On the brink of burnout, Renee Bruns made the thoughtful decision to leave her corporate role and embark on a year-long travel adventure. In this episode, Renee joins host Meg McKeen to share the "why" that fueled her decision and the way she's navigated her own relationship with risk in her travels - and life. Renee also shares two key lessons shes learned this past year and what's up next for her. 

In May 2022, Renee Bruns left her executive role at a Fortune 500 on a mission to see the world and reshape her views of humanity. After a life of living with an undiagnosed physical disability that has caused her to use a wheelchair full-time, she set out to find her place in this world. Through her travels to 117 countries and all 7 continents, she has become a Guinness World Record Holder and has been featured on numerous media sites.

Renee has spent months reflecting and learning to live authentically, something she is passionate about and hopes to help others achieve as well. She will be on sabbatical until May 2023, when she hopes to announce her future plans to help others live to their fullest.
