Eileen Shiffrin: Raising a Champion | WTP with Mikaela Ep. 10

<p>Behind every great athlete is a village of talented people who make it all happen. But Mikaela has something most don&#39;t: Eileen.In Episode 10 of What&#39;s the Point, Mikaela sits down with the person who has been there for every single moment of her career — and her life. Her mom. Her coach. Her mentor. Her best friend. Eileen Shiffrin.It&#39;s easy to look at Mikaela&#39;s résumé and see the medals, the records, the Crystal Globes. What you don&#39;t see is the woman behind the scenes who gave up her career as a nurse to be on the road six months a year, who homeschooled Mikaela through the early Burke Mountain years, who was there for Mikaela&#39;s first World Cup, and every heartbreak since.In this episode, they get into all of it. The sacrifices and misunderstandings, including what it actually means to be on the road as a mother-daughter, coach-athlete duo (hint: it&#39;s not a European après-ski vacation). The grief of losing a father and a husband, Jeff, and how they&#39;ve carried that together. The complicated line between pushing your kid and protecting them. And Eileen&#39;s own cancer diagnosis this past fall — a moment that, for the first time in this whole journey, asked her to put herself first.You know Mikaela. Now meet the woman who raised her to chase the impossible.Follow What&#39;s the Point with Mikaela Shiffrin on Social Media for all the best moments from the show: https://www.instagram.com/wtpwithmikaela</p>
