Josh Perry is an extraordinary human. He oozes positivity and light. Josh is a pro BMX rider and has competed in the world’s largest competitions: Dew Tour, X Games, and for US troops stationed overseas. Just like your story, Josh’s is unique.

Josh is currently living with 4 brain tumors. He is a fighter and has come back from not only an ACL surgery, but brain surgery too.

In this podcast, Josh talks to us about how he got into BMX, how he was on the top of his game when diagnosed with a brain tumor, how life as an athlete is training us to “get back up” and the lifestyle change he made in implementing a Ketogenic diet that changed his recovery process from his ACL and has significantly impacted his brain helath.

You all are going to love this conversation, Josh Perry inspires throughout.
