In this episode of the Mind Mountain Podcast, I sit down once again with my good friend Michael Sousa - a seasoned coach, guide, and freeride mentor from Whistler, BC. With nearly two decades of experience on the steeps and jumps of the Sea to Sky, Mike shares what itโ€™s like coaching everything from first-time riders to up-and-coming mtb professionals.

We dive deep into the psychology of progression, fear management, and how to truly build lasting confidence on the bike. We also reveal a new project - a mini-series documenting the journey of facing my fears and learning to backflip, from zero experience to upside-down airtime. Mike breaks down the safe and structured way to take on big goals, and we unpack the difference between surface-level skill hacks and deep, sustainable growth as riders.

This one is full of real talk, laughs, coaching gold, and a whole lot of passion for helping riders unlock their potential.
