Dealing with the physical challenges you may face as the result of a head injury is one thing, grieving who you were before your injury is another. 

Today we talk to Madison Thacker who was a passionate soccer player in high school until her third concussion ended her career. Her injuries inspired her to chase a career in journalism in order to give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the struggles of injured athletes, especially those who have suffered concussions. We discuss what it’s like for brain-injury survivors to grieve the people we were before the injury, how we tend to take out our frustrations on those closest to us, and how to cope with our emotions while trying to come to terms with who we are now. We also talk about the challenges of accepting what’s happened in order to start telling our stories to others and the power of those stories, so tune in to hear Madison’s!
