When Brain Injury Changes Who You Are: Grief, Identity & Finding Purpose Again | E75 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A brain injury can change far more than memory, balance, headaches, or cognition. It can change your career, your relationships, your independence—and sometimes your entire sense of who you are. In this episode of Life After Impact, I sit down with Jamie Arber, a licensed professional counselor, Certified Brain Injury Specialist, brain injury survivor, and Executive Director of the Supported Living Group in Connecticut, to explore a part of brain injury recovery that doesn't receive nearly en...
The Sensitive Nervous System: Rethinking How We Treat Complex Patients with Dr. David Traster | E74 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have we become so focused on what a treatment can do that we've stopped asking who it should—and shouldn't—be used on?

In this episode of Life After Impact, I sit down with neurology nurse practitioner and traumatic brain injury specialist Mandi Swanson, who spent nearly two years recovering from her own TBI after a motor vehicle accident. Mandi went from running half-marathons and practicing neurology to struggling with severe post-traumatic headaches, brain fog, memory loss, balance problem...
Concussion and Loss of Smell: Why This Sense Matters More Than You Think | E71 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Loss of smell after concussion may be more important than most people realize. Changes in smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch can occur after concussion and traumatic brain injury (TBI), yet sensory loss—especially olfactory dysfunction—is often overlooked during concussion evaluation and recovery. In this episode of Life After Impact, Dr. Ayla Wolf sits down with neuroscientist Dr. Michael Leon and Super Senses founder Datar Sahi to explore the connection between the sense of smell, bra...
