Brandi
“Instead of talking about accomplishments let them see your accomplishments. Being a women in a man’s world, I choose not to rock the boat, just show up and make moves.”
Brandi’s courage is undeniable. She had the bravery to leave everything behind, including a bad relationship, in pursuit of what was right for her. She continued to experience heartbreak in the form of loss, but wasn’t willing to give up and lose herself too. So she fought hard. She set goals and worked tirelessly to achieve them. Now Brandy rides through life with a passion for community and a keen sense of adventure…and she is her happiest when she is riding her Harley. Meet Brandi. This is her story.

P: Tell us a story. Have you had an experience that’s defined you or made you stronger?
B: Losing everything including myself. My relationship was not good so I tried coping with it by escaping any opportunity I could, I didn't know how to communicate and neither did my ex-husband so we grew apart really fast. When I finally got the strength and courage to leave, I left with just my clothes. Went to stay with a friend and then lost my best friend a few weeks later.
I was at rock bottom and even though I had a lot of people I could reach out to i just wanted to go through this journey on my own. Set goals and boundaries, the last year of my life has been full of blessings, which has made me stronger and have more self worth.
