In this episode Nicole and Sarah host Tracy Keller, ski mom, and Head of School at Green Mountain Valley School (GMVS) in Waitsfield, Vermont. Tracy shares her ski and career journey with us from racing at Dartmouth to her first job at Sugar Bowl Academy and finally to GMVS where she is the Head of School.

Tracy learned to ski when she was six at Pico Mountain in Vermont and started ski racing at a young age.  She went on to ski at Dartmouth College and after college took a job teaching, coaching and dorm parenting at Sugar Bowl Academy in California.  

Tracy clearly defines a ski academy - a high school (and in some cases middle school) designed for and to serve the needs of competitive ski racers. Most are independent schools, many have a boarding component. 

Tracy gives some great advice on how to check out what a ski academy is like by attending a ski camp.  While students can enroll as early as 7th grade at GMVS, many students do not start attending full time until 9th grade.  Many academies offer winter term programs (typically 6th, 7th, 8th grade) starting in November through the ski season. 

A ski academy is a good fit for a student that is passionate about skiing - they ski every day, in all weather, and you really need to love it. Students need to be resilient, hard working and have the ability to recognize that competitive skiing is a process. Another key factor is that the desire to ski competitively needs to be driven by the athlete and not their parents. 

We also learn about a typical year at a ski academy - which can consist of international and domestic camp travel, on-site physical conditioning and local training.

In this episode Nicole and Sarah host Beth Howard, ski mom, and VP and Chief Operating Officer of Vail Mountain in Vail, Colorado. Beth shares her career journey from the University of Northern Iowa where she studied Food & Nutrition and Business. When a college internship led her to the Vail Valley, she packed her car and headed west.  Beth fell in love with Vail and immediately knew she wanted to figure out how to live there after college.

Find out how to use Ski Butler to get rentals brought to your ski condo or hotel.

Beth grew up skiing in Minnesota at Afton Alps with her brothers, but did not expect her career to lead to the ski industry. The combination of her love of sports and college studies led her to Vail. Beth started in the Food & Beverage area and had a number of roles at different resorts before becoming the COO of Vail Mountain. 

Beth shares a typical day as the COO of Vail Mountain - which starts with a coffee and her “power hour” where she gets up to speed on everything going on at Vail. You may even see Beth out greeting guests, look for a blue jacket and gray pants - and her name tag. 

Vail is 5,300 acres and has all levels of terrain, family and beginner ski areas - there is really something for everyone.  Beth tells us about how the mountain is laid out and about the various villages at Vail, inspired by European ski villages.  The villages have all sorts of fun things for families - ice skating rinks, great shopping, even a candy store which is always a hit. 

The Vail ski school is a fantastic resource for families learning to ski or just looking for a guide to show them the lesser known areas of the vast mountain.  

The Epic Mix app has lots of of great information for guests - from weather alerts to predictive lift lines, terrain openings, trail maps and GPS tracking. 

This year marks the 60th season for Vail and to celebrate they have tons of fun events planned. There are music events, parades and they are bringing back the ice bars

In this episode Nicole and Sarah host Barbara Cochran, ski mom, Olympic gold medalist and sports psychology consultant. 

Barbara tells us about the incredible history behind her father Mickey’s vision to build a ski hill behind their house in Richmond, Vermont in 1961.  Mickey built a tow rope and put up lights so all his kids and anyone else who wanted to (it was open to the public), could ski train after school and into the night.

Barbara is one of four children, they all grew up to be world-class ski racers and represented the U.S. in the Winter Olympics. Barbara started racing in World Cup races when she was still in high school. She shares her Olympic story of winning the gold medal in slalom at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo, Japan. 

We loved hearing about what was going through Barbara’s mind as she prepared herself to race, and how her father’s words could calm her down and get her thinking positively (even at the Olympics!).  Barbara discovered the powers of positive self talk and having a growth mindset - long before it was a well-known practice. 

Barbara shares the Cochran’s Way, a powerful and positive message for ski racers and parents pursuing this crazy sport. She tells us about the letter she wrote to her son Ryan Cochran-Siegle, before he headed to the Olympics.

Barbara’s words have inspired us to stay positive and keep the big picture in mind - the invaluable life lessons our kids learn from skiing.

In this episode Nicole and Sarah host Halley O’Brien, an avid snowboarder who has made outdoor adventuring her career as an on-camera personality, writer and producer. Halley is a mother of 3 boys (she just recently welcomed twins!), is the founder of The Snow Report and has her own podcast (Beyond the Apres).  

Halley tells us about learning to snowboard at Mountain Creek in New Jersey and falling in love with it immediately - even though her tailbone did not :)  

Halley walks us through her career path from a communications major to pounding the pavement at ski resorts and making her way into the ski industry business.  

Halley started at Mount Snow as their on mountain “Snow Reporter”, and that led her to found The Snow Report. Halley moved out to Colorado and started her own production company - working with Vail Resorts, The Weather Channel, Snow Country and then pitched her own show to Ski Magazine.  

Halley makes fast paced and super funny videos on all sorts of ski and snow related topics - from pond skimming to beer and gear reviews - we found ourselves laughing out loud when we tuned in.  

Halley and her husband are teaching their son to snowboard (starting at 13 months!) at Mountain Creek on a Burton Riglet board, a board designed specifically for the tiniest rippers. 

Halley now has a number of roles back at Mountain Creek and at Big Snow American Dream (indoor ski resort in New Jersey). Mountain Creek has a great ski school with progress based learning features that help guide new skiers as they build their basic ski skills. Mountain Creek has night skiing and is only an hour outside of NYC.

In this episode Nicole and Sarah host Erica Frank, the GM of Ski Butlers in Steamboat, Colorado. Erica gives tons of tips and insights to plan the perfect family trip to Steamboat. 

Erica grew up in Utah, skiing at Brighton, Alta & Snowbird. She moved East for college still managed to find time on snow - she taught skiing at Shawnee Mountain and Camelback Mountain.  She tells us about her first time visiting Steamboat on a family trip and falling in love with the area and all the incredible snow. She knew she would make her way back there and has been living in Steamboat for the past 3 years now. 

Erica explains exactly what families can expect to find at Steamboat and how Ski Butler makes getting to the slopes fun and easy for families. Ski Butler is a premier ski rental delivery company that brings all the ski gear right to you in your condo or hotel. Imagine having a glass of wine in your condo while your kids try on boots - instead of sweating it out in the rental line. Ski Butlers rents skis, poles, snowboards, boots and even helmets and goggles.  

Ski Butlers provides ongoing support throughout your stay, you can try different skis during your stay depending on your needs or even the snow conditions.  Then at the end of your trip, they pick up everything. 

We loved learning about Ski Butlers’ partnership with Steamboat Sports where families can rent soft goods like ski jackets and snow pants. 

Erica even shares some of her favorite apres ski spots around town - like T Bar and Timber & Torch.

In this episode Nicole hosts Mirna Valerio, better known as The Mirnavator, an endurance athlete who fell in love with skiing later in life and never looked back. 

Mirna tells us about starting her blog to make a place for plus size endurance runners that led to a career as a spokesperson for many well known brands including Lululemon, LL Bean and Hydroflask. 

Mirna first took ski lessons over 10 years ago at Mountain Creek when she was a teacher in New Jersey. She loved it from the start, even though some of her early ski experiences ended with spectacular falls.  

Then in 2021 she started taking lessons again at Sugarbush and Bolton Valley.  She shares the ups and downs of learning to ski as an adult and letting go of control.  She enjoys taking lessons at different ski resorts and finds it is a great way to get to know a mountain. 

Mirna shares some of the challenges of finding plus size ski gear for women and where she has found some great plus size options. She hopes that more ski brands will expand to plus sizes in the future. 

Follow Mirna on social media (links below) and you will see that she shares her ski journey in realistic full color, showing both the falls and the successes!

In this episode Nicole and Sarah revisit a favorite episode from season 1 with ski mom Heather Burke, Travel Editor at FamilySkiTrips.com

This time of year a lot of us are thinking about new equipment for the upcoming season, but navigating gear can be confusing. Heather talks to us about how to find the right skis and boots, skis designed for women, demo days - and much more. 

Heather learned to ski at 3, her mom says she was more natural skiing than walking! Heather grew up in the ski biz, her parents ran a ski lodge at Smugglers Notch in Vermont.

Heather and her husband Greg have raised two skiers, and have skied over 225 ski resorts around the world. 

Heather launched FamilySkiTrips.com in 1995 as a resource for families on where to ski, the best ski resorts, and even how to pack and dress for skiing.

In this episode, we share our first interview from last season with Alli Widman, ski mom and Founder & CEO of Avant Ski.  Alli has been an avid skier and traveler her entire life.  Following years of frustration with a lack of comprehensive, reliable ski resources for recreational skiers, Alli launched Avant Ski in 2018.

We talk to Alli about a wide range of ski-related topics that are on our minds as we think of the season ahead - from the economics and perks of multi-mountain ski passes (Epic Pass, Ikon Pass, Indy Pass, Mountain Collective) to what factors to consider when picking a ski resort for your next family vacation.

Alli shares some great tips on navigating Park City - everything from ski school drop off to finding great coffee and fun apres ski spots. Avant Ski resort guides give you this type of insider access so you can experience the mountain like a local.

In this episode Nicole and Sarah visit Hooey Wilks at her studio, Hooey Mountain.  Hooey shows us her the vintage toy skier collection that she photographs on snow at ski resorts around the world. The photographs truly pulled us in, they are fun and engaging, and we found ourselves leaning in to get a closer look at all the details. 

The vintage toy skiers in Hooey’s photographs evoke a nostalgic feeling, but are bright and modern at the same time.  Hooey’s photos brought us back to some of our favorite ski trips. 

Hooey’s amazing photos would be a great gift for anyone who loves to ski. We could see these hanging in a ski house or any house with people who just love to ski and play in the snow. 

Hooey also shares stories about her own ski journey growing up skiing in NY state and Vermont with her friends and family.
