Founding BestGuessistan

from Experiencing My Brain · host Daniel Avesar PhD

Wendy Lurrie is a brain injury survivor, she started a podcast called BestGuessistan. When I began listening to her podcast, her recordings ,and her energy captured some of the feelings I remember having like the WTF feeling about what had happened to my internal me plus the feeling that no one who is supposed to help really gets what I am dealing with. I appreciate her  work to record these issues that are similar but different concepts, feelings, and ideas to document this invisible epidemic. https://www.bestguessistan.com/Wendy created BestGuessistan, as a place where our brain injury needs are met and accommodations are provided, without explanation. She describes many aspects to this land that fit brain injury very well if you live with a brain injury these ideas ring true.BestGuessistan also refers to the idea that with brain injury everything becomes a best guess of what got injured, and ways to improve or even try to manage what you are dealing with . There are many "similar but different" aspects of brain injury we discuss across this recording.- - -Experiencing My Brain is a podcast devoted to detailed discussions with brain injury survivors about their experiences, challenges, and the ways they have found to navigate their lives. These stories are important in helping the non-brain-injured world better understand the problems that come with brain injury.
