Meet the first person to ever have their Ted Talk go viral! In this episode of Seriously Catherine, guest host Dympna Weil interviews Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor -- a Harvard-trained and published neuroscientist. Dr. Taylor survived a severe brain hemorrhage that cost her the ability to walk, talk, read, write, and recall her life. Her remarkable recovery changed the way doctors now treat brain injuries.

Dr. Taylor's memoir, My Stroke of Insight, spent 63 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list and is still routinely the #1 book in the category Stroke in the Amazon marketplace.

Hear what it actually feels like to have your brain shutdown while you're still living.
