Pat Wetzel is the award winning, Amazon best-selling author of Bump In The Road: 15 Stories of Courage, Hope and Resilience. She is also a speaker, a pilot,and an acclaimed photographer. Her popular podcast Bump In The Road, which provides the stories for her book series, explores the power of human courage as guests confront their fears, challenge their beliefs, and take courageous steps toward personal and spiritual growth. Bump in the Road is an apt description of Pat’s own journey. She’s gone from Wharton Business School and multibillion dollar Wall Street deals to near total disability; from disability to divorce; from a chance encounter with an esoteric aviation sport, soaring, flying high performance sailplanes (gliders) and all the lessons of joy, accomplishment, fear and perseverance, that goes with such a sport. Throw in 6 years dealing with “incurable cancer”, a global award-winning travel blog, and her story is one that inspires us all. From this journey, and through her speaking, books, and podcast, she shares the collective wisdom of her podcast guests, as well as her own experiences.
