TODAY’S GUEST

This week, Eva and Olga are delighted to have Kristen Ulmer in the Dream Big Podcast Show. Kristen is a master facilitator, thought leader and fear specialist who radically challenges existing norms around the subject of this deeply misunderstood emotion. Kristen gained international notoriety as a mogul specialist on the US Ski team, and for 12 years, was widely considered as the best female big mountain extreme skier in the world. Known for enormous cliff jumps and you-fall-you die descents, she became sponsored by the likes of Red Bull, Ralph Lauren, and Nikon. Her mastery of other danger sports including paragliding, ice and rock climbing, kiteboarding, adventure mountain biking, and flying trapeze also gained her the outdoor industry vote as most extreme woman athlete in North America, beating all danger-sports stars, not just skiers.

In this episode, Kristen shares why it is better to embrace fear than to avoid it. We never thought we could have so much fun talking about fear, and you’ll be surprised by the discussion too!
