Town of Pittsboro Announces Fourth Offering of PBO-101 Academy; Registration Open Until October 18th Pittsboro, NC - The Town of Pittsboro is proud to announce the next offering of our Citizen's Academy, known as "PBO 101."

Travis Brady presents MAKE ROOM FOR HEALING: 40 Tips From a Breast Cancer Survivor, with Chris Amsbary at Flyleaf Books
Flyleaf Books 752 MLK Jr Blvd, Chapel HillAccessible, heartfelt, and witty, this short collection of simple, practical tips offers self-care, healing, and recovery, from a stage-3 breast cancer survivor. Flyleaf will offer seating for up to 70 in-person guests, with priority access given to folks who purchase the book. Please indicate in the comments if you’d like 1-2 seats held for you at the event. Signing line at 5:30pm, talk begins at 6:00pm. Travis Brady is surviving and thriving past her Stage 3A ER+ PR+ breast cancer diagnosis in 2016. Brady has spent her 30-year career in marketing and employee relations working for some global powerhouses like Levi Strauss & Co and Visa. She’s at her best when turning around underperforming brands or teams. Her modus operandi is to “maximize” by looking for ways to make things better and improve. This inherent nature led her to write, Make Room for Healing: 40 Tips from a Breast Cancer Survivor, to pay forward all the help she received when undergoing treatment. Brady lives in Chapel Hill, NC with her husband and daughter. To learn more, please visit TravisBrady.com and follow the author on Instagram @travis_brady. Chris Amsbary hosts a weekly radio show on WCOM-FM alongside Jenny Cook. He also develops solar farms for a living, coaches soccer, is a husband (to Dr. J), dad (to Maggie), and new dog owner (to Eggroll).
