Founder and CEO at Outside Interactive Inc.

My friend, 7-time World Champion athlete Rebecca Rusch, is opening up about her life-changing journey in a new podcast series, "Brain Storm". After suffering a "mild" concussion in a bike accident, Rebecca's world was turned upside down. "Brain Storm" follows Rebecca's journey to heal her brain and return to her active life - a goal that has eluded her for nearly 3 years. Through interviews with leading experts, the series explores the science, understanding, and treatment of concussion and persistent post-concussive symptoms. This is a must-listen for anyone who has experienced a concussion or knows someone who has. The statistics are alarming – nearly 30% of adults report having a concussion, and almost half experience long-term symptoms. It's time to break the silence and get informed!

Agree .Robin Thurston! I myself had a serious concussion from a MTB crash just over a year ago, and the recovery has been more complex than I would have imagined. So much of Rebecca's story resonated with me.
