You Can't Mess up your own story! If your a survivor sharing your story & nervous

Al’oh, shallo — your Neuro Mermaid here, aka your Stroke Support Siren 💙✨
With my big speech at the Beyond the Brain Brain Injury Conference coming up, I’ve been reflecting on what it reallymeans to share your story as a brain injury or stroke survivor.

In this episode, I dive deep into: 🧠 The healing power of storytelling after brain trauma
💬 Why it’s okay if you stumble, forget, or cry while sharing your journey
🧅 My favorite metaphor: your story is like an onion (yes, Shrek-style)
🎤 How going live weekly with fellow survivors has helped us process, connect, and thrive
🫶 Why there’s no wrong way to tell your truth — and how sharing can literally save lives

Whether you’re neurodivergent, healing from a traumatic brain injury, navigating aphasia, or just trying to find your voice again — I see you. You are not alone. And you’re never “too messy” or “too late” to start telling your story.

💌 If you’ve ever said “I don’t think I could do that” — this one’s for you.
DM me your questions, share what part resonated most, or just say Shello mermaid 🧜‍♀️💕
