LoveYourBrain on Care, Community, & Recovery from TBIs

Traumatic brain injuries are an unfortunate reality of many outdoor sports, and after professional snowboarder Kevin Pearce suffered one that derailed his career, Kevin founded LoveYourBrain, along with his brother Adam, to provide resources and support for others going through their own journey of recovery. And so we sat down with Adam to talk about everything that LoveYourBrain does, the conversations around TBIs in the action sports world, and a whole lot more  — including their fundraising raffle where you can win a Revel Rail29 or Rover.TOPICS & TIMES:LoveYourBrain history & Kevin’s injury (1:57)The LoveYourBrain mission (7:19)Fostering community (9:31)TBI recovery & making peace with a new normal (12:35)Changing the perception of TBIs (17:58)Improving conversations about TBIs in the action sports world (20:55)Prevention education (23:20)Supporting someone recovering from a TBI (27:04)RELATED LINKS:Introducing: CRAFTEDIntroducing: Open MicBecome a Blister MemberBlister LabsThis Week’s Gear GiveawayBlister Mountain Bike Buyer’s GuideOUR OTHER PODCASTSOff The CouchGEAR:30Blister PodcastCRAFTED Hosted on Acast.
