PUSH YOUR LIMITS!
Shehan Strong is the direct result of Ryan surviving a near-death motorsports incident in early January 2020. After the incident, the motorsports community rallied behind Ryan. With donations coming in from around the world, Ryan’s progress was documented by the #ShehanStrong hashtag. Now Ryan is racing again and inspiring, engaging, and impact kids to “Push Your Limits”!

Pathfinder Program
Ryan interviews leaders about how they found their passion and followed their dreams, who was instrumental in helping them, and what challenges they overcame. These are published via his Social Media and websites, as well as used in his speaking events.
