When Olympic Alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin crossed the finish line in Cortina, a full second and a half ahead of the field, it looked like dominance. But behind that third Olympic gold medal and a career as the most decorated Alpine skier in history was a story most people never saw: one of grief, doubt and the quiet, grueling work of putting yourself back together. In this episode, host Yasmin Vossoughian sits down with Mikaela Shiffrin for a conversation about mental health, loss and what it really means to carry the weight of the world's expectations down a mountain at 80 miles an hour.
