What kind of more I could break down into one word: more love.
Imagine being fully aware but unable to move a muscle, except for your eyes. That's the reality Brisa Alfaro faced after suffering a pons stroke, which left her locked in her own body for over two months.

Her story is a testament to the human spirit's resilience and the power of positivity.
Brisa didn't let her condition define her. Instead, she embraced every tiny victory, practiced self-love, and used visualization techniques to aid her recovery. She also found solace in sharing her story, which became a therapeutic outlet. Host Bill Gasiamis guides the conversation, offering a compassionate space for Brisa to share her experiences and insights. Whether you're a stroke survivor, caregiver, or someone seeking inspiration, Brisa's journey will leave you uplifted and motivated.
Tune in to hear how focusing on the positive and celebrating small wins can make a world of difference in the face of adversity.
