When Dovid asked me what truth I had discovered from my skiing journey that helped me in
future,
first thing that came to my mind was that it prepared me for my divorce. Four years after I learned to ski I faced a huge upheaval in my life. It was not something I was expecting.
I had been a stay-at-home mom for thirteen years and now I would have to be on my own as a single mom caring for two young children. This felt overwhelming to me. I felt
same sheer terror as I did on
top of that mountain only more so. Having faced that kind of terror before and survived, made me confident that I could face this even greater challenge of divorce.
