Many consider being a mom to be the hardest job in the world, and there’s good reason for that. Throw in trying to balance life as a professional skier, considering the risks taken by athletes at the highest level, and things arguably get a bit more intense.

You’ll laugh, you’ll feel inspired, and you might just rethink what it means to balance life on and off the mountain.“
