Hello! Thank you for stopping by! This is launch week for Concussion: There IS Hope, a podcast bringing awe and respect for concussion survivors and their families. Whether you’ve had a concussion or not, there are insidious dangers associated with concussions that all people need to know. Did you know a second concussion on top of a first can cause immediate death? It’s this kind of information you deserve to have; every family needs to know what I’ll be sharing in the episodes to come. Concussions are everyone’s business, and that’s why I’m launching this podcast. I want everyone to stay safer than I have, suffering through my 10 concussions.

For this episode’s sneak peek, we peer into the life of a fascinating woman. Rebecca Connolly, M.S., works in the world of sports medicine and orthopedics helping individuals recover from serious injuries. Yet, she not only knows recovery from a professional point of view, she knows traumatic pain personally. During her final semester of graduate school, she sustained a head injury that took months to recover, and it left her with a permanent loss of smell. But she would not be defeated! She pushed through. Now she helps others therapeutically in sports medicine and orthopedics. And when she’s not helping someone recover from serious injuries, she is writing voraciously period and contemporary romances, all the while devouring chocolate. She is a chocolate connoisseur. In this episode, she shares with us the seriousness of her concussion, the difficult symptoms she experienced, and how she got through.
