Listen Later

In episode two of the Pink Medicine Podcast I catch up with the gorgeous Lauren Spear.

Lauren is a special needs teacher who two years ago had a workplace accident which resulted in her obtaining a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). It was through her early days in recovery that she created and wrote The Orange Butterfly Blog and has organised and curated many events and provided online support for others within our community living with a Traumatic Brain Injury.

In this Episode we discuss:

  • the day she had her accident
  • what her road to recovery has looked like
  • how and why she created The Orange Butterfly
  • 4 things everybody NEEDS to know about what life's like living with an invisible disability
  • whats inside her "tool box" for resilience
  • how meditation has changed her life and why you should do it too
  • why finding YOUR tribe is so important in life
  • whats to come for her future and the future of the Orange Butterfly
  • her advice for overcoming the obstacles life can throw at us
  • This was such a beautiful conversation, and I got soo much out of it and I know you will too!
