Woody Roseland    

Eight-Time Cancer Survivor, Amputee & Motivational Speaker

Woody Roseland, an eight-time cancer survivor and amputee is passionate about bringing the best out of people. Woody combines his story of diagnosis, relapse and amputation with his stand-up comedy roots to deliver an relatable, impactful and unforgettable experience that your audience won’t soon forget.

As a 17-year-old high school football player, a nagging pain turned into something much worse - a rare form of bone cancer. As the years past, the cancer persistently lingered in Woody’s life eventually taking his left leg. But it couldn’t take his excitement and love for life. Over the years Woody has fought back against his disease by living life on his terms - launching companies, competing in endurance events, becoming an accomplished filmmaker and traveling the world sharing his message. Each step along his journey has added layers of perspective and levity that he happily shares with audiences.
