In this episode, the Ski Moms are joined by Julie Gacnik, co-founder of Pure Mountain Fun and mom of four who turned her family's ski day frustrations into a thriving business. A former university administrator who learned to ski in Iowa, Julie's journey began when her 10-year-old daughter invented a 3.5-ounce ski carrier for a school project. After strangers at Beaver Creek asked where they could buy it, the family launched Pure Mountain Fun in March 2020, just one week before the ski industry shut down.Julie shares how the COVID pandemic actually helped them build their business, giving time to figure out domestic manufacturing and navigate virtual trade shows. All four children remain actively involved, from choosing product colors to inventing new items like the ski mat and ring toss made from remnant fabric. The family's commitment became clear when they turned down an offer to sell the business after the kids insisted they wanted to maintain control over their story.The episode concludes with their après ski traditions: chips and salsa, root beer for the youngest, and blowing bubbles that freeze in the mountain air while watching "Foxana" the fox visit their condo patio.Quotes:"The ski pack is a 3 1/2 ounce ski carrier designed to fit like a backpack, but also intuitive enough that a little child such as a three year old understands how to carry it.""If the kids have fun, if the memories are left on the mountain and not in the parking lot from a negative experience, they had a positive experience on the mountain."Links:Pure Mountain Fun: PureMountainFun.com Special OParticipating destinations include:

I'm currently visiting family in Connecticut where I grew up. I was here until I went off to college and then I moved back for about a year before I moved west to go to graduate school. Connecticut has been a witness to every stage of my food recovery. From the beginnings of starting to choose food to self soothe, my diet culture years, stuck in the binge-restrict cyle, a short stint into orthorexia and over exercising, and now in full recovery. My body remembers where and what I used to binge on, but I have no nervous system activation that tells me to do these food behaviors again. This is what can occur in familiar binge or restrict environments.Your body time travels to the past and recalls what you used to do with food in specific environments and, like a moth to a flame, you're drawn to the same food behavior. In this week's episode, I chat about: What happens in your body when you're in your familiar binge eating environments Why you find yourself binge eating at the same time of the day The somatic practice you can start to update your body's memoryYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-your-body-remembers-the-environments-where-youve-bingedThe Somatic Eating® Intensive is on sale for 30% off until Tuesday, December 2nd.

In this episode of The Music in Me, I dive deep into the incredible world of Prince — an artist who didn't just make music, but created an entire universe of sound, style, and emotion. From his early days as a young prodigy in Minneapolis to his rise as one of the most iconic performers of all time, Prince was never afraid to be different. He taught us that standing out is something to celebrate, not hide. I'll talk about how songs like “Let's Go Crazy,” “When Doves Cry,” and “Purple Rain” shaped not just the music world, but pop culture itself. I'll share what these songs mean to me personally — how their energy, passion, and message of individuality have always inspired me to be myself, no matter what. Prince wasn't just a singer or a musician; he was a movement. He broke barriers, redefined genres, and left behind a legacy that still shines as bright as ever. So, join me as I celebrate the life, the music, and the magic of a true original — the one and only Prince.ALBUMS MENTIONED...For YouDirty MindControversy1999Purple RainSign o' the TimesDiamonds and PearlsMusicologySONGS MENTIONED..."Purple Rain""When Doves Cry""Let's Go Crazy"What did you think of this episode?

In this episode Heather Henry, VP of Housing and Childcare at Aspen One, joins the Ski Moms to discuss the critical infrastructure that keeps ski communities livable for families: affordable housing and accessible childcare. Aspen One operates Aspen Snowmass (four mountains), Aspen Hospitality, and Aspen Ventures, employing over 4,000 people at peak season. The company provides 1,300 beds, housing 75% of seasonal workers but only 15% of year-round employees. They take a "housing continuum" approach and subsidize housing to keep costs at 20-30% of employee income.Childcare presents major challenges, with families joining waitlists before pregnancy and waiting three years for spots. Heather focuses on strategic partnerships rather than building massive facilities. The company culture embraces work-life balance, with leadership encouraging employees to "sample the product" through mountain activities during work hours.We loved hearing about Heather's favorite apres ski spots including the Sun Deck at Aspen Mountain, Ranger Station at Snowmass and pretty much any sunny mountain location for people watching and hot chocolate (sometimes with Irish whiskey).Keep up with the latest from Aspen One at https://aspen.comNotable Quote: "Stable housing means a healthy community, which means a sustainable company."Junior Lease appointments at Ski Haus are open!

I've been reflecting recently on how much I talk here about the reasons food behaviors like binge eating have nothing to do with the food, but the state you're eating the food in. As I've explored here many times, there are so many somatic, trauma, and nervous system layers to your food patterns. But part of food recovery has to include explorations around food itself.

From her early days learning to ski at age 2 in Truckee to becoming a professional snowboarder in Mammoth Lakes, Kimmy opens up about the realities of maintaining a career in action sports while raising two young boys. She discusses her powerful documentary "Butterfly in a Blizzard," which chronicles eight years of her life including pregnancy, early motherhood, loss, and her breast cancer journey.

She also shares insights about meditation practices learned from her mother, the Benchetler Fasani Foundation she started with her husband, and her cookbook "The Mountain Baker."

In this episode the Ski Moms are joined by Emmy-winning broadcaster and writer Victoria Gaither who shares her powerful skiing journey from a tearful first experience at Liberty Mountain through D.C. public schools to becoming a passionate advocate for diversity in winter sports. Starting her career with legendary Ted Koppel, Victoria now writes for Mountain Times and Vermont Ski and Snowboard magazine, focusing on positive stories that move the needle forward. Her viral article "The Myth of the Black Skier" challenges narratives about diversity in skiing, emphasizing that Black skiers have always been part of the community. Victoria discusses the historic National Brotherhood of Skiers organization, founded in the 1960s to combat resort discrimination, and shares how skiing builds confidence both on and off the mountain. She advocates that "if you ski, you are a skier" regardless of ability level, promoting an inclusive vision where skiing is about personal joy, views, and community rather than speed or technical prowess.Keep up with the latest from Victoria:Website: https://victoriagaither.com/Instagram: https://instagram.com/were2nextvic"I never gave myself the title as a skier. I only did that probably about two years ago. So I went through my whole life always saying I'm not a skier.""I really think that we in the media and in general, we need to change the narrative when it comes to black people skiing... let's acknowledge the already thriving ski community of black people out there doing this, and let's just start there, as opposed to making it seem like that this is something new that we haven't been doing."Junior Lease appointments at Ski Haus are open!

Ever wonder why you still know every word to a jingle from the '80s? In this episode of The Music in Me, I take you on a fun, nostalgic trip through the catchiest and most unforgettable commercial jingles of all time.

Plus I share a hilarious personal story about creating her own jingle in college (spoiler: her family still remembers it).

Happy Satiated Saturday! I find it fascinating to explore the layers and layers of connections between trauma and food behaviors. Trauma alters the way you experience bodily sensations. A racing heart can feel like panic rather than excitement. An empty stomach might trigger fear rather than curiosity about food. Over time, the body learns to suppress or disconnect from these cues in an attempt to stay safe. Body detachment provided you with short term safety, but affected your ability to know how you feel, to understand if you're hungry or full, or to know what you need and when. This lowered your interoception or ability to sense and interpret your internal signals in your body. In this week's episode, I chat about: Interoceptive confusionHow low interoception effects food behaviorsTrauma and interoception connectionInteroception practices you can start todayYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-trauma-alters-your-sense-of-self-and-eating-habitsI also provide some updates at the end of this episode so be sure to listen to the end!

Happy Satiated Saturday! After years and years of navigating food cravings, it was the field of somatics that started to shift my perception of them. I used to think of cravings as something I had to do battle with and couldn't listen to until I realized that I was defining listening to cravings as abiding by them and that listening to my craving meant I needed to eat the food some part of me was telling me to eat. I now experience and teach that cravings are bodily messengers. Cravings are meant to be listened to by bringing in curiosity about what the body might be trying to relay through having you want to eat a particular food. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Jenn Trepeck, Certified Health & Nutrition Coach, about: Decoding cravingsThe nutritional and blood sugar aspects to cravingsThe role of guilt in cravingsPractical strategies to navigating your food cravingsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: www.stephaniemara.com/blog/understanding-the-science-behind-food-cravingsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Jenn:Website: https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/salad-with-a-side-of-fries-nutrition-wellness-weight-loss/id1476096152Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenntrepeck/?hl=enSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! Something I've noticed in any body image healing exploration is how private body image concerns are. About 84% of women struggle with body image, yet something so prevalent is often kept hidden. I wonder what could change if how hard it is to live in a body could be openly discussed and supported, where conversations could look like: Person 1: How are you today?Person 2: I'm actually having a really hard time with my body image today.Person 1: Thanks for letting me know. I struggle a lot too. Is there anything you need in this experience today? I want to normalize body image struggles because I sense this might be the first step toward changing the conversations around living in a body. Rather than beginning with body acceptance or body love, sometimes you first just need to be with that, sometimes, because of a million different reasons, it is hard to be in your body and to like the way your body looks. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Anna Sweeney, Nutrition Therapist and Registered Dietitian, about: The complexities of body image healingThe impact of societal messaging and social mediaChallenging body image normsThe GLP-1 craze we're in right nowMedical stigmaFinding safety in the bodyYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/navigating-the-complexities-of-body-imageI hope you can join me Wednesday, August 27th at 5:00 pm ET for my upcoming Befriending Your Body Image Challenges with Somatic Eating® Practices Workshop.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Fitness culture has made body image recovery even more confusing. I've seen people year after year question if it is alright to want to lose weight, or lift weights, or increase muscle. What I like to return to is the intention behind these desires and how they feel in your body. Any intention approached from a place of self hate, of disrespecting the body, or pushing the body beyond what it can handle, compromising its health, is not a goal that will lead to nervous system regulation and bodily safety. First and foremost though, I believe in body autonomy and for you to choose for yourself what adventures you'd like to take with your body. What we typically need to explore is how to embark on those adventures that respects your body, takes care of your body, and supports your body along the way. In this week's episode, I chat with Kitty Blomfield, cofounder of NuStrength and Saturee, about: Balancing body goals and self worthBody acceptance and desires for fat lossEmpowerment through strength trainingNavigating body image across different life stagesApproaching nutrition with curiosity Finding your Goldilocks spot with foodYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/building-muscle-self-worth-and-body-confidenceThere is one more month until the Befriending Your Body Image Challenges Workshop happening on Wednesday, August 27th at 5:00 pm ET. At the end of this live 2 hour workshop, you will have a somatic plan to navigate the most difficult body image moments such as seeing yourself in pictures, interacting with the scale, and struggles with clothes.

Happy Satiated Saturday! I'm excited to tell you that today marks a month long focus on the podcast on body image healing. Every summer, I have noticed an uptick in body image conversation on social media and in my sessions and programs. So last summer, I started a little podcast tradition of offering a whole series focused and dedicated to supporting you in navigating body image during the months where more of your body is being seen, more vacation pictures are being taken, and you're potentially feeling some discomfort being in your body. To kick off this month, I wanted to share my somatic perspective on body image recovery.In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about: What body image healing isThe difference between body schema and body image The body image and nervous system connection What body image healing actually looks likeYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/nervous-system-and-body-image-strugglesAt the end of this month-long body image focus, I will be teaching my Befriending Your Body Image Challenges with Somatic Eating® Practices Workshop, which I only teach once a year. This will be a live two hour workshop, where you will learn the somatic wisdom behind your body image concerns, discover a nervous system and trauma lens to body image challenges, and somatic practices to navigate difficult body image days, the scale, comparing yourself to past body expressions, and seeing pictures of yourself.If you can't attend live, the call will be recorded to watch the replay later.
