Gillian Roberts is  a fellow teacher from Canada, who is big into endurance sports and triathlons in particular. What makes Gillian's story different to most is that she developed ovarian cancer when she was in her mid-twenties. Obviously, this has had a huge impact on Gillian’s life and she now uses her online platform to spread awareness around cancer and, in particular, the recovery aspect and what life is like after cancer. She’s a super positive woman and I absolutely loved this conversation with her. We discussed her feelings around the time of her diagnosis, how she has maintained a positive mindset throughout her treatment and what life has been like for her since. We even got a few special guest appearances from Gillian’s cat, which was lovely!
