    Right place, right time for stroke survivor and nonprofit leader Flannery O'Neil

    Public health professional Flannery O'Neil suffered a stroke at 34 years old. She never saw it coming, but today she's almost grateful it happened.
    Now, as a nonprofit leader, she wants to make sure other young stroke victims have the same loving support she found during her recovery. It's the power of an "advocacy network" and it can make all the difference.
    Have you suffered a stroke? Join Flannery's virtual support group, Young and Young At Heart, or visit her nonprofit, Stroke Onward.

    "My TBI was the best thing that ever happened to me."

    Check out Laura's book! "No, I'm Not Fine. Thank You."
    And her podcast! "Healing #NoFilter"
