From bed-bound to walking 20,000 steps: Jop’s recovery journey

Jop’s journey with chronic fatigue syndrome started at rock bottom. At one point, the sound of his kids playing with Lego became unbearable, and life felt like it was slipping away.

But Jop didn’t give up. Through small, consistent steps, he slowly found his way back to health.

Today, he walks 20,000 steps a day and enjoys life as a full-time dad—something he thought was impossible just a year ago.

In this week’s podcast, Jop and I dive into the turning points of his recovery:

  • How he embraced small changes instead of chasing quick fixes.
  • The habits he built around sleep, nutrition, and movement.
  • Why focusing on health—not symptoms—made all the difference.
  • 🎧 Listen to Jop’s inspiring story

    Take care, and remember that recovery is possible—one small step at a time.
