About this episode

Bora Ergör interviews Paralympian Dani Aravich about her experiences in sports and advocacy.

Welcome back to a brand new episode of Take Off Your Shoes. After a long summer break, I’m back and stoked to introduce my guest, Dani Aravich . While she might be a “budding” trail runner, she’s also a Paralympian, having competed in both the Summer and Winter Paralympic Games , and now she’s preparing for the upcoming Milano Cortina Games. Of course, she’s far beyond her athletic achievements. What stood out to me most was her encouragement of curiosity and her ability to create a space where all questions are welcome. Having been on the business side, the media side, and the athlete side of the sports she’s involved in, she brings a truly unique perspective to her work and advocacy. This was an incredibly meaningful conversation where I got to learn a lot, and I’m very grateful to Dani for it. I cannot wait for you to listen.
