Description

Kermit claims it's not easy being green. I challenge him to try being purple for a minute. "Purple People" live with epilepsy—they either have the neurological disorder themselves, or they love somebody who does. This is our second epilepsy focussed episode, which includes a ten question quiz to test your epilepsy knowledge. Our hope is that by sharing what we're learning, we can help get people talking, thinking and caring about epilepsy. Our guest Lisa Gray joins us to share her personal connection to epilepsy and talks about her role at ⁠epilepsy.ca⁠.

Thank you Epilepsy Canada for partnering with us for this very special episode in honour of Epilepsy Awareness Month. 💜
