In October 2025, Mandy van der Put fell in her barn. This resulted in a skull fracture, a serious brain injury, a hospital stay, and months of recovery. But today, she’s back to her old self.

When your body no longer functions, and you have to hand over your position as leader of the organization you built entirely on your own to someone else.
