Sometimes in life things happen that appear to be your worst nightmare. And it can happen when we least expect. We never see it coming. We may believe we are on top of the world. But what happens when your world as you knew it comes crashing down in an instant?
With life, sometimes you win. Sometimes you learn. And sometimes-- you do both.
And ironically the winning victory can be discovered in a place you least expect it. That is the story of Ted W. Baxter. Ted was an auditor and management consultant at Price Waterhouse. He passed all four parts of the CPA exam in one take, and built a financial services consulting practice in Tokyo for Price Waterhouse, becoming partner in record time. After working in the Asia-Pacific for Price Waterhouse and Credit Suisse First Boston, he became a managing director at Citadel LLC, a premiere hedge fund and global financial institution. He retired after twenty-two years in the financial industry. In April 2005, he experienced a massive ischemic stroke and aphasia. He now serves as an advocate, author and speaker on strokes, aphasia, inspiration and motivation. He volunteers at health institutions, is involved in philanthropic causes, and lives in Newport Beach. He is the author of: Relentless: How A Maassive Stoke Changed My Life For the Better.
An inspiring show to be shared with everyone as Ted reveals his journey, and empowers others with advice on how to recognize and avoid conditions for a stroke.
