Today is the start of World Stroke Month, celebrated throughout the month of May. In this episode we are going to share a discussion we had with Carolyn Brown, Founder of Stroke OT and Marina Borukhovich of YourCoach at the Rehab Tech Summit on March 3rd. Watch full episode on our YouTube ChannelThis past week there was news that Noom inc, a weight loss app will be laying off a quarter of their health coaches. While this is devastating for those coaching losing a job, it highlights just what Noom was missing - personalization. Mike will speak to some of his thoughts on what else led to this decision for Noom, and what it means for health coaching to work in stroke rehab.We are excited to start Season 4 soon and share more about what it means for us to be apart of the Health Podcast Network.For more information about joining our show or advertising with us visit: https://enable4us.comSupport the showSupport Our Show!

Season 3 Episode 6 -On The Road!Before we get to our "Stroke in the News" this week we would be remiss not to pause and reflect that this episode is being recorded asynchronously amidst the backdrop of war in Ukraine. As we all finally sense an end to the COVID-19 crisis, we find ourselves in the midst of another one, and the extent of which is still unclear. It is hard to put into words what it means to watch the invasion of a sovereign nation, and honestly we’ve all struggled with the immediate human costs and certainly more lives will be senselessly lost. Also realizing the potential implications of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we have found hope in the strength of the Ukrainian people and we stand with them in support of democracy. In the news...Boston Accents? Give us a review if you like the pure content of this podcast, but don't pick on Bostonians (and David) please if you find Boston accents "irritating"- this was in the news this week...Resources mentioned in this episode:ISC Stroke Connection- Post Acute Rehab After Stroke-Getting it Right and why I believe they should have worked harder to offer this free for survivors.

She has held administrative roles in clinic management and as a department director.

In addition to adopting a new cat who you’ll meet briefly in this episode, Lauren is also a new mom and home owner. In her spare time (LOL!), Lauren co-founded the Rehab Tech Summit, an online conference and community that aims to bring together industry professionals and rehabilitation clinicians, researchers and entrepreneurs to share information and ideas in the rehabilitation technology space.

Welcome to Season 3 Episode 3 of the Know Stroke Podcast!We were delighted to bring back an old friend, intro voice of the podcast, and stroke thriver, Caroline Goggin. Caroline shared her story with us as our inaugural guest on Season 1 Episode 2, if you haven't listened to that interview you can go back and listen here. In that episode Caroline gave credit to her husband, Travis, for saving her life. He recognized the symptoms and acted FAST! It has been a long road ever since, and we’re humbled that after hearing Caroline's side of the story in season 1, we now got to hear from Travis what those early days were like as a caregiver.One adjective we heard a lot from Travis during this conversation was 'hopeless'. Hopelessness is a feeling many caregivers often go through when they have a loved one who suffered a stroke. Travis does an exceptional job of walking us through his thoughts, and what has changed from the day he was in the hospital at Carolines bedside to today - preparing for the Boston Marathon. Returning to running is something near and dear to our co-host David's road to recovery who has now completed two Boston Marathons since his stroke. David and Caroline now have connected as part of their stroke recovery journey a common link with Tedy's Team, the non-profit launched by New England's own Tedy Bruschi. Since his stroke Tedy and his wife Heidi been on a mission to advance awareness and research for stroke. Caroline and Travis will be running as part of Tedy's Team, and along with training over 500 miles for the 26.2 mile run they aim to raise $18,000 to advance stroke research.This conversation was a lot of fun, and as expected Caroline and Travis shared many gems. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.You can watch this episode on our YouTube Channel as wellFor information on how to donate please visit their Tedy's Team Fundraising Page Follow Caroline on Twitter @CarolineGogginFollow Travis on Twitter @tgeldridConnect with Team EnableUs and the Know Stroke Podcast Hosts:https://www.enable4us.comhttps://twitter.com/Enable__Ushttps://www.instagram.com/enable.us/As always, thank you for your support-please give us a like, follow and review our show.

Welcome back to Season 3 of the Know Stroke Podcast!We hope everyone had a relaxing holiday season and had time to catch up with family and friends. If you didn't catch our bonus episode released before the new year you should go back and check it out - https://www.buzzsprout.com/1751132/9804997 In that bonus episode David and I spoke to some of our personal goals this year and tee'd up a theme that we'll be speaking to a lot during Season 3 - Goal setting and accountability. We've heard from many guests over the first 2 seasons the importance of accountability and 1-1 support post stroke. The role of a Health Coach has been used in other disease management programs effectively, and we see this role having a potential to support the stroke population. A Health Coach working as part of the care team can provide that extra layer of 1:1 support and accountability - saving Stroke Nurse Navigators and clinicians time. To kick off Season 3 David and I were honored to sit down with Marina Borukhovich, CEO of YourCoach Health to discuss the Health Coaching Revolution she and her team are spear-heading. Marina is a transformative tech leader, an exemplar of the power of health coaching, a breast cancer superhero, and a passion-driven CEO. After moving to Amsterdam and receiving her breast cancer diagnosis, her mission became to help other women feel in control and beautiful. Shortly after her diagnosis, she received her health coaching certification, which guided her to discover an opportunity to innovate in the increasingly important field of health coaching. She founded YourCoach.Health as a practice management platform and interface for all things health coaching, to kickstart the Health Coaching Revolution. It’s Marina’s mission to bring the power of health coaching to as many people as possible. Out of the office, Marina enjoys boxing, wife-ing, mom-ing and catering to Bentley, her French bulldog and Chief Emotional Support Officer.YourCoach.Health is your virtual home for all things health and wellness coaching. Built for coaches, by a health coach, it’s a practice management platform and one-stop-solution for cultivating coaching and client relationships and achieving real and lasting health outcomes. https://yourcoach.healthWatch this episode on our YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/rh8ECHUYwMAIf you are enjoying our podcast please help us grow by sharing, rating, and most helpful, please write us a quick review on your favorite podcast player!

In our last episode of Season 2 we welcome Kate Skeels, Stroke Advance Practice Nurse at Tufts Medical Center to the show. We picked the great discussion right up where we left off with her Tufts colleague Dr. Lester Leung from our previous episode. We learned what brought Kate from her western New York roots with her family to Boston and where she fell in love with the stroke patient population, met “baby” Lester and began growing the program at Tufts together “like 2 peas in a pod”. Curious? Listen to Kate tell the whole story in her interview!Including- How the addition of Kate to the Tuft’s Team provides dual leadership and drives better outcomes for patients while allowing for the shared perspectives of Nurse Practitioner (NP) and Physician (MD) team model. This discussion through Kate’s NP lens was fascinating. You’ll learn about different advanced level NP providers and how Kate’e training opens her role up as an advanced practitioner, and how NPs deliver care similar to how quarterbacks plan, prepare and execute plays in the NFL! Well, this was Mike and I offering analysis of Kate’s role in our show intro after learning all she does every day! In fact, we decided to give her the title of the Tom Brady of the Tufts Comprehensive Stroke Center (even though she still is a Buffalo Bills fan, sorry Patriots Nation!)Carrying the team discussion into a deeper dive of the SAYA Program and Stroke Clinic with Kate we learned how they manage patients at their high risk stroke clinic, offer telehealth, group and in person visits to provide longitudinal stroke care support as “care is needed at different points in a season of stroke”. Love this! Also we learn how they go the extra mile at Tufts to manage and personalize care including how the team often has a “discharge time out” (yes, another football reference, how fitting!) to stop, regroup and build a plan for the patient that offers help around the focus of attention needed when discharge weaknesses are discovered. You’ll also learn about the great educational efforts Kate and her team are involved with through their Annual Tufts Stroke Symposium to share stroke education with other providers. Finally, Kate’s magic wand answer, well let’s just say she scored a touchdown on this one with Mike and I ! Give it a listen as part of your own stroke game plan!As always, "in the News” segment- Mike and I discussed the climbing rates of high blood pressure since the start of the pandemic and with it increased stroke risks. Here’s that article link.You’ll also want to watch this interview on YouTube just to see where in the world my co-host Mike was when we recorded this episode!
