108. Combating Isolation in Concussion Recovery | Eliana Bloomfield - Community Connection & Storytelling

The Post Concussion Podcast - Life After A Brain Injury

What happens when a concussion takes away more than just your physical comfort, but also severs ties with your community? You'll find out in our enlightening conversation with Eliana Bloomfield, the founder of Concussion Box. Eliana brings firsthand insights into this misunderstood area.
As we peel back the layers of concussion complexities, we delve into the often unseen isolation that accompanies this condition. Conversations, shared experiences, and the simple pleasure of being in company are often stripped away, leaving an overwhelming sense of solitude.
The last leg of our journey takes us through Eliana's inspiring story of creating Concussion Box. You'll hear about their unique offerings, including audio stories from fellow survivors and a concussion care package. Eliana also shares the empowering process of sharing your concussion story and how it can be a path to healing for both the storyteller and the listener. So, join us for a conversation that not only educates but also connects those on a post-concussion journey.
