The Storied Human (What is your Story?)

Go ahead and text me!

Risa August is not your average human. When faced with a devastating pituitary disease diagnosis, she pushed through to find herself again. One of the things she did was participate in a bike ride from Canada to Mexico!

She published her multi-award-winning memoir "The Road Unpaved - Border to Border with a Brain Tumor and a Bike" about this major life-altering diagnosis and personal life upheaval. She found that she experienced a change in her own perspective, and faced her own limiting beliefs. After being told she "shouldn't", she decided to ride her bike the 1,845 miles from Canada to Mexico.

Her ultimate goal was to save lives, and also to inspire and empower others.
By day,Risa is a Speaker, Gestalt Practitioner and patient advocate for rare Pituitary tumors. She offers inspirational coaching to those feeling stuck within their own limiting beliefs. In her personal time, you will find her living a robust life!

Risa has been interviewed on over 55 podcasts since my her book release in October, many more will air over the next several months. Here is a link where you can listen/view those podcasts: https://www.risaaugust.com/podcast-interviews.html
