The Next Turn - skiing, ski racing and sport

World Cup Moms Vol. 2 - Macuga and Seger


Listen Later

Two parents of elite athletes join The Next Turn for Volume 2 of “World Cup Moms”. Patricia Seger, mom of Canadian speed skiers Brodie and Riley, and Amy Macuga, mom of ski jumper Samantha, mogul skier Alli, and alpine speed skiers Lauren and Daniel, have supported their children's dreams despite not coming from ski racing backgrounds themselves. Each has successfully navigated the complicated, exciting, and often exhausting world high-level training and competition. Patricia and Amy talk about raising elite athlete siblings, noting how they support and compete with each other, and about managing the ups and downs of high-performance sports. They share insights into managing schedules, making time for themselves, and ensuring they preserve a genuine love for skiing and sport within their children. It's an honest, funny, and heartfelt conversation about what it takes behind the scenes to support athletes while still managing everyday life. As always, hosts Martin, Cara, and Jeff share their “SWIX Thoughts of the Day”.
