Dr. Lily Jimenez, Neurologic Physical Therapist, Neuropreneur, and host of the Neuro PT Made Easy Podcast, we discuss the importance of massive imperect action in order to grow online as healthcare creator. Dr. Jimenez joins us to break down the power of personal branding in healthcare, showing clinicians how to connect authentically with patients, build trust, and share their voice beyond the clinic. This conversation blends evidence, purpose, and strategy to help clinicians better serve the concussion population. We review the most common myths in concussion care and why it’s time to rethink outdated practices, why concussions are both central and peripheral problems, why grading concussions is no longer valid, and how clinicians can close knowledge gaps in their approach. This episode is for clinicians, educators, and advocates who want to meet their patients where they are and build trust through action, empathy, and education.
