Mikaela Shiffrin
With this channel, I’m looking forward to giving you deeper insight into my story, from my own perspective, with the enormous help and effort of a select few people who have brought this concept to life. “Moving Right Along” is about more than moving forward from a series of very challenging moments in Beijing, even though that’s where it begins. It’s about learning and growth. It’s about doing the right thing for the right reasons—by “right”, I mean the reasons most important to you and your values—both on the mountain and off the mountain.
There is a lot of talk right now about how athletes are so often defined by their success and failures, but to be honest, I think that extends to almost every human on earth. Here’s the truth about my biggest and most public fail—falling three times at the Olympics is *NOT* the worst or hardest thing that I have experienced in my life, it doesn’t even make the podium. So now it’s time to move forward.
Love,
Mikaela
