Steph Jagger had her ripcord moment at the top of a ski lift. She was living in Vancouver where she had built a great life for herself.

She was a management consultant for a PR firm and had always chased success in every aspect of her life when one day she went skiing with some friends and at the top of the chairlift she saw a sign that read, ‘raise restraining device.’

Raise Restraining Device

That line turned into a mantra that would catapult her into her mission of chasing snow for 1 full year skiing around the world. She took out a second mortgage on her house, sold everything she owned except for her ski equipment and set out to crack open her life, and along the way she set a world record for skiing 4 million vertical feet in under 12 months.

In this episode we discuss... The financial, physical and emotional planning Steph took to prepare for her trip. Taking out a second mortgage on her home and selling everything she owned. Buying a bundle of plane tickets and leaving with her ski equipment and laptop. The breakdown in New Zealand and when she felt her life cracking open. What kept her going when she was emotionally and physically spent. Breaking the world record by skiing 4 million vertical feet in 12 months. Writing her book, Unbound: A Story of Snow and Self-Discovery
