Have you ever wondered how significant life-changing experiences reshape our sense of purpose? After a life-changing brain injury, Chandani Khan rebuilt her world through intentionality, acceptance and an unshakeable growth mindset. She shares how she navigated identity loss, moved from a deeply inward healing journey to outward service and now leads change in concussion care through patient-centred education and community. Chandani explores limiting beliefs, the idea of before, current and new selves, and the beauty of creating purpose from within. This powerful conversation focuses on resilience, identity and limitless potential.
KEY TAKEAWAY
"Sometimes you have to lose who you thought you were to discover who you truly are right now."
ABOUT THE GUEST – CHAANDANI KHAN
Chaandani Khan is the founder of Return to Life, a specialized practice that helps medical and allied health practitioners integrate a concussion-informed approach into services. She brings a wealth of knowledge gained through experience plus research, and is focused on leading systemic change in the delivery of concussion care. Six years ago a brain injury derailed Chaandani's life, which left her navigating PPCS (persistent post-concussive symptoms) and an overwhelming amount of loss. Preparing a cup of tea, washing clothes and sending a single email became monumental challenges and her familiar, fast-paced lifestyle appeared impossibly far out of reach. Attending years of recovery appointments and ingraining herself in the concussion recovery space allowed her to identify key gaps in service and systems, and the demand for a new path forward.
