S01E94 Her sponsorship fell through. Twice. Instead of quiting Paula Ralph choose to go solo

from The Empowered Women Life Leaders Podcast · host Karen Bashford

This week on the Empowered Women Life Leaders podcast, host Karen Bashford talks with Paula Ralph, a sports therapist and ultra-endurance cyclist whose story embodies courage and commitment. What started as a spontaneous decision to cycle the world’s longest route, from Cape Town towards Russia, turned into a solo, unsupported ultra-ride after sponsorships fell through and her plans were upended. Paula shares how she turned setbacks into fuel, why she chose to ride alone, and what it really takes to keep going when fear, doubt, and pressure to not “let people down” all collide.   Becoming Whole Again: From Emotional Survival to Personal Transformation https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1965480578
