Michelle Lee from Sydney chased her dream and became the first woman to row the Pacific Ocean solo, non-stop, and unassisted.

She departed Ensenada, Mexico on 8th August 2022 and arrived at Port Douglas, Australia on 8th April 2023. She spent 240 days at sea. Alone.

In this presentation, Michelle shares her journey to inspire and motivate you to follow your heart and chase your dreams. She navigated a world of firsts including having a shark land on her boat and the depths of isolation where she did not see another vessel for 4 months.

Michelle will encourage you to step outside your comfort zone, align your head and heart, and don’t die wondering. ‘Start thinking you can and you will’ was her motto, which has become her mantra.
