TPM Episode 449: Kimmy Fasani, Pro Snowboarder


Listen Later

Kimmy Fasani is a trailblazing snowboarder who, not by choice, made a huge difference in women’s sports.  Kimmy went from “Rider of the Year” to becoming a mom and when we last podcasted, the theme was, “will my sponsors stick by me?”. They did, but really, keeping sponsors is the last of Kimmy’s life worries.  Between losing her parents to cancer, to having cancer, to so many other things, Kimmy’s life is not close to as easy as it looks and this podcast and her movie “Butterfly in a Blizzard” give a real look into what it’s like to have the best of times and the worst of times. It’s a heavy podcast and Sherry McConkey asks the Inappropriate Questions.
