3: Jeffrey Knopf: The One Cancer Left Behind

Artist Jeffrey Knopf didn't think he'd end up a widow in his 40s. But six months ago, his wife Tara lost her fight with terminal cancer - leaving Jeff and their daughter Ruby heartbroken.  So as the midnight bell tolled signalling that start of a new year, Jeff has decided to embrace his inner 'fuck it' mentality and make a new start.  2018 for him is about finding a new way of living, no longer hiding behind his grief, and empowering himself - and his daughter - to find a way to finally thrive on life, not survive.  The Fuck It Moments Podcast host Clare met Jeff in a coffee shop in Altrincham before Christmas. They talk about how their conversation - just two strangers connecting by chance - inspired them both to make some big changes, whatever challenges life may throw along the way.
