We know things get busy in December, so we're revisiting one of our FAVORITE topics...ski travel. In this episode we talk with Brianne Manz, ski mom of 3 (ages 14, 12, 10) and founder of Stroller in the City. Brianne went to ski in Europe at an all-inclusive Club Med resort.

Shape & Size Inclusive Snow Pants with Maria Baker, Founder of Nobody’s Princess
Become a Premium Subscriber and Support the Ski Moms for $3/month
In this episode we meet Maria Baker, the founder of Nobody’s Princess, a size and shape inclusive brand of ski and snowboard pants for women. Maria started snowboarding with friends about 9 years ago (at age 30) and instantly fell in love with being on the snow.
Right away, Maria struggled to find snow pants that fit her properly. She kept ripping them, squeezing into pants that did not fit well and felt uncomfortable. When covid impacted Maria’s job in travel, she saw it was the right time to launch Nobody’s Princess. After some researching and networking Maria used indigogo and kickstarter to launch her snow pants. Nobody’s Princess snow pants have sizing that includes different lengths (short, regular, tall) in sizes 2-20. The snow pants come in a variety of fun colors like aqua, violet and raspberry.
We loved learning about how Maria sourced real life women from her local Facebook group to model her pants.
Maria also tells us about the ski resorts in Australia, including Buller and Thredbo and her favorite apres ski snacks.

Jessica Winstanley Talks Skiing and Squash with the Ski Moms
Become a Premium Subscriber and Support the Ski Moms for $3/month
In this episode we meet with Jessica Winstanley a ski and squash mom, who carves out time from her busy life in NYC to ski Plattekill Mountain. Plattekill has everything Jess and her family are looking for in a local ski resort, located in Roxbury, New York, a 3 hour drive from New York City.
Jessica tells us more about the sport of squash. We learn about what we would expect to see at a squash match and some of the basis rules. Squash is a physically demanding sport that requires some serious strategy. It’s fast paced and a great workout.
But to bring it back to skiing, Jessica knew early on that skiing was going to be part of their family life. The family started at Mohawk Mountain (Cornwall, CT) and went on to other areas within driving distance of NYC. Eventually Jess found her happy place, Plattekill Mountain (Roxbury, NY) first taking day trips and then renting a seasonal ski house. Jessica had great things to say about the mountain’s race and learn to ski programs.

Great insights, deep knowledge and thoughtful questions
Loved being interviewed by Nicole and Sarah! They are fun, caring, sharp and bring a great perspective on the mountains. They know their ski lingo and their ski resorts and still manage to explain everything in a down to earth and relatable way. Be sure to tune into these two weekly to see where they take us next!
Love Ski Moms!
I love this podcast for my morning walks. I’ve been catching up on past episodes and they’re all still so relevant. I am a beginner skier with beginner daughter and I learn something from every episode!
