My Story
How I found freedom.
My name is Ryan Snow. I have been a World Cup Freestyle Skier and an Olympic Coach that coaching athletes to 2 Olympic Games. My life was full of connections and excitement traveling the world coaching athletes to be their best. I had a great family with a beautiful wife and daughter. After I retired as an athlete I was struggling with my mental health. I didn't know it at the time but I had lost a part of myself in that transition. I Moved on to coaching Australian, and USA National teams. After Slowly things started to go wrong. I had moved away from my family for work. I lost a bunch of money in investments. I lost friends to suicide and I started to become very unhappy. I didn’t notice at first, but I was losing connection with my family and friends. I was spending a lot of time alone.
I started a job creating a Ski team in Brazil. With this team, I prepared and qualified 2 athletes to the 2014 Olympics in a 18 month period. Although this was very successful on paper, I traveled 280+ days a year with my team with massive language barriers, using google translate for nearly all communication. In this way, it was hard to connect, combining with the reality of being far away from the people I loved. This is where things started to go down hill. Then a real tragedy happened. One of my athletes had a terrible accident. She hit a tree while skiing and became paralyzed from the neck down. Although I was not deemed at fault for this accident and it truly wasn't, I couldn’t get over it. I couldn’t sleep, I blamed myself and beat myself up everyday. There is nothing that can prepare you for an experience like this and the trauma impact it leaves.
I started to really close up. Alone and broken I started to drink everyday, then moved into drugs. Spiralling down into the drugs I lost my wife, and connection with my daughter. I was doing terrible at my job but nobody asked if I needed help. I was lost in my pain until I got caught by my Mom with the drugs. I found an end to my addiction through meditation, mindset, yoga, self care and learning to love myself again. I came to terms with some very dark traumas that happened as a child through plant medicine. Those childhood traumas were a program of self hate, worthlessness and was why I felt abandoned and not worthy of love. I was not aware of how much I was suffering until I went through my addiction and really found out what it is like to be happy.
In retrospect, I also can see the massive gaps and flaws in the system that left me without proper mental wellbeing & support leading up to my rock bottom and through it. This is why I choose to assist others in prevention of crisis like what happened to me through coaching and ceremony.
I had lived my whole life in the dark to who I was. I never knew how much I was operating on auto pilot or how much I lived in the past and how depressed I really was. Through mindset coaching, transformational recovery and plant medicine ceremony, I have taken my power back and changed my life. I know what it feels like to walk through the fires of rock bottom and rise from it. With me, you'll always have a safe place free of judgement to rediscover your truth and embody your best self.
