Shownotes
In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to introduce you to an inspiring duo, Timm and Leanna, the founders of Wings of Survival. This ambitious initiative blends their love for adventure and athletics with a deep commitment to environmental conservation.
Leanna, a former international track and field athlete and Canada’s first female decathlete, brings her passion for endurance sports and sustainability to the project. She’s also a personal trainer, a mom, and a cofounder of a chocolate company! Timm, a fellow endurance athlete, explorer, and PhD in global change ecology, complements this vision with his expertise in conservation and his role as an instructor at the University of Alberta.
Together, they share their incredible journey of following migratory bird routes across continents to raise awareness about climate change and biodiversity. They’ll give us a glimpse into how extreme sports, plant-based nutrition, and environmental advocacy intersect in their mission to inspire action for a healthier planet.
So, join us as we dive into their story, their experiences cycling across Canada, and their plans for this groundbreaking global expedition. Let’s get started!
