More about Michelle;

Michelle Lee is an adventurer, speaker and mindset mentor who left corporate banking to pursue a life of extreme challenges. She is the first Australian woman to row any ocean solo and the first woman IN THE WOLRD to row the Pacific Ocean solo unassisted and without stopping.

She also just so happened to be Australia’s first woman to row any ocean solo when she conquered the Atlantic in 2019.

That same year she was awarded The Australian Geographic’s Adventurer of the year – just one of only five women to ever receive the accolade.

She also holds the world record for the fastest woman to row one million meters on a Concept 2 rowing machine. She is an adventurer, a speaker and a mindset coach who lives by her motto: “Start thinking you can and you will”.

Michelle endured storms, sharks, solitude and exhaustion as she rowed for thousands of kilometres across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. She also experienced the beauty and wonder of nature, from dolphins and whales to sunsets and stars. She learned to appreciate every moment and every stroke.
