Will this decision give me more or less freedom?

For as long as I’ve known her, that principle has guided the life of Steph Davis, a wonderful and inspiring person who I am very honored to call a friend. I really enjoyed this new portrait of Steph and her life in Moab, past and present.

As a public person, Steph has wrestled with some of the biggest life events imaginable. It’s not as though she has always taken these blows in stride or made it all look easy. Rather, she has maintained a certain equanimity among the roughest tides, holding fast to a thoughtful, grounded, and ethical clarity that is so rare to find in another person. She’s a source of strength and inspiration for reasons that have nothing to do with her climbing, jumping, or flying achievements. And after all, what is the real value of doing these extreme sports if not to prepare us to one day weather all the storms of life?

Enjoy this film about a true modern-day stoic, who embodied that way of living before that philosophy became trendy among tech bros optimizing their morning routines and snorting chaga-shots.
