In this inspiring episode of the Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast, Dr. Geo welcomes Dr. Karen Wonders—founder of Maple Tree Cancer Alliance, PhD in Exercise Physiology, professor, and mom of seven!—to explore the transformative power of exercise for cancer patients.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why exercise is medicine during and after cancer treatment
• How Karen built a global nonprofit supporting 20,000+ cancer patients through tailored movement
• The science behind exercise oncology and how it improves quality of life, strength, and survival
• How to overcome fear and fatigue to get moving—even on the hardest days
• The real-life story that inspired Maple Tree and how it's helping patients around the world
• Tips for staying consistent, motivated, and empowered through movement

Karen shares powerful insights on meeting patients where they are—whether in chemo, remission, or simply too exhausted to move—and creating custom exercise plans that work with the body's challenges. She also reveals how to access Maple Tree On Demand, an affordable, cancer-specific fitness program you can do at home.

This conversation is not just about cancer—it's about resilience, family, and thriving in the face of adversity. Whether you're a patient, caregiver, or health enthusiast, this episode will move you.
