This episode originally aired June 24, 2021! Due to being repeatedly told that I should be lucky that "I am still here" or that "It could be worse" this seemed very fitting for today!

Today's guest Tianna Arentz experienced her first concussion in a snowmobile accident when she was just 15, knocking her unconscious. She then suffered a second concussion in a car accident on her way to vision therapy and since then, she has experienced approximately 13 more concussions with her most recent occurring just a few months ago. She joins us to share her story of the many challenges she has faced and continues to face as a result of her injuries. Tuning in you’ll hear about the symptoms she’s experienced, how she has handled the lack of support from friends, classmates, teachers, and family, and the accommodations she has had to fight for to complete her studies. To find out which treatments she finds most helpful, tips for handling PTSD, the importance of seeing the right therapist, and much more, tune in today!
