When Steph Jagger set herself the audacious goal of skiing four million vertical feet in a single year, she thought she was chasing a record. What she discovered instead was a profound journey into the heart of her own ambition, fear, and the cultural forces that had shaped her understanding of success.

This compelling memoir weaves together exhilarating tales from the world's most challenging slopes with unflinching introspection about what drives us to push boundaries—and what happens when those boundaries push back. Jagger's quest takes her from the peaks of the Rockies to the mountains of Austria, but the real terrain she's navigating is internal: questioning the beliefs that have governed her life and daring to redefine what it means to be truly free.

Raw, honest, and ultimately liberating, this is a story for anyone who's ever wondered whether the summit they're chasing is really their own.
