From breaking records at Florida State to co-creating XPT and HIGHX with her husband, big-wave surfer Laird Hamilton, Gabby has continually pushed the boundaries of performance and wellness. We talk about identity beyond achievement, how she’s navigated motherhood and ambition, and what it really means to live with strength and grace.
