About this listen

In this episode of Meet a Stranger, Matt Haze sits down with a man whose life took a heartbreaking turn when he lost his wife to ovarian cancer at just 36 years old. What began as an Airbnb stay in Ireland turned into a deeply moving conversation about love, loss, and resilience. Despite his grief, he channeled his pain into purpose by creating the Doolin Motorcycle Festival, a charity event that has raised hundreds of thousands of euros for cancer support. This powerful story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the impact of living for those we've lost.
