Breaking Trail

Breaking Trail. Every other week, Lisa Gerber talks to people who are working to make the world more habitable, more humane, and more loving. In the words of author and environmentalist David Orr, they are the “peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of every kind” that this world needs so desperately. Through their stories, we cover themes of hope, courage, and action. This is a show for people who want to contribute to the world rather than take from it. We are living life on our own terms, defining our own version of success. We are breaking trail. Interested in being a guest?

Laurenne Ross races the World Cup alpine circuit and is ranked one of the top-ten best speed skiers in the world. She’s been to four World Championships and raced in the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia, and the 2018 Olympics in Pyeongchang, Korea. She has two World Cup podiums and many top-ten results. 

 

But man, racing is hard. In 2017, after a top ten year, she injured her knee - seriously enough that she almost missed the Olympics.  She rushed recovery to compete in 2018 but it just didn’t feel right. Laurenne took time off from ski racing last year and has just returned this season. I

 

Needless to say, it’s a roller coaster ride and Laurenne gives some straight talk on what it’s like to be in the world cup circuit. 

 

To balance the intensity Laurenne also has a love for art. Today we talk about staying focused. Being really really good at one thing, being present, the downside of goal setting and we wrap it up with some inspirational talk on favorite ski destinations in the world. 

 

With that, let’s listen in and gear up for what’s next.
