Wiley Miller’s ski career trajectory is so different from most people on the podcast. There was no competing early on and often for Wiley to earn his spot in ski movies. Wiley jumped on an opportunity early, was nominated for and won big awards early on, and parlayed that into a 20-year career of ski movies. While I wish it were all roses in this one, Wiley shares about his Mom’s battle against ALS, the ups and downs of sponsorship, owning brands, and more…And these days, while Wiley is still shredding on a pro level, he’s also a commercial pilot these days, and we get a great Nipsey Hustle story out of him during Inappropriate Questions.
