About William PersonWilliam Person is a former nine-year Team USA Bobsled athlete whose career left him battling the devastating effects of CTE. At his lowest point, he could barely get up off the floor, lost in confusion, depression, and deteriorating brain. Hope came when he discovered Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, which restored clarity in his thinking, color to his vision, and purpose to his life. Today, William is on a mission to raise awareness of brain damage in sports, the importance of protecting and healing the brain, and he’s on a mission to open a nonprofit CTE Recovery Center to help athletes and veterans heal at no cost to them.William’s GoFundMe is: https://gofund.me/93ff9c6e  To raise funds to purchase a medical grade hyperbaric oxygen chamber for a free CTE Recovery Center for athletes, military veterans, and civilians battling CTE like symptoms. By removing the burden of cost, William hopes to give quality of life back to as many people as possible, but he needs help to do it. Links to William’s Social Media: @onemanwithachamber Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/one.man.with.a.chamber.hbot?mibextid=wwXIfr&mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://www.facebook.com/william.person.792233 LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/william-person-4072b417/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/willp1234567?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr YouTubehttps://youtube.com/@braininjurysurvival?si=KfTK-iFXlhLORgQC TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@hyperbarichealing?_t=ZT-8zD0dNeEvPi&_r=1_Dana’s Links:⁠⁠⁠https://www.painfreeathletepodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠10 Day Journaling Journey⁠⁠⁠Podcast Disclaimer:The Pain-Free Podcast is presented solely for general information, education, and entertainment purposes.
