Tumbling Through Life
Tumbling Through Life
Podcast Description
I am so excited to introduce my next guest—my infamous Puggy, Ava! Now, let me take you back a bit. Ava was one of seven variations of ‘Ava' on the team her freshman year, and with that many versions of the same name, we obviously had to get creative with nicknames. And that's where 'Pug' came in. I’m sure she probably slightly hates it (because let’s be real, ‘Ava’ fits her too), but she’ll always be Pug to me.
Ava has such a unique and inspiring story, and I can’t wait to dive into her experience here at Skyridge. She was one of only three freshman flyers in her class, and she really hit the ground running with a strong start to her high school cheer career. Today, we’re going to talk about the highs and lows of flying and what it really takes to push through at an elite level.
I know this story is going to be so insightful for athletes, especially when it comes to confidence and mindset. If you’ve ever doubted yourself or faced a challenge that felt too big to overcome, this episode is definitely for you!"

In this special episode of Tumbling Through Life, I’m sitting down with my favorite person — my husband, Kjell. 🤍
You hear me talk all the time about coaching, cheer, tumbling, big dreams, and building confidence… but today we’re talking about what it looks like behind the scenes. The late nights, the gym life, the podcast ideas, the chaos, the passion — and what it’s really like being married to someone who lives and breathes this world.
Kjell shares his perspective on Tumbling Through Life, what he’s learned from watching me coach and build this platform, and the real-life balance of family, marriage, and chasing big goals. It’s honest, a little funny, and a lot of heart.
If you’ve ever wondered what the journey looks like from the other side — or you’re building something big with a partner by your side — this one’s for you.
Because at the end of the day, we’re not just chasing dreams… we’re tumbling through life together. 💫
