Lynn Braz

While becoming a flying trapeze artist at age 45, acrophobic Lynn Braz discovered perfectionism—not fear—is the number one killer of dreams. Lynn learned to befriend her fears, overcome her self-consciousness, and pursue her passions and goals. She applies the lessons she learned on the flying trapeze to her relationships, career, and travels.

As a journalist, Lynn is published in major magazines and newspapers, including Philadelphia, Cosmopolitan, San Francisco Chronicle, and The Dallas Morning News. The New York Times featured Lynn in its first “Fit City” column. She is a native of Scranton, Pennsylvania, and has lived in Philadelphia, New York, San Diego, San Francisco, the Indian Himalayas, Bali, and the South of France. Her first book, Flying Free: Life Lessons Learned on the Flying Trapeze, is an inspiring, insightful, and entertaining read that has received rave reviews on Amazon.
