What if everything you thought you knew about concussion was wrong?

Presented by Momentous and hosted by Selene Yeager, "Brain Storm" is a podcast series that follows seven-time world champion adventure athlete Rebecca Rusch after a violent bike wreck leaves her with a "mild" concussion that turns her world upside down in May 2022.

Rebecca takes us through her journey to heal her brain and fully return to her demanding, athletic life, a goal that still eludes her almost three years after the crash. You'll also hear interviews with leading experts on the science, understanding, and treatment of concussions and persistent post-concussive symptoms.

 

Nearly 30 percent of adults report having a concussion in their lifetime. Almost half of them report long-term symptoms. Yet quality, informed care is still hard to come by, with millions following outdated, potentially harmful advice and spending weeks, months, or even years searching the web in hopes of one day feeling like themselves again.

 

This series is for those people, and for anyone with a brain.
