Bright Minds: A Campaign to Empower the Next Generation Against Stroke
In 2006, I experienced a life-altering stroke. As a father, nutritionist, and physical therapist, I faced both personal and professional crossroads. What challenged me most in the aftermath wasn’t just my own recovery—it was trying to explain what had happened to me in a non threatening way to my young children who were all under 8 years old at the time of my stroke.
I quickly discovered that stroke education for kids was virtually nonexistent, and the materials that did exist were either too clinical or too frightening for young minds to digest.
That moment sparked the idea that would later evolve into several iterations of my Bright Minds Campaign. I’ll cover this program in this episode.
