ZIZE Bikes was founded by our guest Joan Denizot over 20 years ago. She was overweight and got the horrible, vague advice that so many get, move your body and eat less!

Joan has also spent this time working with companies to make sure they understand the struggles large people have and how to make simple but impactful changes. She's...
