Description

Enjoy this Season Highlight from the Ski Moms Podcast

This week, we’re revisiting one of our most inspiring conversations on the Ski Moms Podcast—our interview with Tracy Meier, Chief Program and Education Officer at the National Ability Center in Park City, Utah.

Tracy shares how the NAC creates life-changing outdoor experiences for individuals of all abilities—including adaptive ski and snowboard programs for kids, veterans, and families. If you’ve ever wondered what inclusion looks like on the mountain, this episode is a must-listen.

🎙️ In this episode, we cover:

  • What adaptive skiing really means—and who it’s for
  • How NAC trains instructors and equips families for success
  • The importance of building confidence and community on snow
  • Tips for parents looking to get started with adaptive sports
  • Real stories of transformation from the NAC’s programs

Whether you're a parent of a child with different abilities, a skier curious about inclusion, or simply someone who believes everyone deserves access to the mountains—Tracy’s wisdom and warmth will stick with you.
