During this holiday week, Drs. Daniel Correa and Audrey Nath look back on 2022 and share clips from episodes that highlight the importance of elevating the voices of individuals whose lives have been impacted by neurologic conditions. Dr. Nath first shares a conversation she had with actor RJ Mitte who discusses his journey in finding confidence despite the bullying he endured in childhood as someone with cerebral palsy. Dr. Correa brings back a conversation with Greg O’Brien, a journalist diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, who shares how navigating the holidays can be especially trying while living with a neurologic condition. We hear more clips from past episodes including author/podcaster Nora McInerny, former NBA player Brian Grant, and more. Happy holidays (Felices fiestas) to you and yours!
