Ep 11 - Meghann O'Brien on finding flow in snowboarding & weaving + much more

In this episode I chat to former pro snowboarder turned weaver and artist Meghann O'Brien. We chat about:

  • How she fell in love and out of love with snowboarding. The challenges of filming mountain films, the toxic side of competition, and how it relates to intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation.
  • How Meghann accesses flow states, how the feel of these states differ when snowboarding versus weaving
  • much, much more

Like many, nature and adventure has deeply transformed who I am.

I like to envision the wisdom, healing, and flow states gifted to me in nature as whispers from the mountain, transmissions that bring out our best selves, give us clarity of purpose, and our show us place in the world.

This project is an exploration of how people like to play outdoors, the way it bring meaning and transformation, and what it looks like to build a practice to give us reliable access to inspiration, connection, and healing.
