In this episode, I sit down with fellow Speech-Language Pathologist Judith Koebli to share her powerful and deeply personal story as a concussion survivor. Judith opens up about her injury, the mistreatment and miscare she experienced throughout her recovery, and the lasting impact it has had on her life and work. We discuss the symptoms she continues to navigate today, the emotional and physical challenges of being unheard as a patient, and the resilience required to keep moving forward. Judith also shares practical tools and strategies that have supported her healing journey, offering insight, validation, and hope for clinicians, survivors, and caregivers alike.
