Overcoming Injury with Winter Olympian Carly Margulies

08/01/22 • 34 min

If you are a skier, chances are at some point you’ve imagined what it would be like to compete at the Olympics. For most of us - daydreaming while we wait in the lift line is as close as we’ll ever get. But for Carly Margulies, it was more than just a dream - it was her life’s purpose.

Carly’s decision to chase her dream led her down a road that very few have traveled. Over the last 8 years, she has had more setbacks than most skiers experience in a lifetime. After 7 knee surgeries, she thought that her days of competing at a high level were over. But with a little luck and a whole lot of grit, she overcame the odds and earned her spot at the 2022 Winter Olympics in China.

Join us for Episode 2 of Adventurous Minds with Carly Margulies, as we cover growing up skiing, overcoming the physical and mental challenges of injuries, realizing her Olympic dreams, and competing on the world’s greatest stage.

In our conversation, we cover growing up and finding his way to the mountains, years of dirtbagging in Yosemite, international exploration, first ascents, "acupuncture for the soul", and giving back to the places and communities you love. All this, and more, inside Episode 1 of Adventurous Minds. We'll see you out there!

Taking Flight with Jeff Shapiro

A lifetime of adventure has given Jeff Shapiro a unique perspective. He sat down with us to share some of what he's learned about his mind and body, the world, and life itself.
As an all around adventure athlete and outdoorsman, it’s hard to find an activity that Jeff doesn’t do. He’s cultivated a wide range of skills over his life and spends much of his time in the air - as a pilot, sky jumping, BASE jumping, wingsuit flying, hang gliding, or paragliding. He also practices falconry with his bird Cyrus, runs ultra marathons, surfs, and is an elite level rock and alpine climber. But, best of all, Jeff spreads inspiration, wisdom, and good will wherever he roams.
We're excited to share his story with you and hope he inspires you to get out there and get busy livin'.
