from Where Have You Been? - Travel Stories · host William Roehm

I feel truly inspired this week. In this incredible episode my guest Risa August shares her incredible journey of living with acromegaly, a rare disease caused by a tumor at the base of her brain. She discusses her transformation into a patient advocate, her passion for travel, and how cycling has played a significant role in her healing process. Rissa recounts her experiences biking from Canada to Mexico, walking the Camino de Santiago, and exploring various countries, including her adventures in Nepal and Machu Picchu. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes the importance of connection, living life fully, and embracing challenges, all while inspiring listeners to pursue their own journeys.
