#222: Surviving Cancer, Loss & Rebuilding a Life of Purpose w/ Barry Du Bois
Episode description
Imagine losing your mother to cancer, going through twelve rounds of IVF and multiple miscarriages with your partner, surviving a near-fatal fall, and then being told you have three months to live… and somehow, turning all of that into purpose.
In today’s episode, I sit down with Barry Du Bois who is a builder turned TV host & mental health advocate. Barry is a living example of resilience - he has one of the most powerful life stories I’ve ever heard.
We talk about grief, masculinity, mental health, fatherhood, and how to keep going when life keeps knocking you down.
If you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or just need perspective - this conversation could point you in the right direction.
TOPICS:
- Resilience through adversity (cancer, grief, IVF struggles)
- Masculinity and emotional expression
- The power of community, vulnerability, and purpose
