GUA- S2E13- Mike Marolt - The Expedition Team

Mike Marolt talks about his record breaking team. Mike Marolt (Aspen High Grad 83/ A leader in ski descents above 7,000 meters) (5 min) Music by Felix Plante. Produced by Twist and Turn Press. Book: Twist and Turn Press https://www.twistandturnpress.com/ T-Shirts: Threadless https://www.threadless.com/@AndyCollen Happy Trails Animation https://www.happytrailsanimation.com/ Mike Marolt by: U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame https://skihall.com/hall-of-famers/michael-steve-marolt/ By staying true to himself and finding peace at 26,000 feet, this Aspenite has became one of the country’s most accomplished ski mountaineers. The climbing exploits of Mike Marolt place him in an elite fraternity of the world’s most accomplished mountaineers. Adhering to an old-school “pure style” – without the aids of supplemental oxygen, altitude drugs and porters – pushes these achievements to an even loftier level. The fact that he culminates these climbs by descending on skis from the world’s highest peaks – while battling hypoxia, avalanche danger, obscenely dangerous terrain, minus-20 degree cold and vertigo-inducing whiteouts – places them in the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame.

Interestingly, she is coming from basically zero knowledge of that business. Being open, curious, and energetic, not to mention having a great smile, will get you a long way in this world. Just say yes, and you never know where it will lead. Her energy and positivity are infectious; being in one of her Publik Coffee shops is a wonderfully uplifting experience. The people who work there and the people who frequent there are engaged and cheery. Creating a successful business that also has this kind of vibe comes from one place: a founder with the values that attract these people. This is not one of those corporate big ideas; this comes from a single woman manifesting her spirit and energy into the world. These coffee shops work because Missy makes it that way.
