Finding Light: Community and Courage for TBI Wives | Ep. 46

from The Real Lives of TBI Wives · host Erika Brouillette

Ep. 46 | Host Erika Brouillette shares her experience of facing a life-or-death decision, then becoming an overnight caretaker, provider, and single parent to three boys while managing specialists, therapies, insurance, and daily care tasks like feeding tubes, medications, and hygiene. Overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure of next steps, she held onto a belief she could help others and began learning how to reclaim her life over years of struggle. Because she couldn’t find the support she needed, she created Reclaim, a community for TBI wives focused on reconnecting with self and higher power, rebuilding boundaries and workable systems, and reclaiming identity and needs while being supported monthly without judgment.   Join the Reclaim community!
