Listen Later

In a compelling episode of "Conversations with Rich Bennett," co-hosted by Ronya Nassar, guest Lindsay Goff delves deep into her personal and professional experiences with stroke awareness. Lindsay's dedication to the cause was deeply personal, stemming from the traumatic experience of her stepdad's severe stroke. Transitioning from her initial career aspirations, Lindsay's firsthand experiences as an ER nurse equipped her with insights into the immediate interventions crucial for stroke patients. The conversation underscores that strokes aren't exclusive to the elderly; they can affect individuals across age groups. Lindsay, Rich, and Ronya explore the advancements in stroke diagnosis and treatments since the 1950s, emphasizing the significance of recognizing risk factors and the pivotal role of community education. Lindsay's mission is clear: to shift perceptions, enlighten the masses, and ultimately, save lives through informed action.
