Left Field – Details, episodes & analysis

What are those few professions that feel so huge, so far away, so long term, unconnected from the reality of the child who decides to fall in love with them? I'd venture a guess that both ballet dancer and wedding dress designer rank high up there for what some consider "unrealistic." From 17 years as a professional ballet dancer, to launching a bridal design business, Lennart takes us through the stages of his process. How do you keep your curiosity for your own passions long enough to see where they might take you? In this case, time and circumstance played a crucial role at an important moment, gifting Lennart a little more time and space than usual to rediscover previously enjoyed hobbies. They are no longer just hobbies.

It might feel the most common experience these days is to find yourself competing. Competing for a raise, for recognition, for praise, for a promotion, and the list goes on. But if you have an opportunity to exit that competition and enter a new one, what would you want it to look like? A competition with yourself, to become the best version of yourself, surrounded by the gorgeous French Alps and other like minded people entering the same self improvement competition sounds like a good alternative. At least it does to ultra runner and film maker Tobias Johansson, who has moved countries, changed careers, and moved back in just that pursuit.

What happens when life confronts you with immense risk you can't walk away from? We all know life carries two sides, yin and yang, dark and light, complementary opposites. This is the kind of confrontation you sign up for when you're on a mountain's edge, looking down its face, a moment away from letting the skis glide over the lip to descend the line. Sebastien Varlet tells us exactly what happens inside his mind as he carries this dualism down magnificent slopes. What he has discovered from years of big mountain skiing, is that the beauty is actually in the details.

You know that person who has gone so deep integrating something into their lifestyle you just cannot separate the two any longer? It's so beautifully a part of who they are they hardly think its worth mentioning. This is the impression I got speaking to Petter Restorp about his escapades, either deep in the mountains of Chamonix or far in the hills of Sweden. In his humility, it felt as if he thought his lifestyle were so average, and I was the person on the side lines assuring him it was nowhere near average. In a big mix of joy, presence, and athleticism Petter carves out his own path like the true mountain goat he is.
