Ten years after cancer surgery, Mike Bolland found himself on the field at an Arizona Cardinals game, representing all cancers during the NFL’s Crucial Catch recognition.
In this personal episode of We’re Not Stumped, Mike reflects on the journey from surgery and radiation to pursuing two goals: performing stand-up comedy and bowling on tour one more time. Those decisions helped lead to motivational speaking, a return to competition on the PBA60 Tour, and his message, “Take the Shot Anyway.”
Mike also honors the podcast guests who have shared their own cancer journeys, including those who experienced limb loss, and the people whose support helped him through treatment and recovery.
A conversation about gratitude, life after cancer, and giving yourself a chance to pursue something that matters to you.
We’re Not Stumped shares stories from the limb loss, limb difference, and broader disability communities. Follow the podcast for more honest conversations about adapting, finding connection, and living life on your own terms.
