In this episode Nadia Chapman explores the financial and emotional costs of competitive figure skating; ice time, coaching, travel, dresses, skates, and the hidden pressures families and skaters face. She helps families learn to navigate the guilt, pressure, and sacrifices that often come with chasing big dreams.
Nadia invites listeners to reframes skating as an investment in character and resilience, and shares practical tools like setting healthy boundaries and keeping open, honest communication.
Created for both parents and skaters, this conversation is a gentle reminder to choose consciously, celebrate contribution over comparison, and prioritize peace and balance, so the pursuit of a dream strengthens, rather than strains, your relationships and personal growth.
