In this episode, I’m joined by Seantae Jackson, speaker and co-founder of the Sandal Blue Foundation, who shares the life-changing story of the catastrophic car accident that reshaped her family’s world — and how that moment led to the creation of a nonprofit supporting survivors after severe crashes.We talk about:• Navigating medical trauma and long-term recovery• Parenting a child with a severe TBI and rediscovering hope• The healing power of community and nervous system regulation• Why asking “What can I do?” can transform the recovery journey• Support for caregivers and the unseen layers of traumaWe also pause for a grounding straw-breath exercise to help listeners regulate as the story unfolds.This episode is emotional, inspiring, and full of hard-earned wisdom. If you’ve ever felt alone in your healing, may this conversation help you look up and see that your island is closer to others than you think.Connect with Seantae at sandalbluefoundation.org or @seantaejacksonperspectives or [email protected] out more about Sarah's support community, the Befriend Your Body Community.
