My Why Revolution founders Jessie Mann and Kristen Traverse sit down for their first podcast together. In order to share stories of how other people have found strength through vulnerability Kristen and Jessie believe they have to step outside of their comfort zone. In this special podcast, Jessie interviews Kristen on what it was like to experience a stroke at the age of 31. The stroke took away Kristen's ability to speak and it was through regaining that skill that she learned that the stroke gave her a whole new voice she didn't know she had.
