Quotes from the episode:
“My middle name is now Fasani and my last name is Bencheter on all my travel documents.”
“When we’re out in the mountains we are best friends – just like the way we are at home.”
“I drifted off the side of a jump… I did my ACL, MCL, PCL and broke my pelvis in that crash, it took me off snow for a year.”
“I  was able to reconfigure who I was and what I wanted to accomplish.”
“I felt like my mind was stronger than my body for all of last season.”
“I repeat reading this book …It’s called Be Like Water.”
“Fear really can’t exist when you’re in the present moment.”
“During my injury one of my biggest focuses was being ok with just being quiet and listen to my mind.”
“I got out of surgery and I asked my doctor if he thought that I would be able to do a triathlon six months from my surgery date.”
“I figured that if I could do a triathlon before I got back on snow then I would be strong enough, mentally and physically for the season.”
“I try not to eat dairy – except when I was in Europe for a month.”
“My diet mostly consists of a vegan diet.”
“For me school was just my way to make sure that I had a back-up plan.”
