EP 3: Jake Bailey

February 03, 2021 • White Line Podcast • Episode 3

As far as inspirational stories go, they don't come much bigger than this. In 2015 in his grade twelve year, out of nowhere, Jake Bailey was diagnosed with with Stage 4 Burkitt's Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. This is a brutally aggressive form of cancer and essentially, if it went untreated any longer Jake had a matter of weeks to live.

Fast forward more than five years and Jake is an endurance sport beast. Amongst his athletic endavours, Jake is also a public speaker, charity ambassador, business owner and author.

This episode was recorded on January 27 2021, two days before Jake's 5 year remission from the cancer. He's a genuinely lovely fella with an amazing story to tell, and we know that you'll come to the end of this episode with a smile on your face and a greater appreciation for the little things that life has offer.

This is the White Line Podcast, episode 3, with Jake Bailey.
