Meet Max Powers – Adventurer, Instructor, and Community-Minded Realtor | CREATE - The Podcast

Since 1994, Max has called the Columbia Valley home – a place that mirrors his passion for the outdoors, people, and possibility. His career has been anything but conventional: from building homes and launching early internet companies to founding flight schools and competing four times in the gruelling Red Bull X-Alps adventure race.

Today, Max wears many hats—realtor with Re/Max Invermere, paddling guide with Columbia River Paddle, and chief instructor at flyingMax.com, where he shares his love of paragliding and ultralight aviation. At the heart of everything he does is a drive to help others chart their course—whether that’s through buying a home, discovering adventure, or simply reconnecting with what matters.

In this episode, Max reflects on loss, resilience, and how embracing a life of movement, curiosity, and connection continues to shape his evolving journey.
