039: PedalLove | The bike is a tool for optimism: Peddling authenticity, advocacy, growth markets, and heart with Pedallove's Melissa Balmer
Manage episode 224552500 series 2473841
Friends, I have a confession. I kind of have a secret love coloring books, combine that with my not-so-secret love for bikes, and well - you've got my attention. That's how I discovered PedalLove.org Founder and Editor Melissa Balmer who focuses on thought leadership and storytelling tools to grow more active, sustainable, mindful mobility.

Friends, you know I believe in the transformative power of the bike, in our personal lives, our communities, and the world at large. I would be super grateful if you’d leave a rating or review in iTunes, Stitcher, or via whatever method you listen. It helps more gals find the show, and I believe the more stories we share, the more women who ride, we make this world - both our internal and external worlds - better with every revolution.
Ratings and reviews help with that (pssst, I read your 5-star reviews on the show!!) but nothing is better than a personal referral, it’d be rad if you would share the show with even just one woman who you think might dig it.
Never forget, "Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage."
Keep moving forward and until next time I hope you enjoy the ride.
Forever Forward!
