In episode 76 of the Survivor Science podcast, I dig into one of the most common questions I hear from stroke survivors: how do you start a podcast or livestream to share your journey? Whether you’re a stroke survivor, a caregiver, or just someone curious about content creation, this episode offers a practical look at what it takes to get started. I share insights from my experience as a podcaster, lessons learned from the Survivor Science Creator Meetups, and tips on how to approach podcasting or livestreaming, especially when you're balancing recovery with creativity.

We talk about everything from choosing a topic to picking the right tools and finding your voice. I reflect on how podcasting has helped me with my own recovery, including improving my speech and sharing my story in a way that connects with others. If you’ve ever thought about creating content, this episode will give you the motivation and practical advice you need to take that first step. Let’s explore what it means to share your story and build community in a way that’s meaningful and sustainable.

Welcome to 2025 and the first episode of the year! In this episode, I’m diving into the themes of responsibility and mindset in stroke recovery, inspired by Bill Gasiamis’s book, Stroke: The Best Thing That Happened to Me. One of the key takeaways I explore is the importance of avoiding rigid timelines in recovery to minimize frustration and disappointment. I also share my thoughts on how taking responsibility—while not blaming yourself—can be a powerful way to regain control and stay focused on progress.

I reflect on my own recovery journey, from managing expectations to setting goals that are flexible yet intentional. Recovery is different for every stroke survivor, but one constant is the need to lead your own path forward while using the resources and support systems available to you. This episode is packed with insights from Bill’s book, as well as my personal experiences navigating setbacks, lessons learned, and how I’ve applied these ideas to my life.

If you’re a stroke survivor, caregiver, or someone supporting a loved one, this episode will resonate with you. Let’s start the year strong, focused, and ready to tackle what’s ahead together.
