In this episode of Making It To Milan, Ashley Cane sits down with Spanish Paralympic alpine skier and world champion parasurfer Maria Martín Granizo-Ferreiro. Representing Spain in alpine skiing, Maria shares how growing up in a ski-obsessed family shaped her path and how she became the first athlete with her disability to compete against able-bodied skiers in her region. She opens up about balancing elite alpine skiing with a world championship parasurfing career, navigating burnout, injury, and personal loss, and fighting for inclusion in competition. Maria also reflects on the mental strength required to believe in herself when others didn’t—and what it meant to qualify for the Milano Cortina Paralympic Games on the very last possible day, securing her place on her own terms.
