This week on Beyond Stillness: Stories After Stroke, we welcome guest Todd Berreth who shares his story of perseverance, determination, and grit.  He takes us through the challenges of rebuilding speech, the resilience required to reclaim his passions, and the deep lessons he’s learned along the way.  Join me as we dive into his story that proves that perseverance isn’t just about surviving, but about finding new ways to thrive. 

This episode is contributed by Abbe Simon, speech language pathologist, integrative health coach, and yoga teacher.  Abbe‘s private practice , iCommunicare, offers individuals impacted by a stroke ways to regain communication and connection.
