One of the best female snowboarders in the world, Olympic athlete Spencer O’Brien was expected to win gold at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, but fans were surprised and disappointed when she placed only 12th. Few people knew that Spencer was suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, hiding a debilitating pain that impacted her ability to compete. After the defeat, she retreated to her hometown of Alert Bay, BC, in traditional Kwakwaka’wakw territory. With the guidance of her family and close-knit community, she reconnected with her Indigenous culture, helping her regain the strength to re-enter the sport and defy all odds. This thrilling tale of perseverance and personal reawakening invites us into Spencer’s world and gives us an intimate look at the determination required to chase big dreams, revealing that our roots are often our biggest strength.
