In this deeply heartfelt episode of The Circle of Hope, I reconnect with one of my favorite coaching partners, Donald Stup, for an intimate, live conversation about navigating life after a life-changing health diagnosis. Donald bravely shares his journey from discovering a tumor on his spinal cord to adapting to significant shifts in mobility—including time spent in a wheelchair and recovery from a broken hip. Our discussion goes far beyond medical procedures as Donald opens up about the real, daily mind games, fluctuating emotions, and the process of acceptance he’s faced along the way.Throughout our talk, Donald and I explore the vital role that relationships play in helping us grow and thrive during adversity. He reflects on the invaluable support provided by his wife, faith, friends, and even unexpected acts of kindness from strangers. We dig into how simply being present and truly listening can be more transformative than any physical assistance. Our conversation also touches on the importance of workplace and spiritual support, and the unique perspective Donald brings as a coach, both giving and receiving guidance. Listeners will walk away inspired by Donald’s resilience and the actionable ways we can all build a stronger circle of hope around ourselves and each other.Watch This If:You or a loved one is navigating a major health challenge or disabilityYou want to deepen the quality of support you offer othersYou’re struggling to ask for or accept helpYou’re interested in the intersection of faith, coaching, and personal growthYou work in healthcare, coaching, or support roles and want insight on truly impactful connectionEpisode Highlights:[00:03:36] Donald shares his diagnosis and the moment everything changed after spinal surgery[00:06:01] Discussing the tremendous impact of his wife’s support and the different circles of trust[00:14:54] What true listening looks like—Donald’s experience with a neuro physical therapist[00:23:16] The “compassion with a command” moment: an unforgettable act of kindness from a stranger during travel[00:26:40] Navigating workplace accommodations and how colleagues step up with empathy[00:40:36] Donald’s reflections on faith, spirituality, and finding greater peace through acceptance[00:56:12] Advice for others navigating a new diagnosis or isolating situation—why reaching out mattersQuotes to Remember:“It was compassion with a command.
