I got hurt. 94 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 3: I can be fixed, you know. I just have surgery. 95 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: I have to do the work, and I'll be back 96 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 3: on the mountain. So it was not like my mom 97 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: who can't right right, So that was always my first back. 98 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 3: If I was lucky to have the opportunity to come back. 99 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty great because I fat and it's inspiring 100 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: to me so deeply because I had so much trauma. 101 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: And then I'm at a point it's been like four years, 102 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: and actually the trauma I think made me better. It 103 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: made me like roll out things projects like this, and 104 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 2: it made me slow down my. 105 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: Life and all types of stuff. 106 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: But I realize now, just now four years later, that 107 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm holding onto the trauma a little bit 108 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: too much. And I see somebody like you, and I'm 109 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: watching footage of you, like rolling down a hill at 110 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: eighty after skiing eighty miles an hour, and then you're 111 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: like getting up and like, okay, fix my name because 112 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: I got to get back out there, which is insane. 113 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 3: I'm a little insane, it is true, But I just 114 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,559 Speaker 3: think I think about it logically, and what's the point 115 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: of hanging onto it. It's only hurting me, Like I 116 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 3: need to learn have perspective from what happened, and how 117 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 3: can I be better going forward? And I've always felt 118 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 3: that all of my injuries have given me, you know, 119 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: life lessons. I've become a better person, a stronger person mentally. 120 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: I just learned so much about myself. And it's hard 121 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: to like make something positive out of something that's so 122 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 3: traumatic and negative. You know, if you look at all 123 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: the things that you've done since your car crash, you 124 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: know it's changed for you know, you know it's giving 125 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 3: you a different level of drive. That's really positive. 126 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's totally positive. I just think I don't know, 127 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of fear. 128 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: Like sometimes i'm driving, I have like a little flashback 129 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 2: or that's normal sometimes. 130 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: I just had these shots done. 131 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: Shout out to doctor Abby by the way he gave 132 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 2: me these. I tried these like plasma injections therapy, No, 133 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: not PRP is a new thing that he does them 134 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 2: in Miami. 135 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: It's placenta. It's placenta injection. 136 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: Into the scar tissue breaks up, the scar tissue gets 137 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: mobility and all of that. And I was so irritable 138 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: from just a little numbing shots and he was like, 139 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: it's not that painful. 140 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, I know, it's not that painful. I'm just 141 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: freaking out. 142 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, He's like, yeah, you're your ground zero, and so 143 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 2: it's all trauma. And his wife was there, who does 144 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 2: breath work, so she's helping me breathe through it. 145 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: And I'm laying there in. 146 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 2: The doctor's office and she's like, you getta breathe through it. 147 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: And I'm like, this is stupid. 148 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 2: This has been four years, Like like, this is me 149 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 2: talking to myself. Get over it already, you know. 150 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 3: Like, but I think it's also important to like acknowledge 151 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 3: your feelings, you know, like and then get over it 152 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 3: well at some point. At some point, I mean, I 153 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 3: think it's a process, yeah, you know, and everyone, like 154 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 3: I process certain things differently than others in skiing and 155 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 3: crashing is just something that I have a weird way 156 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 3: of processing. But it's important to acknowledge the feelings, and 157 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: I think sometimes we try to push them away and 158 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 3: that actually makes it worse because we're not acknowledging it. 159 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 3: I think we have to acknowledge it, process it, and 160 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: then we can move forward. I just do that really quickly. 161 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: And skiing it's fascinating to me. I think there's so 162 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: much to learn in that. 163 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 2: But have you had to deal with in other parts too, 164 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: or is it just skiing, Like, have you had any other. 165 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I've said had three since I've retired from skiing. 166 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: You recover from those? 167 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's going to be a lifelong process, 168 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 3: to be honest. I have a plate and eighteen screws 169 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: in my arm and it's just it's always there. I 170 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 3: play tennis all the time, and it just it hurts 171 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 3: me and it zings me, and you know, it's just 172 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 3: like a it's never gonna go away. It's always a reminder. 173 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: And my knees like they hurt like hell every morning 174 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: that I wake up. But I also at the same time, 175 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: like I don't regret it. I don't regret any decision 176 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 3: that I made in my skiing career. I wouldn't change 177 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: it for the world. So I kind of I try 178 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 3: to think about it as like, hey, I accomplished a 179 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 3: lot and this is just a reminder of what I 180 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: did in a good way. 181 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: You are so positive. 182 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 3: Does it never fail you? 183 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: Though? 184 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 3: It does? Like skiing is kind of like in my body, 185 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 3: it's kind of my superpower, and then like emotions are 186 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 3: not my superpower. So really, yeah, it's like skiing was 187 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: always kind of I put on my Superman You know, costume, 188 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: and it was like my alter ego, and then in 189 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: real life I was never quite as confident. So I 190 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 3: don't know, it's like my alter ego. 191 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, I see that. I feel. 192 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: I always think that, like we've had a couple of 193 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: great athletes on the Pie, we had Derek Jeter, Mike Tyson, 194 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: and I always think there's something about extraordinary athletes that you 195 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: have to have some sort of critical moments and then 196 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: to perform at your best, because a lot of us 197 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: would get like in. 198 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: Those critical moments, we get scared the most. 199 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 2: That's what we are the most, Like, oh god, it's 200 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: the big moment. 201 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: I'm so nervous. 202 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 3: Like you get love for those moments, That's what I mean. 203 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: You have that too, You have that you live for it. 204 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I don't know. I always go back 205 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 3: to Billy Jean King like pressure as a privilege, and 206 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: I look at it as such an amazing opportunity. And 207 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 3: of course when I was younger, you know, I did 208 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 3: get really nervous and I had to figure out a way, 209 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 3: you know, to deal with it. But once I like 210 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: figured it out and I harnessed it and I use 211 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 3: it to my advantage like I use those emotions to 212 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 3: propel me down the mountain. It's so empowering once you 213 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 3: do get it, because it's it is an opportunity, you know, 214 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: and and if you fuck it up, you fuck it up. 215 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know that's life. 216 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 3: But I like going in just full steam ahead. You know, 217 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: I'm prepared, I'm driven. I'm gonna try my best at this. 218 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: If I fail, flat out my face, which I've done 219 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 3: many times in not just skiing, but that's you know, 220 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 3: that's life. I learn and I move forward. 221 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: How did you figure it? 222 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: Like? 223 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: What did you figure out? What is the thing? 224 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: Like? Was there something you learned to tell yourself? What 225 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 2: is the conversation in your head that gets you from. 226 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 3: Never be afraid to fail? Because whenever I was afraid 227 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 3: to fall or afraid not to succeed, I was done. 228 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: Forget it. My might as well not even have started 229 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 3: the race. You have to be willing to put yourself 230 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 3: out there, which you know again like no one wants 231 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 3: to be disappointed. No one wants to let yourself down 232 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 3: or other people's down. People down, my parents down, my 233 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 3: family down. Once you can move past that and say, 234 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 3: you know who cares? I'm gonna try my best. If 235 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 3: I fail trying my best, there's nothing more I could 236 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 3: have done, you know what I mean. So I think 237 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: there's a piece in that almost Yeah, but yeahah, like 238 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 3: you have to be okay with you know, giving your 239 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 3: best and never having regrets. Regrets are or again another 240 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 3: piece of the puzzle that will eat you alive. 241 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: Fascinating. 242 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you just tell yourself, fuck it, fuck it? 243 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, who cares? 244 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 3: Who cares? 245 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: Try my best? 246 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 2: If I fall on my face at eighty miles an hour, literally. 247 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I in front of the whole world. I actually 248 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: talked a lot with The Rock with DJ about it 249 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 3: as well. We're on the same page in that sense, 250 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 3: you know, never be afraid to fail, like always putting 251 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 3: yourself out there, and it's a hard thing to actually do. 252 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 3: You know, it's easy to say, but it's sometimes really 253 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 3: hard to do. 254 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: So I know you are friends with The Rock too. 255 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: Has he ever given you because he seems like a 256 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: great advice giver. 257 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 3: He literally is the hardest working person I've ever met. 258 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 3: Like I don't know if he's I think he's like 259 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 3: Dracula and he's like you know, it's like he feeds 260 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: off his cheap day pancakes and what else whatever else 261 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: it's always got well.

Like when you would go 281 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: out there, no no fear? How I know you say 282 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 2: you do your best and you go. 283 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: But I love so. First of all, I'm an adrenaline junkie, 284 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,719 Speaker 3: So I love going fast like I love. 285 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: Do you like the fear or there is no fear. 286 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: There's no fear, it's not I get. I like the butterflies. 287 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 3: Like when I was a kid, I used to climb 288 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 3: all the trees, like all the highest trees. I never 289 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 3: was worried about falling or you know, and when I 290 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 3: started skiing, I just always want to be fast, like 291 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 3: faster than my grandparents, faster than my parents, you know. 292 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 3: Every time I was on the mountain, I just want 293 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 3: to go fast, fast, fast, So that part of me 294 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 3: is is definitely unique. And I think that's why that 295 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: made me a good downhiller, because I was never afraid, 296 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 3: and when the course was challenging or their weather was challenging, 297 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 3: I actually really enjoyed, you know, watching other skiers faces 298 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 3: because they would get nervous or scared, and I saw 299 00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 3: that I need this to my advantage. Crazy, But I think. 300 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: Are you aware though, how unique? 301 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 3: And I know it's weird. Yeah, it's different. 302 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 2: Because that showed up for you, Like are you able 303 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 2: to implement that into other parts of your life? 304 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: Like you're because you know there's. 305 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 2: Fear and like a first date where there's fear, and 306 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: like I don't know, speaking publicly. 307 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 3: Or yeah, you know, I think it's helped me a 308 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 3: lot in like public speaking, Like I'm much better when 309 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 3: I just wing it. You know, if I'm prepared, then 310 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: it's like I have to do something that. 311 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: In the sphere there trying to think of. 312 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: Fear shows up in anywhere in your life. 313 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 3: I mean, fear shows up like if I get a 314 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 3: speeding ticket. You know, I've lost my life since one four, So. 315 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 2: I'm not surprised by the way. I'm totally not surprised. 316 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: You're like, no, well, that's not fear, that's like shit. 317 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 3: I know, it's definitely it's a different emotion. 318 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: It's different. 319 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 3: But no, I think I do my best one. I 320 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 3: don't stress about the outcome whatever that is. 321 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: So it's an overall thing. It's not just. 322 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 3: And I will say it probably I probably should have 323 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 3: been like more skeptical at some points in my life 324 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 3: where I was just too open and accepting and like didn't. 325 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 3: It's not necessarily fear, but it's trust. Also, you know, 326 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: I'm like my mother, I'm very trusting in what and 327 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 3: just like relationships or you know, not even necessarily romantic ones, 328 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 3: but just in people in general. And I've definitely learned 329 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 3: how to be more reserved because you have only so 330 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 3: much energy and you can't give it out to everybody, right, 331 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 3: And yeah, so it's that's something I've had to learn 332 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 3: because I am fearless in that way. Like I just 333 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 3: I don't, I don't know. I take everyone for face value, 334 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: and I sometimes maybe shouldn't. 335 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 2: Well, that's usually a thing that happens to women, is 336 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: like if you have a bad relationship and then like 337 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 2: you don't trust men again for the next for many 338 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: years or you know, but you don't seem to do 339 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 2: that again to your life. You probably should, but you don't. 340 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 3: But nobody else that's romantic you should. 341 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 2: But then also sometimes it could ruin a relationship because 342 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: you're taking your old stuff and putting it into something 343 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 2: new and then how you know. 344 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, that's that's a hard one. 345 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: You hope it was romantic, they do, Yeah, you know, but. 346 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 3: I do realize that, you know, things don't always work 347 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 3: out the way. 348 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: You think they will, but you get back up. 349 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 3: You get back up. 350 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 2: In true Lindsay volume in a good fight.

You don't make mistakes, but 353 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: what does that do to you? What do you learn 354 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: from that? Leg? 355 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 3: I mean I was at twenty two. I don't know 356 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 3: what you know at twenty two, But. 357 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: Why did you even think you should get married at 358 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: twenty two? 359 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 3: I can't even tell you. I don't know, I really 360 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, it was a hard time in 361 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 3: my life. My parents were divorced and I had been 362 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 3: living on my own since I was fifteen, you know, 363 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: traveling on the. 364 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 4: You're looking for somebody to do it with, just you know, 365 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 4: I thought, you know, I thought this is what I'm 366 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 4: supposed to do, and then it definitely wasn't and I had. 367 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 3: To course correct and figure it out. And it was hard, 368 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 3: I think for me because at a young age. You know, 369 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: I was very successful at that age, and I had 370 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 3: never really been in control of my money, and I 371 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: wish I had been, so I had to learn the 372 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 3: hard way. But that's one thing that I like really 373 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 3: try to teach also in like with my foundation, just 374 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: financial independence, you know, having you know, women having control 375 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 3: over their own big accounts and having you know, did. 376 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: You not have that at the beginning, You didn't have 377 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: like control of your stuff? 378 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 3: Wow, well we all make mistakes. Yeah, I just you know, 379 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 3: I was so young. I didn't know, you know, who's 380 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 3: going to manage my money? And how does that work? 381 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 3: And I, you know, was so focused on my skiing, 382 00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: you know, and it just was Yeah, I had to 383 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: rely on someone and that's what happened. 384 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 2: What is the big lesson though for you? Like how 385 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 2: do you operate differently then? 386 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 3: I think in general, you know, managing your own money 387 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 3: first of all, Like, no matter what happens, you know, 388 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 3: if I get married, if I don't get married, I 389 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 3: always need mine, you know. And I think that's true 390 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 3: for all women. You know. It just gives you a 391 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: level of freedom. No matter what you're facing in your life, 392 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 3: you always have that that's yours. 393 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: It's funny you talk about money and stuff because I 394 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: think I've heard you say skiing wasn't it's not necessarily 395 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 2: a big financial no like women, but I think women 396 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: in sports in general. 397 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, women in sports in general, it's very hard to 398 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 3: make money unless you play tennis. 399 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: And then when you think about how much time, effort, magic. 400 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 2: Skill that you have to have and then to not 401 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 2: be financially compensated for that. 402 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 3: It's hard. I mean, I think you know, ski racing 403 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 3: is a great sport. You know, if you look at 404 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 3: the Olympics, it's one of the most popular in the 405 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 3: in the winter Olympics, but in general, you know, most 406 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 3: people only know about skiing every four years, So you know, 407 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 3: how do you make that? What do you do in 408 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 3: the four years the three years in between, and how 409 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: do you make money? So on the World Cup, if 410 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: you want a race, it was thirty thousand Swiss ranks, 411 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 3: which then got converted into you know, euros or whatever 412 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 3: I was before the euro it was whatever Austrian shillings 413 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 3: or German marks whatever, and then it's converted into US 414 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 3: dollars and then you you tax on it. So about 415 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 3: the end of the day, you're supposed to survive on 416 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 3: that getting nothing. So you know, and that's what my 417 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 3: father always told me, and I will give a lot 418 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 3: of credit for that, is that, you know, I have 419 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 3: to be more than an athlete because there's no money 420 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 3: in it. You have to earn it. You have to 421 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 3: go and be more. And you know, it's like Peegaboo 422 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 3: Street was my idol and she had this big deal 423 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 3: with an athletic company and it was like the first 424 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 3: of its kind. But besides that, it wasn't there's really 425 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 3: no endorsement deals we had for women. And so one 426 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 3: of one of the things that I did in my 427 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: career was talk to the guys and I because I 428 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 3: there's if there's no transparency, how am I supposed to 429 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 3: know if I'm getting underpaid compared to a man or not. 430 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 3: So I asked them point blank and some of the 431 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 3: top male racers actually told me what they were making 432 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 3: and you were like oh, And I was like, whoa, Okay, 433 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 3: I'm on in the same ballpark and I need to 434 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 3: fix that.

I mean, you have to at that point, 455 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 3: you don't subject yourself too. 456 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 2: Because this doesn't sound fun to me at all. Guys, 457 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 2: by the way, this life is not good. Like first 458 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: of all, it's not even just the injuries alone in 459 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: the whatever you got going on in your the screws 460 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: and the bolts, and but you also, like it's the 461 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 2: discipline of having to be able to compete at that level. 462 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 2: You're working out every however many hours a day, and like, none. 463 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: Of that sounds fun to me. That doesn't sound like 464 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 1: a good time. You love it? 465 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 3: I love it? 466 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: Like, yes, I love this, I think to each own. 467 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: Like I think a lot of people would think, you know, 468 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 3: speaking in front of people or being on a radio 469 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 3: show or whatever like that is torture. It's not tortreoss 470 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: but like difficult and that they wouldn't want to do it. 471 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 3: I know if you're comfortable doing it, Like I can 472 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 3: never do what you do and you can never do 473 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 3: what I do. And so that's what that's what makes us, 474 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 3: you know unique. So I don't know I love in 475 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 3: the beginning, Like let's face that I was, you know, 476 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 3: a young teenager. I didn't like you know, my dad 477 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 3: made me run a mile every day, so and he 478 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 3: made me do a hundred push ups and one hundred 479 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: sit ups because I had to pass a test to 480 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 3: make the US ski team. Got it, and trust me, 481 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 3: I did not love that. But you know, as time 482 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 3: went on, like you realize that the more work I 483 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: put in, the more I get out of it, And 484 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 3: so you end up loving it because it inevidably makes 485 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 3: you better. So that's that's like how I processed in 486 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 3: my mind. And I would sit on the bike, you know, 487 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 3: for hours, and I would just think about whoever I 488 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 3: wanted to beat that season, or you know, like I'm 489 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 3: going to be this much faster because I'm spending this 490 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: much time m hm working out. 491 00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: I was going to ask you about that, get like 492 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: your keys to being so disciplined. But I guess that's it, right, 493 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: like you everything you think about the outcome. 494 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I always believe that. You know, I never cut corners, 495 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 3: if you know, I like having plans. If my my 496 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 3: trainer gives me a workout program, like I'm gonna do 497 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 3: every single thing in that program to the tea, I 498 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: will not cut any. 499 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: Wine because I'm such a whiner you are.

And I definitely think that, 585 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 3: you know, I was pretty insecure you know, at a 586 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 3: lot of points in my life. 587 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 1: Life when and how and why. 588 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I've been traveling the world without rental 589 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: supervision since I was like nine, so you know, like 590 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 3: I definitely felt there was something that's crazy. I like, 591 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 3: think about it now, you send your kid on an 592 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 3: airplane to go to Austria at nine at nine, I 593 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 3: don't know. Definitely not these days. But you know, I 594 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 3: think it made me independent. But I also, you know, 595 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 3: I think I lacked certain like social cues and you know, 596 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: like in relationships. I don't think that was always easy. 597 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 3: Like all I knew was competition and. 598 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: Oh I get that. 599 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So when did that switch for you? How 600 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 2: did you, like, how did you become aware and then 601 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 2: and then what did you have to do? 602 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 3: I think I learned over time through trial and error, 603 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 3: which is honestly how I learned a lot about my 604 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 3: life is just trying, like being not afraid to fail, 605 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 3: just trying things and Okay, this didn't work. Why did 606 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 3: this not work? And also figuring out like who am 607 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 3: I outside of skiing? You know, you're not what you do, 608 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 3: and that was hard for me to figure out. And honestly, 609 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 3: like I think in the last two years, I finally 610 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 3: really like wholeheartedly figure out who I am as a 611 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 3: person and nothing to do with skiing, even though it's 612 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 3: what I love to do. That's not who I am. 613 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you about that, because even when 614 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,959 Speaker 2: you're watching your docment, it's like about your final season, 615 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 2: it's like your whole life since you're nine. 616 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is who I am. 617 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 2: This is my purpose to be great, to be a great, 618 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: the best skier in the world. And then all of 619 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 2: a sudden you're not that anymore. Then after the whole life, 620 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 2: So what am I? 621 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: Who am I? And what is my purpose? 622 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? Like what do I bring to the world? 623 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: This is probably pretty com like for athletes who retire. 624 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 3: That's why you see a lot of athletes having a 625 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 3: really hard time. You know, a lot of athletes have 626 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 3: gambling problems. They you know, abuse drugs and alcohol, and 627 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 3: it's a really hard place to be in. And also 628 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 3: it's because you've always thought you yourself to be invincible 629 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 3: as well, you know, like especially in team sports, you 630 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 3: know you have to, like football, for example, like you 631 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 3: have to believe that your career is gonna last forever. 632 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 3: It's kind of a mentality. But then it stops the 633 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 3: check stop, like what do you do? And it's a 634 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 3: hard it's a really hard reality to face. And I 635 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 3: knew for me, it was either going to go extremely 636 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 3: in one way or the other. So I went extreme, 637 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 3: like I went super clean. I like was working out 638 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 3: all the time and definitely too far to that end. 639 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 3: But I just it was kind of a a course 640 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 3: correction that I had to just figure out, Okay, who 641 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 3: am I? What's my next move? What do I do? 642 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 3: What's my passion? Like, what's my passion in life besides 643 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 3: going really fast? 644 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: And what did you figure out? 645 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: So I figured out, like through my psychologist that you know, 646 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,479 Speaker 3: it's like looking at skiing. What do I love about skiing? 647 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 3: I love the feeling of freedom. When I stand at 648 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 3: the top of the mountain, I feel like anything is possible, 649 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 3: Like I am in control of my life. So how 650 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 3: do I get that? Like what in life now makes 651 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 3: me feel that way? Sometimes it's driving my car. I 652 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: feel like I'm. 653 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: At driving really fast. 654 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 2: Probably, yeah, it's a problem, you know. 655 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 3: I just like contl Yes, not necessarily control, but the 656 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 3: feeling of anything is possible. So when I do things now, 657 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 3: it's like that's how I find my passion. It's like 658 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 3: when I think about doing something like creating a TV 659 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 3: show or a movie, does that make me feel the 660 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: same type of passion. Does that make me excited in 661 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 3: that way? And a lot of the time it does, 662 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 3: And that's like, those are the directions that I go in. 663 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 3: But I also figured out, like, so that's what drives me, 664 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 3: that's my passion. But who I am is still the 665 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 3: same person I've always been. I'm just a kid from Minnesota. 666 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 3: You know, I'm a flat lander.

Yeah, 796 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 3: but most people I think aren't willing to put in 797 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 3: the sacrifices that it takes to reach your goals. Yeah, 798 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 3: you know, it's again it's like you can manifest it, 799 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 3: but like there are so many sacrifices that no one 800 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 3: sees that you know, you make every day that are 801 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 3: what get you to where you want to go, you know, 802 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 3: and I saw I've seen so many people in my 803 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 3: life that were more talented than I was, you know 804 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 3: that just they thought they were going to make it, 805 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 3: they manifested it. They didn't work hard like you you 806 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 3: have to put in the time. 807 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 2: Or they work hard, but they don't believe that they 808 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 2: can actually do it, or they let fear get in 809 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 2: the way, or they let outside noise get in the 810 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 2: way or all of those things. 811 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: Also, yeah, true, get in your way. 812 00:35:58,760 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 3: There's a lot of things that can get in your way. 813 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 3: It's a lot of things, mostly yourself. 814 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: That's pretty good and pretty and definitely true. I just 815 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:10,280 Speaker 1: interviewed this. I just interviewed recently Ryan Coogler. 816 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 2: Oh really, and we should have talked about filmmakers since 817 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 2: we're both going to be when we just talked about filmmaking. 818 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 2: But one of the things he talked about is his 819 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: work addiction. And it's like he realized that about himself 820 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: because he was going through some time in his life 821 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 2: where he was dealing with some personal issues and instead 822 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 2: of dealing with them, he was like buried in work. 823 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 2: And he was like, oh, shoot, I have like this 824 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 2: is a problem. I should be dealing with this, and 825 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 2: instead I'm making calls and doing when I'm working. Because 826 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 2: it's his work addiction, right, and he had to learn 827 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 2: how to balance it. I was like, but you love 828 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 2: what would you love it? So what's the problem?

And I think it's important 905 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 3: to find people that understand you, that support you, and 906 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 3: like you can rely on them no matter what, which 907 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 3: is really hard to find these days.

And by the way, 937 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: that would actually happen. 938 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 4: We have to go through it's it would be disrespectful 939 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 4: if we did. 940 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 3: We manifested if we did it. 941 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: It would be so crazy. But I love this for people. 942 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 2: It's another because we always talk about like speed dating 943 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 2: with men. It's always about like a man woman or 944 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 2: just romance, not even just man women, but romantic relationship. 945 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 2: We talk about dating or meeting or approaching them with 946 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 2: intention and all that. 947 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: But you actually you can. 948 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 3: Do that with just friendships. Yeah, I mean never really 949 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,280 Speaker 3: heard that. And it's also I think really important with women. 950 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 3: I don't really feel that supported by women all the time, really. Yeah, 951 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 3: especially in my skiing career. I mean a lot of 952 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 3: it is to do because we're competing against each other. 953 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 3: But you know, even with other athletes, I never really 954 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 3: felt like they wanted me to do well there was 955 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 3: always an underlying well, you know, I hope you do 956 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 3: well to an. 957 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: Extent, it's not better than me. 958 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 3: So it's like, you know, I think it's important to 959 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 3: support each other, and you know, I think our success 960 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 3: is you know, like my individual success is everyone's success, 961 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 3: and we you know, if we help each other, we'll 962 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 3: all become better. 963 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 1: That's so good. But the one thing I did. 964 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 2: Want to talk about so and you're honest about it, 965 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 2: like in the DOCA, So you talk about depression, dealing 966 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 2: with that, especially during times of change where you have 967 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 2: to walk away from something you've been doing your whole life, 968 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 2: this fear of that. I don't know, what have you 969 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 2: learned about that? And how do you get yourself out 970 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 2: of that? Because you can talk about getting yourself up 971 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 2: from an injury and the slopes, but getting yourself up 972 00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: from depression or from whatever emotional you know, toughness. 973 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I've been dealing with depression since I was 974 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,359 Speaker 3: a teenager. Really, yeah, I think it's been you know, 975 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 3: skiing can be it's like you're surrounded by people, but 976 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 3: it's so isolating at the same time, and I didn't 977 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 3: really know how to manage it. And you know, it 978 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 3: wasn't like now where everyone talks about depression and. 979 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: You know it's like, okay, it's like, no big deal. 980 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,839 Speaker 3: I could ask you that, yeah, casually, but at the time, 981 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 3: it was like, you know, never show signs of weakness 982 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 3: like and and I definitely felt as though, you know, 983 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 3: it was weakness, and so I I how I dealt 984 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 3: with it was I journaled, you know, I talked to 985 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: as if it was you know, like I didn't pretend 986 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 3: it was a therapist, but I'm just I need to 987 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 3: in some format, you know, talk about my emotions. And 988 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 3: you know, I was a teenager, like my parents reading divorced. 989 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 3: I was living on my own and I just didn't 990 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 3: know how to deal with everything, and being isolated and 991 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 3: not having a support system was really hard for me. 992 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,320 Speaker 3: And it kind of ebbed and flowed throughout my career. 993 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 1: And you always write you always journal, Well. 994 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 3: I always have since I was probably nine, but you know, 995 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 3: really leaned heavy into it when I needed it most. 996 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 3: You still have your nine journals. It's like Mickey Mouse, Yeah, 997 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 3: what was she? 998 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: What was what was her thing? Like? What was she 999 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: going through? 1000 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 3: It was like I didn't have very many friends, and 1001 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,280 Speaker 3: I was also when I was nine. I was traveling 1002 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 3: to Europe, you know, and I was traveling with kids 1003 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 3: that were thirteen to twenty one and I'm nine. So 1004 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, no one thinks, yes, yeah, that's 1005 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 3: a dear diary moment. And I would like sign it 1006 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 3: like love me. 1007 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: At least it was love. You were learning on yourself, trying. 1008 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,919 Speaker 3: I was trying. I was like, you know, for lack 1009 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 3: of support, you know, I I that's that was my 1010 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 3: only outlet. And you know, I think now there are 1011 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 3: so many more resources for athletes, for you know, kids, 1012 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 3: for you know, anyone. And I think probably the hardest 1013 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 3: time for me was when I retired, and you know, 1014 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 3: some extent, I use skiing as a crutch, you know, 1015 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 3: as a way to mitigate my emotions, and I put, 1016 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 3: you know, I kind of locked everything up and use 1017 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 3: it as fuel to raise And when that outlet is 1018 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 3: no longer there, you're stuck with all of these internal 1019 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 3: emotions that need to go someplace. So I started working 1020 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 3: with doctor Mondo. He works with a lot of athletes, 1021 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 3: and and he's been awesome. He does this thing called 1022 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 3: the cheat code, and he's just you know, it definitely 1023 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 3: made me think of life differently when that's when I said, 1024 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 3: you know, talking about what do I feel when I 1025 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 3: ski that you know makes me love it so much? 1026 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 3: Those are things I focus on with him. And but 1027 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: I think, you know, just being honest with yourself and 1028 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,959 Speaker 3: having a support system of people that you know don't 1029 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,320 Speaker 3: judge you, and you know, whether that's a therapist or 1030 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 3: your family, and just I think everyone needs an outlet, yes, 1031 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,280 Speaker 3: to find that balance. Yes, And that's an ongoing struggle 1032 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 3: like it, you know, I think that's just life. 1033 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, was there any one thing that you can tell 1034 00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 2: yourself to pick? Because I always feel like when you're 1035 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,280 Speaker 2: it's like if you just like sit in the darkness 1036 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 2: of like whatever moment that is. Like for me, I 1037 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 2: always the thing I never talked about this before. Like 1038 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 2: for me, the little trick I have is like remind 1039 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 2: myself that this is temporary. 1040 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: You just haven't figured it out yet. 1041 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 2: It's gonna you're gonna figure it out and then you'll 1042 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 2: get out of it. So this this sucks right here, 1043 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 2: but it's temporary. Like for me, that's a trick. That's 1044 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 2: for my own trick for my own self. This is 1045 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 2: what I don't sit in it because I think to myself, 1046 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,359 Speaker 2: if I didn't have that, how far could that. 1047 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: Rabbit hole go? 1048 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 3: You can go? 1049 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 2: And if I think about somebody who maybe doesn't have that, 1050 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 2: and you think, especially somebody young, Yeah, oh my god. 1051 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 2: I I never this is this is gonna be so 1052 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 2: bad forever. You could just go into you know, a thing. 1053 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 2: So for me, that little thing helps helps a lot. 1054 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 2: And I just wondered if you had anything, anything that. 1055 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 1: You tell yourself that lifts you up or get you 1056 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: out or no. 1057 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 3: I mean I think like when I really, like especially 1058 00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 3: when I was skiing, you know, I had this thing 1059 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 3: where I I did a lot of deep breathing and 1060 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 3: I would close my eyes like I can do this. 1061 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 3: I can do this. I can do this. Like just sometimes, 1062 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,439 Speaker 3: you know, when I whacked the self belief, I would 1063 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 3: just have to take take a moment and like internally 1064 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 3: believe in myself and then externally like let it out, 1065 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 3: and it helped. 1066 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 1: I can do this. I can do it and believe 1067 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 1: in yourself. 1068 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, even when it's hard. That's pretty good to 1069 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 3: because if you don't believe in yourself, then who's going. 1070 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: To in real life? When are you at your happiest. 1071 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 3: With my dogs on the sofa watching Law and Order 1072 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 3: and with then and Jerry's that's not specific or anything. 1073 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: We really could be. 1074 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 2: Friends because that sounds like the best tim ever.
