A big episode...
Been wanting to get this one going for a while now. Maarten works with me for the Windsurfing Freestyle Pro Tour as the press officer, a dream role he got last year after recovering from cancer, some would say it's fate.
We discussed his entire journey, from initial diagnosis, operation, being in the clear, not being in the clear, chemo and eventual recovery, culminating in that sweet first session back on the water.
During this telling of his story, we chatted about his mindset, feeling anxious and depressed, how defeated he was during chemo, feeling old in a young mans body and a whole lot more.
Cancer is something many of us will experience, whether first hand or through a loved one, yet much like mental health, it's something we don't like talking about, especially men. A huge thanks to Maarten for candidly sharing his experience and leading from the front.
Stay tuned for his Movember journey this month and find out more about him here.
