Work Hard. Believe. Pass It On. - Gary Lewis' Interview - Part Two

from Beyond Stillness: Stories After Stroke · host Beyond Stillness: Stories After Stroke

"When we let each other in, we help each other." Gary knew this as a runner and a coach. A stroke in 2020 taught him what it really means. Gary's story is about connection — neighbors, coaches, roommates, therapists, and fellow survivors who showed up. Now Gary is the one showing up for others, sitting with fellow stroke survivors, and passing on exactly what was given to him.
