Suppose you know of or have personal experience with stroke, head injury, Parkinson's disease, Primary progressive aphasia, or other neurological events, then keep listening. This podcast is for you. You are not alone.

I'm Genevieve Richardson. I'm the owner and chief bottle washer at LIFE Speech Pathology and LIFE Aphasia Academy. It is my calling to serve the spouses, families, and persons with aphasia. I will be your tour guide on this journey. Learn from others who walk daily in your shoes each week; we'll tackle a different topic and tie it all into stroke recovery.
