How to Overcome Fear, Trust Your Instincts & Live a Life of Purpose with World Champion Hedvig Wessel
Today’s guest is Hedvig Wessel, a professional skier and the 2024 Freeride World Tour champion. Now, if you’re not sure what freeride skiing is, it involves navigating the most challenging mountain terrain, and due to its dangerous nature, it’s a sport for only the most highly skilled skiers. One wrong move could be fatal.
What is incredible about Hedvig – and one of the reasons I was keen to invite her onto the show – is her general outlook on life: the approach she takes to following her passion and living her truth.
In our conversation, we cover so many different topics that – although discussed in the context of being a World Champion skier – I believe, have huge relevance for each and every one of us. We talk about conquering negative thoughts, how to manage anxiety, the importance of exploring our own personal limits, and how we can best overcome fear, and turn our struggles into growth.
Hedvig shares her inspiring journey to becoming world champion, and we discuss how pursuing our own passions can lead to a more meaningful and purposeful life. We explore the rituals Hedwig uses to prepare for competition, the importance of trusting our instincts in critical moments and how spending time in nature has shaped her perspective on life and death.
We also discuss why Hedwig chooses to work with an Ayurvedic health coach, why she has decided to stop competing despite being the reigning world champion, and she shares a powerful visualisation exercise that she uses to make difficult decisions.
This conversation is a masterclass in purposeful living, following your passion, and the power of self-reflection. Hedvig’s insights on pushing limits, overcoming fear, and living with intention will inspire you to approach your own challenges with renewed courage and clarity.
