How a Rebel with a Cause is Diversifying the Coast with Founder Risa

In this episode, we dive deep into the shores of change and unity with a truly inspiring guest – Risa, the visionary founder of Paddle for Peace. In the aftermath of George Floyd's tragic passing, Risa organized an event, which unexpectedly saw hundreds of attendees. With passion and eloquence, she delivered a speech that not only moved hearts but also ignited a movement. Paddle for Peace was born.

Paddle for Peace, now a San Diego-based 501(c)(3) Organization, has an undying commitment to diversifying our coastal spaces. Their mission is clear: empower members of the BIPOC and underserved communities to revel in ocean recreation while also educating them about the significance of ocean conservation and safety. They achieve this by shattering barriers and generously providing resources to participants at zero costs.

For those of you who have been looking for avenues to make a difference or simply be inspired, Risa’s journey and story will undoubtedly strike a chord.
