Not everyone who lives with post concussion syndrome has a history of sports injuries, and today's guest knows all too well how easily you can get concussed from everyday accidents. This week, we speak with Jennifer Wimer, whose experience as a healthcare worker and love for the outdoors have informed her journey with PCS when it comes to managing her symptoms and maintaining her physical and mental health after multiple concussions. We discuss coping with difficult, long-lasting symptoms. Jennifer also shares how she's been able to overcome the anger she had formed for not putting herself at risk and getting injured anyways. Listeners also hear how Jennifer has managed parenting with PCS and what she has learned from communicating her symptoms to young children. Join us today for an honest conversation around anxiety, parenting, and the power of therapy!
