Solo Episode by Maureen Ross Gemme

In 2017, Paul and I took the most incredible trip in my life so far. It was across this beautiful country on a motorcycle (I mean trike) from Connecticut to California and back again. It took almost 6 weeks in total. There were 4 parts of the trip. The second part of the trip was with 80 other adventurers on 60 motorcycles, traveling on old Route 66, affectionately called the Mother Road, on the backroads of America.

In this episode, Maureen is going to cover the 15 Leadership Lessons Learned from Mother Road Rally Master, George Higgins who sadly passed away in April of 2022. But his legacy will never be forgotten. 

Don't delay in making big plans in your life. Keep growing and expanding into the leader you know you can be and enjoy every minute of it.
