Roz Savage, First Woman Ever to Row Solo Across Three Oceans and Author

It was an uncanny experience reading Katie's book. There were so many similarities in the way we experienced the Atlantic, and the insights we gained, it was like reliving my own crossing - but reading about it is a lot more fun than doing it! Great life lessons in every chapter, which are sure to inspire and uplift you, no matter what your "ocean".

Katie’s raw recollection of her once-in-a-lifetime excursion will bring out the wanderlust in anyone who has ever set their eyes on a horizon and decided to run toward it, regardless of the outcome. Her willingness to bare her inner soul should serve as a lesson to us all, to chase our deepest callings with gusto and fortitude as she did. Reading her story is like peering into the private journal of a true adventurer; it’s honesty has reminded me that we all have oceans to cross and it is up to us to find the beauty in the waves that surround us.
