Big Trade-Offs We're Still Thinking About: Reflections from Jeni + Angie after 12 conversations with athletes, activists, and adventurers

from For The Love Of: Trade-offs we make in pursuit of our passions · host Angie Marie + Jeni Stembridge

Having produced and released 12 podcast episodes into the wild feels like a reason to celebrate.   Listen as Angie and Jeni revisit some of the thought nuggets that guests shared that they haven’t stopped thinking about.   So far on For The Love Of, we’ve spoken with…   A BFF who threw her life upside down to go to Antarctica A Mt. Everest guide who made a first ski descent on K2 A dancer who used movement to climb out of depression A kayaker who completed the "Everest of kayaking" A kitesurfer who stopped numbing out and faced his trauma A rock climber who lost a partner in an avalanche then married his friend A climate activist who teaches us to be imperfect advocates A kayaking coach who teaches women mental agility A snowboarder who fights sexism in the freeride world A teacher who lost a toe on Mt. Rainier, relearned how to walk, and pursued a life of adventure A mountaineer who left her corporate career to explore high mountains, got cancer, then climbed even higher A professor who got a PhD at the sacrifice of mental health and is in love with lichens   On this episode, Jeni and Angie listen back to some memorable moments and go a bit deeper into some of their favorite guest soundbites.   You’ll get some great dinner table discussion starters, including:   Have you ever had to release an identity around your previous badassery? What is something you don’t find risky but most people do? Would you rather have three ski trips with friends when you’re 65, or one ski trip when you’re 25? Could a 100 mile race ever feel boring after doing enough of them? Is midnight too late for an end to board game night? Or is Angie lame and old now? Why do we become more fearful as adults compared to childhood? Is the way you do one thing the way you do everything? What would you do if you were training for the Olympics and tore your ACL? Would you hide the fact that you’re peeing if you were a woman stuck in a tent with a bunch of men? Do rules make people more creative? Are you willing to do your passion for money, or would that take away from it? How can you get people who disagree with your opinions to consider your view? Can you name five plant species that live in your neighborhood?   Calling all listeners!
