[06:38] It’s in her nature to push the envelope. [10:00] Changes Kim has observed in the industry. [10:28] Kids doing big mountain skiing now, grew up with it. [14:00] How Kim runs her clinics and trains skiers. [20:20] When people can’t see where they’re going, it’s stressful and intimidating. [22:18] Helping other skiers feel confident. Quotes: “I was fortunate enough to start skiing a hundred days a year from the time I was twelve.” “The envelope has just been pushed so much harder...especially for the women.” “When I’m guiding and teaching...I really try to take small steps and build confidence.” Resources: Wagner Custom Skis

Kim Reichhelm: The Most Important Thing Is Having Fun

On this episode of the "Sponsored" podcast, Kim Reichhelm, one of  the original badasses of freesking, joins host Mike Powell. Reicchelm is candid about her upbringing with a stern father and her current rock and roll lifestyle. The veteran ski racer, commentator, two-time World Extreme Ski Champion, and the figurehead of the highly successful "Ski With Kim" camps, Reichhelm discusses how she was made fun of at school, but found herself through sports. "All of my confidence came from sports because I was a horrible student," she says. "I was dyslexic, I had difficulty reading, I really, really struggled in the classroom and the playground was where all my confidence came from. I was respected." Reichhelm was also one of the first skiers to turn herself into a successful brand, and she talks about how she had to choose between ski racing and having fun. For her, the choice was easy.  "I had to say I'm either going to win the tour, or I'm going to quit. I wanted to win, and then I realized that in order to win the tour I was going to have to drink less beer and focus on ski racing and not traveling around to Miami Beach between ski races, so I decided to stop racing."  For Reichhelm, who always followed her heart, it couldn't have worked out better.
