This is the comment I left on Angie's FB post: It was AWESOME!!! I kept rewinding to re-listen to certain parts (cuz my brain needs repetition in order to grasp most WOW moments - like "ooh, that was good, i gotta hear it again!"🤓)!!!
Thanks to you and Dr. Seles for bringing awareness to all!!! I know I never heard of aphasia until I was told I had it after my stroke, and I was 41 at the time!!! That's not "old " but that's a lifetime to some, and to not have even heard of it in all those yea... more

As a black neuro-nerd Speech-Language Pathologist, and someone who is very passionate about the Aphasia population, I absolutely love this podcast. I find myself taking mental notes of things I can say to encourage my clients, laughing at their humor and jotting down resources that they share.
This podcast is authentic and it feels like Dr. Seles and Angie can connect to their listeners through the speakers.
Can’t wait to listen to more.
So happy I’m a Brain Friend!

The episode on neuroplasticity translates this unpronounceable scientific concept into simple, everyday terms with examples from real life. It lays out a blueprint for aphasia recovery that everyone can relate to. Plus - it’s a fun conversation - only Angie and Dr. Seles could do that!
