Brain injury survivors and their families often feel isolated and disconnected from others while navigating the challenges of a “new normal”. If you can relate, you’re not alone - and we are here to encourage you to know there is hope.
In this episode, Cristabelle sits down with Jasmine Balignasay-Chavez, managing director of Hope Survives, to discuss the profound impact of brain injuries, the isolation many survivors face, and the transformative power of connection. Jasmine shares her personal journey through brain injury, and some of her own experiences with isolation and the importance of knowing you’re not alone. We explore the importance of support groups, finding purpose in helping others, and choosing hope as an active part of healing.
Whether you’re a survivor, caregiver, or simply seeking inspiration, this podcast reminds you that recovery is possible and you are never alone. Let’s heal together: one step at a time.
