Wanted to make sure everyone saw this interview with @ski diva in Mountain Women Magazine:

Wendy Clinch: Creating Community For Skiing Women, One Goddess at a Time

A Q & A with Wendy Clinch owner and founder of TheSkiDiva.com one of our subjects on Women Breaking Trails for the Younger Generation by Kristen Lummis, the Brave Ski Mom (Kristen Lummis) KL: Y…

It's a really nice interview and is written by our very own @braveskimom of The Brave Ski Mom.

I particularly liked the last question:

KL: Finally, what puts the Diva in a Ski Diva?

WC: That’s a good question. Diva has come to have a negative connotation: it can mean someone who’s temperamental and kind of a pain in the butt. But the original Latin meaning of Diva is Goddess, and I like to think that all women who love to ski are ski goddesses in their own right.

Love this explaination.
Without looking it up, I always thought Diva was a dirivative of divine. This makes total sense as Goddess is also divine.
