Induljunk el egy könnyebb pályán!"En: "Don't worry, Évi! Let's start with an easier slope!"Hu: János nem volt biztos benne, de bízott Tamarában.En: János wasn't sure, but he trusted Tamara.Hu: Éva tétovázott, de tudta, hogy a testvérei csak jót akarnak neki.En: Éva hesitated but knew her siblings only wanted the best for her.Hu: Lassú léptekkel, de elindultak a kisebb lejtő felé.En: With slow steps, they headed towards the smaller slope.Hu: Tamara előrement, Éva pedig követte, kissé bizonytalanul, de eltökélten.En: Tamara went ahead, and Éva followed, a bit uncertain but determined.Hu: Ahogy Éva elérte a lejtő kezdetét, a szíve hevesebben vert.En: As Éva reached the start of the slope, her heart beat faster.Hu: "Én nem tudom megcsinálni" suttogta maga elé, de Tamara biztatóan mosolygott rá.En: "I can't do this," she whispered to herself, but Tamara smiled at her encouragingly.Hu: "Csak nézz előre, Éva! Ez könnyebb, mint gondolnád!"En: "Just look ahead, Éva! It's easier than you think!"Hu: Éva mély levegőt vett, és elrugaszkodott.En: Éva took a deep breath and pushed off.Hu: Az első pillanatban lezuhanni készült, de hamar ráérzett a ritmusra és a hó monoton suhogására a léc alatt.En: At first, she felt like she was about to fall, but she quickly got into the rhythm and felt the monotonous swish of the snow under her skis.Hu: Tamara mellette siklott, vigyázva, hogy ne legyen túl gyors.En: Tamara glided beside her, careful not to go too fast.Hu: Ahogy elértek a lejtő aljára, Éva szinte csodálkozva nézett körbe.En: As they reached the bottom of the slope, Éva looked around almost in amazement.Hu: "Ez... ez nagyszerű volt. Sikerült!"En: "That... that was great. I did it!"Hu: János és Tamara tapssal üdvözölték őt.En: János and Tamara greeted her with applause.Hu: "Büszkék vagyunk rád!" mondták egyszerre.En: "We're proud of you!" they said in unison.Hu: Éva arcán mosoly terült szét.En: A smile spread across Éva's face.Hu: Úgy érezte, hogy valami új kezdődött el.En: She felt that something new had begun.Hu: Most, hogy a könnyebb lejtőt legyőzte, Éva már alig várta a következő napot a hegyen.En: Now that she had conquered the easier slope, Éva couldn't wait for the next day on the mountain.Hu: A testvérei társaságában, a fák alatt búcsúzó hóval, Éva megtalálta az önbizalmát.En: In the company of her siblings, amidst the trees and the parting snow, Éva found her confidence.Hu: A hétvége végére Éva már egyre bátrabban próbált ki új dolgokat, és tudta, hogy a nehéz idők után mindig jön egy szép tavasz.En: By the end of the weekend, Éva was trying new things more and more bravely, and she knew that after difficult times, a beautiful spring always comes.

The same tool that helps you find your best customer can also be used to find someone's fears, anger, or bias. That's where smart marketing turns into something a lot messier. In this conversation, from our archive, we unpack market segmentation, the good it can do, and the risks that come with it.  Recorded in 2017 many of the same concerns are still valid today.  I chatted with Lydia Thurston and Sam Von Tobel about demographics, psychographics, and why every business owner should understand both sides of the story. Why this matters: Targeting helps you spend less and connect faster. But when powerful tools land in careless hands, the results can get ugly. Takeaways: Good targeting saves time and money Demographics help you narrow by age, gender, income, or location. Psychographics help you understand interests, values, and habits. Together, they help you reach moms looking for cooking classes or families searching for healthy meal ideas, instead of shouting into the void. The same data can be misused We talked about the ProPublica case, where ad targeting tools were tested to reach groups based on hateful beliefs. That's a wake-up call. These systems don't just sell soup and cooking classes. They can also spread division if no one is paying attention. Just because you can target someone doesn't mean you should Marketing always needs a moral compass. It's easy to get excited about precision and forget responsibility. Smart business owners need both. Platforms have work to do Facebook responded by blocking some harmful terms, but the bigger challenge remains. People can still be reached through indirect signals like music tastes, interests, or online behavior. This problem doesn't disappear with one patch. If you use targeting tools, ask yourself, will this help my customer, and would I be comfortable explaining how I used it?

In this episode of Golf Party Live, we tackle something every golfer—especially beginners—must learn: how to handle adverse lies with confidence. Let's be real—golf is not played off perfect grass. Your ball will end up in divots, hardpan, desert lies, and awkward slopes that can make you want to cry. But here's the truth: golf is recovery, golf is resilience, and golf is problem-solving. Once you understand how to approach these situations, your game becomes calmer, more confident, and honestly… a lot more fun. In this episode, we break down: What an adverse lie actually is How to handle: Divots in the fairway Hardpan lies Desert lies (buried, sitting down, or tricky footing) Extreme and awkward lies The four types of slope lies and how to play each: Uphill lie Downhill lie Ball above your feet Ball below your feet Why it's okay to bump the ball when the rules allow—and what "playing it down" really means Smart strategies to keep the ball in play and your confidence intact This episode is all about learning how to adapt, make good decisions, and stop letting tough lies derail your round. When you know what to do, those scary situations turn into opportunities to build skill and trust in your game. Thank you for tuning in to Golf Party Live. ✨ Share this episode with a golf girlfriend ✨ Tag us and tell us which lie you conquered this week ✨ And as always—have fun and go low ⛳️

Athena emphasizes the significance of community support and the lessons learned from adversity, encouraging others to embrace their challenges as opportunities for growth.Main Points:Chronic illness can lead to a profound identity crisis.Resilience is about recognizing and honoring your limits.Listening to your body is a form of strength, not weakness.Ambition can be redefined through intentional living.Community support is crucial during challenging times.Mourning lost health is an important part of healing.Small moments of resilience accumulate to create a larger story.Time becomes finite when facing chronic illness.The greatest lessons often come from difficult experiences.Finding joy in work can be a powerful motivator.Connect With Athena Brownson:athena.brownson@compass.comathenabrownsonrealtor.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/athenabrownsonrealtor/https://www.instagram.com/athenabrownsonrealtor/https://www.youtube.com/@athenabrownson2044

As anyone in ocean acoustics will tell you, sound is essential for much of the work done underwater, whether that be navigation, sensing objects, or passively monitoring wildlife. While much research has been done about sandy ocean floors, scientists still have a lot to learn about muddier regions with mixtures of different types of sediment. In this episode, we talk with two editors and a researcher involved with the recent JASA Special Issue on Assessing Sediment Heterogeneity on Continental Shelves and Slopes: Preston Wilson (University of Texas at Austin), David Knobles (Platt Institute of Nuclear Physics and Cosmology), and Kyle Becker (University of Washington).Read all the articles from the special issue here!Read more from The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America (JASA).Learn more about Acoustical Society of America Publications.Music Credit: Min 2019 by minwbu from Pixabay. 

Fatal Mistake opens in a dying, collapsed world — a ruined island city divided between the fortified enclave of Eastward, where the privileged few cling to order, and the brutal wastelands outside its walls: the Ruins and the Slopes, where survival is the only law. Two storylines run in parallel. In the present, we meet Harry Hell — a former elite assassin who has spent five years hunting the most dangerous woman alive: a killer known only as Nectar. The story begins with her turning the tables on two of his men sent to find her, slitting one's throat and sending the other back with a message. Harry is cold, purposeful, and consumed by a single obsession — avenging the death of Raul, his partner and the only person he ever loved, who Nectar killed. Running alongside that is the origin story of both characters. Harry was born Harold Hellerman, the privileged twin son of a ruthless banker, handed over to Control — the island's iron governing body — as a teenager to be trained as an Eliminator, their word for assassin. His twin Elliot went with him. They were the best of the best, shaped from childhood into something barely human. Harry is cold and questioning; Elliot is eager and thrilled by the violence in a way that quietly disturbs his brother. Nectar's story is the mirror image. Born on a factory floor to a mother who disappeared and left her to fend for herself in the Ruins, she was found by an old seer called Witch Woman, who recognized something extraordinary and terrifying in the child and trained her into a legend. By the time she was a teenager she was already feared. By adulthood she was untouchable. By the end of chapter ten, the two worlds are on a collision course neither can escape — and we understand that what's coming isn't just a fight to the death. It's the only ending two people like this were ever going to have.

Imagine a multi-million dollar career ending in a single, icy second. In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the strict "No-Ski" clauses that govern the lives of elite footballers. We break down the brutal physics of how skiing and snowboarding target the ACL—the ultimate "Achilles heel" of the modern pitch—and why top-tier clubs view a simple winter holiday as a catastrophic financial risk. From the mechanics of knee ligament stress to the billion-dollar stakes of player longevity, we explore the small sacrifices athletes make to ensure they stay on the grass and off the operating table. ACL injuries, professional football, sports medicine, football contracts, athlete safety.

In addition to my weekly 3-chapter installments of 'Night Flight to Murder Town: A Marshall James Thriller,' I'm offering up three extra-long listens of 'Fatal Mistake: A Harry Hell Novella.' It's the first of three novellas planned that take us on the wild journey that is Harry Hell's life. Queer, dystopian, fearsome. Fatal Mistake opens in a dying, collapsed world — a ruined island city divided between the fortified enclave of Eastward, where the privileged few cling to order, and the brutal wastelands outside its walls: the Ruins and the Slopes, where survival is the only law. Two storylines run in parallel. In the present, we meet Harry Hell — a former elite assassin who has spent five years hunting the most dangerous woman alive: a killer known only as Nectar.

Fluent Fiction - Swedish: Siblings Unite on Snowy Slopes: A Skiing Adventure Tale Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sv/episode/2026-03-13-22-34-01-sv Story Transcript:Sv: På toppen av Åres snötäckta berg låg en liten stuga, omgiven av majestätiska granar och gnistrande snö.En: At the top of Åre's snow-covered mountains was a small cabin, surrounded by majestic fir trees and sparkling snow.Sv: Elden sprakade varmt i kaminen, och kontrasterade den kalla, friska bergsluften utanför.En: The fire crackled warmly in the stove, contrasting with the cold, fresh mountain air outside.Sv: Här bodde Sofia och Lars, syskon som var på skidsemester med familjen.En: Here lived Sofia and Lars, siblings who were on a skiing holiday with their family.Sv: Sofia älskade äventyr.En: Sofia loved adventure.Sv: Skidor var hennes favorit, och hon tävlade alltid med sig själv för att bli bättre.En: Skiing was her favorite, and she always competed with herself to get better.Sv: Lars däremot kände sig tryggare inomhus, med en bok i handen, sittandes nära brasan.En: Lars, on the other hand, felt safer indoors, with a book in his hand, sitting close to the fire.Sv: Sofia såg längtande ut genom fönstret mot de böljande skidbackarna.En: Sofia looked longingly out the window at the rolling ski slopes.Sv: Hon vände sig mot Lars, som satt djupt försjunken i sin bok.En: She turned to Lars, who was deeply engrossed in his book.Sv: "Kom igen, Lars!En: "Come on, Lars!Sv: Låt oss ta en tur i backen.En: Let's take a run on the slope.Sv: Det är jätteroligt!"En: It's so much fun!"Sv: utbrast hon entusiastiskt.En: she exclaimed enthusiastically.Sv: Lars tittade upp med tvekan.En: Lars looked up with hesitation.Sv: "Jag vet inte, Sofia.En: "I don't know, Sofia.Sv: Jag är rädd att jag ska ramla och göra mig illa," svarade han.En: I'm afraid I'll fall and hurt myself," he replied.Sv: Sofia funderade en stund.En: Sofia thought for a moment.Sv: Hon ville verkligen att Lars skulle få uppleva hur underbart det kunde vara att susa nerför en backe.En: She really wanted Lars to experience how wonderful it could be to glide down a slope.Sv: Men hon förstod också hans oro.En: But she also understood his concern.Sv: Hon bestämde sig.En: She made a decision.Sv: "Vi kan börja på en lätt backe.En: "We can start on an easy slope.Sv: Jag lovar att det kommer vara kul och tryggt.En: I promise it will be fun and safe.Sv: Om du inte gillar det, kan vi alltid gå tillbaka," föreslog Sofia med ett lugnande leende.En: If you don't like it, we can always go back," suggested Sofia with a reassuring smile.Sv: Lars tvekade fortfarande, men han litade på sin storasyster.En: Lars still hesitated, but he trusted his big sister.Sv: Tillsammans begav de sig ut, mot den mjuka lilla backen nära stugan.En: Together they ventured out towards the gentle little hill near the cabin.Sv: Snön knarrade under deras pjäxor när de sakta tog sig till starten av backen.En: The snow crunched under their boots as they slowly made their way to the start of the slope.Sv: "Se här, Lars," sa Sofia och visade honom ett enkelt sätt att stå på skidorna.En: "Look here, Lars," said Sofia, showing him a simple way to stand on the skis.Sv: Hon började lekfullt glida ned i långsamt tempo, sicksackande mellan små snöhögar.En: She began to playfully glide down at a slow pace, zigzagging between small snow piles.Sv: Lars såg på henne och tog ett djupt andetag.En: Lars watched her and took a deep breath.Sv: Hans hjärtslag lugnade sig när han såg hennes trygga rörelser.En: His heartbeat calmed as he saw her confident movements.Sv: Sakta men säkert följde han hennes exempel.En: Slowly but surely, he followed her example.Sv: I början lite ostadig, men snart med ökande självförtroende.En: At first a bit unsteady, but soon with growing confidence.Sv: Tillsammans gled de nerför backen.En: Together they slid down the slope.Sv: Sofia fylldes av glädje när hon såg Lars le.En: Sofia was filled with joy when she saw Lars smiling.Sv: "Du kan göra det, Lars!En: "You can do it, Lars!Sv: Du klarar det jättebra!"En: You're doing great!"Sv: ropade hon uppmuntrande.En: she shouted encouragingly.Sv: När de nådde botten, tittade Lars på Sofia och log bredt.En: When they reached the bottom, Lars looked at Sofia and beamed.Sv: "Det var ju riktigt kul," medgav han och kände stolthet över att han vågat prova.En: "That was really fun," he admitted, feeling proud that he had dared to try.Sv: De återvände till stugan, och medan kvällen sänkte sig över de snöklädda bergen, kände Sofia att hon förstått Lars bättre.En: They returned to the cabin, and as evening descended over the snow-covered mountains, Sofia felt that she understood Lars better.Sv: Samtidigt kände Lars sig modigare, redo att utforska mer på nästa skidtur.En: At the same time, Lars felt braver, ready to explore more on the next ski trip.Sv: De var båda glada över att ha delat denna upplevelse.En: They were both happy to have shared this experience.Sv: Syskonparet satt i den varma stugan, fortfarande fnittrande av dagens äventyr, med bergens storslagna silhuett utanför fönstret.En: The siblings sat in the warm cabin, still giggling from the day's adventure, with the grand silhouette of the mountains outside the window.Sv: Tillsammans hade de upplevt något speciellt och funnit en ny gemenskap i skidbackarna i Åre.En: Together they had experienced something special and found a new bond on the slopes in Åre.

In this deep and raw episode of The Women On Top, Valerie Lynn sits down with world-class freeride skier Molly Armanino for a powerful conversation about courage, intuition, and finding meaning in the mountains.Molly shares what it truly means to pursue a life on the edge—navigating fear, adrenaline, and the deep respect required when moving through wild landscapes.

In addition to my weekly 3-chapter installments of 'Night Flight to Murder Town: A Marshall James Thriller,' I'm offering up three extra-long listens of 'Fatal Mistake: A Harry Hell Novella.' It's the first of three novellas planned that take us on the wild journey that is Harry Hell's life. Queer, dystopian, fearsome. Fatal Mistake opens in a dying, collapsed world — a ruined island city divided between the fortified enclave of Eastward, where the privileged few cling to order, and the brutal wastelands outside its walls: the Ruins and the Slopes, where survival is the only law. Two storylines run in parallel. In the present, we meet Harry Hell — a former elite assassin who has spent five years hunting the most dangerous woman alive: a killer known only as Nectar. The story begins with her turning the tables on two of his men sent to find her, slitting one's throat and sending the other back with a message. Harry is cold, purposeful, and consumed by a single obsession — avenging the death of Raul, his partner and the only person he ever loved, who Nectar killed. By the end of chapter ten, the two worlds are on a collision course neither can escape — and we understand that what's coming isn't just a fight to the death. It's the only ending two people like this were ever going to have.

Elope on the Slopes is here and Stephanie and Keri are getting married at Solitude Resort! Plus, Chase from SLC Foodie talks about Hires. And Chantel has the details on the Hannah Montana concert and the new movie, Hoppers.

Facing Fears, Letting Go,  and Breathing   What if the thing you're most afraid of… is the exact mountain you were meant to ski? Welcome back to Be a Warrior. I'm Angie Heuser — above knee amputee, equine therapy lover, skier, and someone who refuses to live life from the sidelines. And if you've been following me the past several weeks, you know we've been diving deep into the energy of the Year of the Fire Horse — a year of movement, momentum, fearless expansion, courage, and decisive action. But before the fire horse came the snake. And I can't stop thinking about that metaphor. The Year of the Snake ended February 16th — a year of shedding. And if you've ever seen a snakeskin left behind, you know it's both fascinating and a little unsettling. Snakes don't just slip out of their skin like changing clothes. They rub up against rough surfaces. They press into discomfort. Sometimes it takes extra effort around the face or certain tight spots to fully shed what no longer fits. It's not gentle. And neither is growth. When I think about amputee life — about losing a limb, whether by trauma, illness, or in my case, elective amputation after years of surgeries — there is so much shedding. Shedding fear of the unknown. Shedding anger. Shedding grief. Shedding the identity we once had. And it doesn't happen smoothly. It happens against the rough edges of life. But once the shedding is done? The new skin is ready to grow. And that's where the Fire Horse comes in. This year only happens every sixty years — the Horse combined with the element of Fire. It's bold. It's fast. It rewards courage. It exposes comfort. It does not tolerate stagnation. And if you've built your life around playing small, it's going to make you very uncomfortable. Which brings me to the ski slopes. If you follow me online, you saw we were just in Park City. I've been skiing since I was seventeen — long before amputation. But I'll tell you something honestly: there isn't a single day I clip into my ski that I don't feel fear. Even now. Especially now. Three months after my amputation in 2018, I got back on the slopes. I had already missed five years of skiing due to surgeries. I had told my husband if I didn't ski that April, I might never do it again. So I did it scared. I did it sick to my stomach. I did it unsure. And here's what skiing has taught me — lessons that mirror life perfectly. First: the person in front of you has the right of way. On the mountain, it's your responsibility to avoid the skier ahead of you. What's behind you? That's their responsibility. Isn't that life? If I constantly look behind me — at my past, my trauma, my failures — I lose balance. Literally. With one leg, if I look back, I fall. And metaphorically? Same thing. If I live looking backward, I miss the beauty and the hazards in front of me. That doesn't mean I ignore the past. I learn from it. I listen. I stay aware. But I don't let it dictate my line down the mountain. Second: you will face forks in the slope. Left might be safe. Right might be steep. Green or black diamond. Easy or challenging. Comfort or growth. The Fire Horse energy says choose courage. Choose the line that stretches you. And I had that moment on this trip — two blue runs splitting off, one steeper than the other. I heard myself say, “Just go.” So I did. I picked up speed. I carved hard. I pushed myself. And eventually, my leg gave out and I ended up on my butt. Not a dramatic crash — more of a tired surrender.   Take five and reassess your path every now and then   But here's the thing: I was proud of that fall. Because if I'm not falling occasionally, I'm not pushing hard enough. Growth requires risk. Risk requires vulnerability. And vulnerability sometimes ends with snow in your face. Warriors aren't built in comfort. They're built in the steep sections. Third: breathe. One of the biggest lessons my ski instructors taught me after amputation was breathing rhythm. As I carve down the mountain, I exhale into the turn and inhale as I rise. The mountain becomes a rhythm — breathe in, breathe out. When I hold my breath, I tense up. When I tense up, I rely too much on my upper body. When I breathe, I find flow. How often in life do we grit our teeth and forget to breathe? When we breathe through discomfort, we release tension. We think clearly. We stay grounded. Whether you're walking in a prosthetic, stepping into a hard conversation, or heading into an interview — breathe.     Finally: visualize the run. I watched Olympic skiers at the top of the mountain, eyes closed, moving their bodies as they mentally rehearsed every turn. They had already succeeded in their minds before pushing off. That's not luck. That's preparation. If you only visualize falling, you'll hesitate. If you only picture failure, you'll create it. But if you visualize walking confidently in your prosthesis… if you visualize that difficult conversation going well… if you see yourself succeeding — you are building neural pathways toward that outcome. Will you still fall sometimes? Yes. But falling isn't failure. It's feedback. The Fire Horse doesn't reward perfection. It rewards courage. It rewards action. It rewards getting uncomfortable. I came home from those mountains thinking about all of you. About the warriors who are afraid to let that bold part of themselves out because it might mean discomfort. It might mean risk. It might mean exposing the places you've been playing small. But that's where grit is forged. That's where character is polished. That's where life gets amplified.     So here's my call to action: Do the thing that scares you this week. Maybe in baby steps. Maybe messy. Maybe imperfect. But do it. If you fall, smile. Ask yourself what you just learned. Visualize the next attempt. Breathe. Adjust your line. And go again. Stop waiting for the perfect mood, the perfect date, the perfect version of yourself. The mountain is here. YOUR mountain! Embrace it, charge forward! The Fire Horse energy is here. And you, warrior, are more capable than you think. Have a be-YOU-tiful week ahead and as always, Be healthy. Be happy. Be YOU!!!   Much love, What’s your “mountain”?

Canadian Men's Alpine Skiing can be divided into two eras: Before The Crazy Canucks and After The Crazy Canucks. In the 1970s and early-1980s, they dominated on the slopes with their fast and almost reckless style of skiing. They were nearly always on the podium and became Canadian legends.

Top 3 Couple for Elope on the Slopes

What happens when a six-month holiday turns into a 14-year life chapter? You pack a bag for a gap year in the snow and accidentally stumble into a whole new world - a career, a husband, a mortgage, and three children. On paper, it’s the fairytale expat dream. But eventually, the adventure stops feeling like freedom and starts feeling like distance. Georgia Louise was living that dream as a ski patroller in Canada. However, when the global pandemic hit, her perception of being "a flight away" changed to feeling "a world away". That was the moment of the pivot: The realisation that to move forward, she had to go back to where she started - but as a completely different person. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson talks to Georgia about the decision to pack up over a decade of life into seven suitcases to chase a dream she’d been ignoring for years: To become a nurse. Georgia opens up about the "messy middle" of relocating a family of five to regional New South Wales with no credit rating, no local employment history and nothing but a heartfelt letter to convince a landlord to take a chance on them. We unpack the reality of dismantling a comfortable life to start from scratch, the humility of sitting in a university lecture hall with 18-year-olds as a mature-age student and how Georgia uses her thriving social media platform to fund her studies. Join us for a conversation about the logistics of moving a family across the globe when the pull of home becomes too loud to ignore. Get ready to be inspired by a woman who is proving that it is never too late to go back to school. THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay.

In 2003, skiing history was made when Croatian siblings Janica and Ivica Kostelić became the first sister-brother duo to win World Cup Alpine slalom races on the same day. Despite coming from a country with limited skiing facilities, the Kostelić siblings managed to make it to the pinnacle of the sport. They would both go on to win again at the World Championships a month later - although this time a day apart. They have been speaking to Marta Medvešek about what it felt like to chase — and achieve —their dreams together. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive and testimony.

What happens when a six-month holiday turns into a 14-year life chapter? You pack a bag for a gap year in the snow and accidentally stumble into a whole new world - a career, a husband, a mortgage, and three children. On paper, it’s the fairytale expat dream. But eventually, the adventure stops feeling like freedom and starts feeling like distance. Georgia Louise was living that dream as a ski patroller in Canada. However, when the global pandemic hit, her perception of being "a flight away" changed to feeling "a world away". That was the moment of the pivot: The realisation that to move forward, she had to go back to where she started - but as a completely different person. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson talks to Georgia about the decision to pack up over a decade of life into seven suitcases to chase a dream she’d been ignoring for years: To become a nurse. Georgia opens up about the "messy middle" of relocating a family of five to regional New South Wales with no credit rating, no local employment history and nothing but a heartfelt letter to convince a landlord to take a chance on them. We unpack the reality of dismantling a comfortable life to start from scratch, the humility of sitting in a university lecture hall with 18-year-olds as a mature-age student and how Georgia uses her thriving social media platform to fund her studies. Join us for a conversation about the logistics of moving a family across the globe when the pull of home becomes too loud to ignore. Get ready to be inspired by a woman who is proving that it is never too late to go back to school. THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay.
