27. Follow Your Passion with Kristen Gershkoff (SLACKLINE)

The Line to Mastery with Cam Nelson

Kristen Gershkoff is a powerful slackliner, sweet soul, and humble crusher. In this podcast, we drop in about her story, her experience with slacklining and getting connected with the slacklife. How the highline enveloped her heart and became a tool for her to deeper understand herself, connect with community, and eventually get into van life. She shares the experience of ripping apart her van to make it her own and her most memorable experiences in the sport thus far. Kristen has a huge heart that exudes loving kindness. It is felt big time in this episode and the way she shows up in her life.
In my opinion this episode was cut a little too short. At the time, we were highlining out in Moab and I was just running through recording episodes and experimenting with short simple podcasts. On further reflection, it could have been a bit longer because Kristen has such a wonderful energy and there is so much of her story still left untouched. No doubt we will drop in again for a podcast when the flow brings us back together. Until then, enjoy this short and sweet episode with Kristen!
Lots of exciting news that I will wait until next week to share with you all. So much love <3
Recorded in a heart expanding and texture filled van in the always magical Moab, Utah
