The Concussion Coach

54. Acceptance, Enlightenment, & Stroke Recovery: An Interview with Melinda Davis


Listen Later

Melinda Davis is a stay-at-home mom, end-of-life doula, poet and photographer who experienced a stroke on the right side of her brain. While this podcast is generally focused on concussions specifically, I felt that Melinda's story and experience with brain injury was surprisingly similar in many ways to what people with concussions experience, and the success of her treatment at CognitiveFX is inspiring and worth sharing.


In this conversation we mentioned some content that we would link in the show notes:

*Jill Bolte Taylor's TED Talk: "My Stroke of Insight" https://youtu.be/UyyjU8fzEYU?si=LMKsSjkzfdYaNBSb

*The Concussion Coach Podcast episode #37 with Dr. Mark Allen: "Post Concussion Syndrome, Dysautonomia, & Intervals" https://youtu.be/pnkIWUWtLWk

*CognitiveFX clinic in Provo, UT: www.cognitivefxusa.com
