96. The Mental Game of Recovery with Daniel MacQueen - Brain Injury, Goal Setting, & Mindset

Taking three steps backwards and one step forward is something you may be familiar with as a brain injury survivor.
Today's guest Daniel MacQueen knows this process all too well. After an optometrist appointment to identify the cause of his persistent headaches was cut short, he was handed a sealed envelope and told to go directly to the hospital. What followed, was emergency brain surgery. On June 21, 2014, Dan's reality was shattered by a devastating brain hemorrhage. With no map to guide him on the grueling path to recovery, Dan had to rely on his grit, perseverance, and resilience to relearn everything he once knew: how to walk, talk and even smile.
In today's episode Dan shares how he overcame these difficult challenges through his many recovery hacks. Dan also takes the time to talk about his experiences and tips on managing the mental game of recovery. Lastly hear about the importance of making both short and long term goals as a survivor. Don't miss out on this very inspirational episode!
