Join us as Angel unravels how she was bred into skiing and originally started out with a different goal for her career. We talk about how visualization, meditation, and deep breathing have improved her performance and lifestyle; Angel explains why these self-care methods are crucial parts of the gig and explains how she benefits from the practices. We also discuss how her “feminine approach to fear” and her not-so-secret-mantra have made her one of the best skiers in the world.
Listen in to learn important insights from Angel on how to take your skiing to the next level.
