Dr. Roz Savage
SPEAKER | AUTHOR | OCEAN ROWER
“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” – Andre Gide
Roz Savage is the first (and so far only) woman to row solo across the world’s “Big Three” oceans: Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian. She holds four Guinness World Records, and was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire for services to fundraising and the environment.
It was an unexpected career move for a former management consultant who doesn’t particularly enjoy exercise. She was inspired to brave the oceans when she realised two things: 1) we are all capable of much more than we tend to believe we are, and 2) we need to make some changes if we’re going to live healthy lives on a thriving planet. So she used her voyages to expand her own limits, and to promote sustainable living.
She now writes, speaks, and lectures on sustainability, courage, resilience, and change. Roz Savage’s new show “Sowing the Seeds of Change” premiers on WPVM Tuesday November 23 at 9:00 am and encores Thursday November 25 at 6:00 pm
