# 196 — Becky Switzer

The NonProphet Podcast

Becky Switzer approaches life with an openness, acceptance, and celebration of life-long learning. She is an educator and athlete who invests deeply in her community and people. She spent her younger — "soccer is life" — years playing goalkeeper and earned her way to a college scholarship at that position. These days she is recognized as one of the top climbers in her home state of Montana. During this conversation we speak about expectations, responsibility, sport performance, gender differences therein and the social demands that derive from the commodification of passion. The subtitle of this conversation could easily be, "The Antithesis of Acquisition". Becky is an inspiration whose strength, curiosity, hard work, and commitment to walk step-by-step along her own journey naturally moves others to greater effort, thus experience.
