What if the hardest climbs of your life were not obstacles-but teachers?
In Life Lessons on Two Wheels: An Executive Coach's Guide to Living a Life of Fulfillment & Meaning, Master Certified Coach Juliann Wiese weaves together personal cycling stories, leadership insight, and evidence-based psychology to explore how we grow through challenge rather than despite it.
From steep ascents and unexpected headwinds to missed turns and breathtaking summits, the bike becomes a powerful metaphor for how we navigate ambition, identity, resilience, comparison, fear, and reinvention. With honesty and warmth, Wiese shares lessons earned on the road-lessons that translate directly into how we lead, love, decide, and move forward in our lives.
Grounded in neuroscience and decades of executive coaching experience, this book explores how perspective shapes emotion, how attention directs energy, and how small mindset shifts can dramatically alter outcomes. Readers will discover how to slow down to gain clarity, how to reframe setbacks into strength, and how to ride their own line instead of chasing someone else's path.
This is not a book about cycling. It is a book about living deliberately.
For leaders, professionals, and anyone navigating change or transition, Life Lessons on Two Wheels offers practical wisdom wrapped in story-reminding us that fulfillment is not found at the summit alone, but in the courage to keep pedaling with intention, curiosity, and grace.
Whether you are facing a crossroads, rebuilding confidence, or seeking deeper meaning, this book invites you to climb, reflect, and ride forward-wiser than before.
