In this episode the Ski Moms welcome Alice Merryweather, former U.S. Ski Team member and recent Dartmouth graduate. Alice shares her path from a Massachusetts recreational skier to World Cup competitor, and now to her post-racing life. Like many East Coast racers, Alice started at her local mountain - Attitash in New Hampshire. Alice's ski journey led through Stratton Mountain School to earning a spot on the U.S. Ski Team at 19, where she competed on the World Cup circuit and represented Team USA at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang.

Alice speaks openly about navigating injuries, eating disorder recovery, and completing her degree at Dartmouth while maintaining her professional skiing career. Her candid discussion about mental health advocacy and the support she received from teammates and family offers valuable insights for athletes and families facing similar challenges.

Now a recent college graduate, Alice shares how she's rediscovering skiing for pure enjoyment while exploring new career opportunities. Her perspective on transitioning from elite athletics provides a thoughtful look at life after competitive racing.
