What happens when an athlete's career is derailed by injuries, only to find a new, unexpected path to fulfillment? Join us on the Steep Stuff Podcast as we sit down with Jordyn Milbrath from Boulder, Colorado, who transformed her passion for soccer into a love for running. Jordan opens up about her inspiring journey, from her YouTube channel "Chasing Joe" to her bold decision with her fiancé Chase to leave corporate America and start a business. Their successful lightning bolt earrings collaboration with Walters and Hogsett is just the tip of the iceberg in this tale of resilience, freedom, and entrepreneurial spirit.

In this episode, we unpack the complexities of embracing multiple athletic identities and the pressures that come with competition. Jordan and other athletes share how diversifying interests can lead to greater resilience and joy in the journey. We also dive into the major life transitions, such as moving from a corporate career to an adventurous, more fulfilling lifestyle. Expect to hear stories about bikepacking adventures, the highs and lows of the Cirque Series races, and the mental clarity achieved through these pursuits. This is a conversation that underscores the importance of finding fulfillment beyond the confines of traditional roles.

But that's not all—get ready for some wild tales and thoughtful reflections. We touch on everything from the emotional pressures of high-stakes competitions to thrilling mountain biking excursions. Jordan shares her encounters with nature’s mysteries, including gripping anecdotes about Bigfoot and aliens. We wrap up with a discussion on personal goals for the year ahead and an exciting new business venture focused on holistic healing. Whether you’re an athlete, an entrepreneur, or someone looking for inspiration, this episode offers a rich tapestry of insights and adventures.
