70. Host of the Powell Movement, Mike Powell, Shares the Highs and Lows of Skiing, Injury, and Starting a Podcast

In this episode of the Legacy Podcast, I sit down with Mike Powell, the voice behind the Powell Movement podcast and a veteran of the ski industry. We dive into Mike’s 25-year journey, from his early days with K2 to becoming a prominent figure in action sports media. Mike shares his personal battles, including a life-altering knee injury that reshaped his career, and the mental challenges that followed.


We also explore the origins of the Powell Movement, his transition from athlete manager to podcast host, and the deep connections he's built along the way. Mike opens up about how skiing has provided an escape during tough times, especially as he navigates the challenges of supporting a sick spouse.


This conversation is a raw, honest look at the intersection of passion, purpose, and perseverance in the world of skiing. Whether you're a ski enthusiast or simply love a good story of resilience, this episode offers both inspiration and a behind-the-scenes look at the ski industry’s evolving landscape. Don’t miss it!
