What happens when you lean into the things that make you different?
In this episode, I sit down with Bren Piper, a Canmore local who has represented Canada in international dry tooling competitions.
We explore the unusual world of dry tooling, a niche discipline of climbing that uses ice tools on steep rock and artificial structures, and what it takes to compete on the world stage.
But this conversation goes far beyond competition.
Bren shares how exploring unconventional hobbies, from competitive climbing to juggling fire, has shaped his approach to fear, performance anxiety, and personal growth. We talk about the mental side of competition, training for fear of falling, the pride of representing your country, and why pursuing niche passions can build confidence in unexpected ways.
It’s a thoughtful conversation about curiosity, community, and why trying things outside the mainstream might be one of the most powerful ways to grow.
