S6E17: Athlete Stories - Road to Recovery (and Resilience) After Traumatic Injury & Head Trauma w Freeskier Jamie MoCrazy

SEASON 6, EPISODE #17

Marc interviews Jamie MoCrazy, a former pro freeskier, motivational speaker, ski guide, and talk show host. She was the first female in the world to do a double flip in a Slopestyle run during the X Games in 2013.

Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, her life came tumbling down. She crashed on a trick, paralyzing half of your body and knocking you into a coma.

Since recovering from her accident, Jamie has spoken in front of audiences ranging from 20 to 1,000 and has presented at nonprofit galas, business conventions, and medical schools all over the globe.
