Heidi's LemonAid Stand

Shownotes Transcript

Interview was done December 5, 2022!

I love meeting new people willing to let me in and share their “lemon to lemonade” experience!

This story is about Dan who at age 28 was leading a healthy, active life. Then he had to undergo emergency brain surgery. 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. Dan has survived two emergency brain surgeries, weeks in a coma, and months in a rehab hospital. What he found out along the way might surprise you: there is nothing like a brain injury to refocus the mind! Now, driven by a positive mindset, Dan wants to pay it forward by speaking and encouraging others. What message do you get from this interview?

ABOUT the LemonAid Stand: Heidi started hosting the LemonAid Stand live radio talk show, over 20 years ago, in 1999! It all came about when Heidi was dealing with thoughts of suicide, inadequacy, and dealing with infertility. She realized as she reached out to others and heard their stories, she would be uplifted and inspired no matter what she was going through. So this podcast has old "Original" shows from that time period. It also has "New" shows that are currently being recorded with new guests. And it has "Update" shows where Heidi reached out to original radio show guests to find out how the past 20 years have been!

Heidi is a motivational speaker and would love to speak at your event about how to elevate your happiness!

Theme song written and recorded by Heidi’s baby brother Shane!
