In this heartfelt episode of Get Obsessed, host Julie Lokun sits down with Nancy Spano, the inspiring author of Stroke of Love. Nancy shares the day her life changed forever when she suffered a massive stroke at age 46 and the profound near-death experience that followed.

Nancy’s story is raw, emotional, and filled with hope. She takes listeners through the moments leading up to her stroke, describing the changes in her vision, behavior, and thinking that she didn’t realize were warning signs. She also opens up about her remarkable recovery and the lessons she learned about resilience, faith, and finding purpose in the aftermath.

In this episode, you’ll hear:
• The subtle symptoms Nancy noticed before her stroke and how she nearly ignored them
• What her near-death experience felt like and the spiritual moment that brought her back
• How her husband and family supported her through recovery
• The life lessons that gave her a renewed sense of purpose and gratitude

Nancy’s experience is a reminder that strokes can happen at any age and that early recognition saves lives.

Symptoms Nancy experienced include:
• Vision loss on one side
• Sudden irritability and mood changes
• Confusion and short-term memory loss
• Trouble completing simple tasks
• Weakness or paralysis on one side of the body
• Panic attacks and disorientation

Her stroke was linked to high blood pressure worsened by medication, something she had not been warned to monitor. Now, Nancy is dedicated to raising awareness so others can recognize early warning signs and take quick action.

If you or someone you know experiences sudden numbness, confusion, slurred speech, vision loss, or loss of balance, call 911 immediately. Time is critical.

Nancy Spano is a stroke and cancer survivor, wife, mother, and advocate who turned her near-death experience into a message of hope. Her book, Stroke of Love, tells her story of survival, healing, and the strength of the human spirit.
