Ep. #22 - Belen Ramirez | Body Dysmorphia, Doctors Without Borders, PTSD, & ProjectBikeLove

Born in the 'machista' community of Paraguay, South America, right from a young age, Belen dealt with body dysmorphia as she was made to believe that she was too muscular for a girl. But being rebellious by nature, she didn't shy away from taking part in activities that she wanted to. As she got older, Belen joined her dream organisation of Doctors Without Borders, even then, she continued to stay active as a way to cope with stress. After being deployed for missions to remote areas where she worked in environments of war, she returned home with PTSD. It was then when she discovered the therapeutic effects of bicycles - which allowed her to live the life she wanted to live. Now, she has fallen in love with the 70.3 distance as it allows her to keep going on missions, traveling & enjoying life. And she has also co-founded a non-profit, ProjectBikeLove who empower underprivileged women around the world, with their tool being - bicycles. Listen as Belen shares her incredible journey in this conversation filled with fun and interesting stories and inspiring messages. Show Notes: http://www.humansoftriathlon.com/hotpodcast-belen
