Summary: Embracing Change and Overcoming Plateaus in Recovery

Hey there! Are you struggling to overcome plateaus in your life? Whether it's in your recovery process or just trying to reach your goals, it's important to ask yourself if you need a break or an outside opinion. In this episode, I talked about my own journey as a stroke survivor and how I had to confront myself to make progress. Remember, you are in charge of your own recovery and it's essential to be honest with yourself to make progress. Let go of old habits and embrace new ones to reach your goals. Teamwork and safety are crucial, and regular self-assessment is vital for growth and improvement.

Here are three key takeaways from the episode that can help you move forward in your recovery:

1. Take advantage of your insurance - I believe it's important to utilize your insurance to the fullest if you pay for it.

2. Overcoming plateaus -  Provide valuable insight on how to navigate different stages and overcome plateaus which are necessary but can be difficult. They suggest asking hard questions to assess where you need to put more effort into your recovery.

3. Embrace the "new you" - I encourage individuals to stick with their goals and be honest with themselves when facing a plateau in their recovery. They stress the importance of utilizing the tools available and being honest with oneself to make progress.

We also discuss May being Stroke Awareness Month and provide useful information on the acronym Be Fast, which can help individuals remember what to do when it comes to stroke. We hope this episode will inspire you to make positive changes in your life and reassure you that you are not alone in your recovery journey. Stay tuned for more inspiring and informative episodes t
