Cody Townsend: The Moment I Realized My Ego Was Dangerous | MTNPOD #178
About this episode
Cody Townsend discusses his evolution from ego-driven skiing to a focus on risk management and mental toughness.
Cody Townsend joins the MTNTOUGH Podcast for a raw conversation on evolving from ego-driven free-riding to mature risk management, knowing when to turn around, and finding deeper mental toughness through suffering. He opens up about the death of friends that forced a mindset shift, completing 46 of the 50 classic ski descents, raising a son while staying in the mountains, training his “mountain-proof” body through strength work and trail running, and the alarming impact of climate change on skiing and public lands. Cody also shares why he believes hunters and anglers are the best conservationists and how storytelling can inspire more people to protect wild places.
