What the EF

Guess Who's Back at the News Desk with Sarah Carlson


Listen Later

She left her job as a newscaster because of epilepsy—and now she’s back at the same anchor desk. In this episode, Sarah Carlson talks about pretending she didn’t miss the job (she did), how she seized the opportunity to get back in, and the joy of being four years seizure free...while knowing her brain is still unpredictable.

We also get into survivor’s guilt, pressure to be perfect with sleep, and whether she’d be anchoring if she were still seizing.

Big thanks to our community partners Epilepsy Foundation of America and the Danny Did Foundation as well as sponsors Neurelis and SK life science!
