À propos de ce contenu audio
When your child refuses to ski, it's easy to feel frustrated, defeated, or just plain confused — especially when you've been looking forward to the day. In this episode, I share my 4-step rescue plan for turning a resistant skier around, drawing from both her 20 years as a professional ski instructor and her own real moments of struggle with her five kids.
She walks through why kids push back in the first place (fear, frustration, or simply feeling powerless), and then breaks down exactly what to do about it: have a real conversation and actually listen, give your child meaningful choices within boundaries, bring the fun back through games and connection, and know when to call it a day to protect the long game.
This episode is honest, practical, and reassuring — a reminder that a kid who doesn't want to ski today isn't a kid who will never love skiing. They just need to feel heard, respected, and like skiing is something happening with them, not to them.
