"Après" Film Mountain in My Mind 2

About Molly Kawahata
As a former climate advisor to the Obama White House and an ice climber with dreams of climbing steep mountains, Molly has dedicated her life to taking on seemingly insurmountable challenges. But it’s her intimate battle with mental health that gives her a profound understanding of how to harness the power of the human mind to create change. Molly creates a new climate narrative that centers her favorite question – “What can I do to help?” – with a surprising answer. She discusses what it will take to solve the greatest issue of our time. Stream the 60 minute Patagonia film about her climbing and mindset, The Scale of Hope, to get hyped for the event!

Mental Health Panel
Jeremy Harder will moderate a panel of: Keynote Speaker Molly Kawahata, Lone Peak High School Navigator Chloe Unger, Gallatin County Deputy Dan Hayden, & Big Sky Ski Patroller Sean Holbine

Mountain in My Mind 2: Tragedy into Triumph
Tragedy Into Triumph is the 2nd film from Mountain in My Mind. The film features male and female professional skiers and snowboards and their words about mental health in the snow sports industry. This breakthrough film follows in the footsteps of last year's film by interviewing skiers across the “Suicide Belt” in the Rocky Mountain Region of the United States, as well as showcasing their skiing abilities.

The film has one goal: Destigmatize talking about mental health and suicide in the ski industry.
