Whole Again: A Fresh Approach to Mindfulness and Resilience Through Kintsugi Wisdom

#274 | What Western Medicine Doesn’t Teach You About Recovering From TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and Resilience with Adam Pearce


Listen Later

Is “getting back to normal” after trauma really the goal—or is it time to rethink what healing actually means?

In this episode, you’ll meet Adam Pearce, co-founder of LoveYourBrain, whose deeply personal story began when his brother sustained a traumatic brain injury just before the Olympics. What followed wasn’t just physical recovery—it was a profound exploration of acceptance, resilience, and the power of connection. Whether you're navigating recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this conversation redefines what healing looks like.

  • Discover why healing isn’t about going back—it's about who you're becoming.
  • Learn why acceptance isn’t a one-time act but a lifelong mindset.
  • Explore how community, mindfulness, and resilience practices can accelerate emotional and neurological recovery.

Take a deep breath and discover how Adam and the LoveYourBrain community are helping people heal with hope, connection, and strength—without doing it alone.
