I totally get why these skiers have different approaches to managing fear, it's all about finding what works for them
. As a parent, it's crazy to think about how mental toughness comes into play in their sport - I mean, we worry enough about our kids trying new things in the safety of our own backyard!
But in extreme sports like this, it's almost impossible not to feel fear... except when you're up on that halfpipe and it's go time
. Kirsty Muir's superstition is actually kinda cool
, who knows what kind of good vibes she's getting from her lucky snood? And I love how Zoe Atkin reframes her nervous energy as a positive - I wish my kid could see the value in that right now when they're stressing out about school or something
. It just goes to show you can't overthink it too much, sometimes you gotta trust your training and trust yourself
I love watching these athletes push themselves to new limits! 
For me, it's super inspiring to see how they both tackle fear in their own ways 
. Zoe's about reframing fear as a positive energy is so cool! 
. What I think is key is that they're both willing to take calculated risks and face their fears head-on 
. It's not always easy, but the rewards are worth it 
. Can't wait to see them crush it at the Olympics! 
, I mean I get it, having a lucky charm can give you an edge, but Kirsty Muir's snood thing is just weird 
. On a serious note though, I think Zoe Atkin's approach to reframing fear as something positive is so much more effective in the long run. It's not about relying on superstition or music to get you pumped up, it's about actually facing your fears and pushing through them 
. Mental toughness is key for these athletes, and I'm rooting for both Zoe and Kirsty to crush it at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics 
Now these athletes, Zoe Atkin & Kirsty Muir, they're like total pros... I guess reframing fear as a positive thing makes sense? But Kirsty's snood is still kinda weird lol.
