Jeff Gould, the show's co-host, grew up in Tucson Arizona where he suffered a crippling and life altering head injury - a traumatic brain injury - at the age of 13. Turning to substance abuse for relief, Jeff would ultimately descend into homelessness and despair which he has thoughtfully described in his published memoir ‘A Life Concussed’.

Now working as a mental health professional, Jeff brings his personal and professional experience to bear on coaching patients who have suffered traumatic brain injuries. You can learn more about Jeff's practice at TBIcoaches.com

In this podcast, Jeff discusses his own experience with TBI and strategies he’s learned to live with and recover from his injury. He provides actionable guidance on how to identify TBI, what steps to take to recover, and how to support friends and loved ones suffering from a brain injury.

The co-host and executive producer of this show is Mark Goode.

How to Keep a Healthy Brain

In this episode, Jeff discusses things that anyone can do (and should do) to maintain a healthy brain. As Jeff explains, there is a tight correlation between diet, exercise, water intake, and learning as steps all of us can take to maintain a healthy brain.

And why is this important? Whether you've suffered a traumatic brain injury or not, your brain is the neurological center of your body. And as you age -- and suffer injury to your brain -- you need to follow a regimen to keep one of your body's most important organs healthy and vibrant.

By the way, if you haven't checked out Jeff's new website, do so now! He's opened up a practice to help people with TBI and works with clients both locally (in Dallas) as well as across the country. Here's the link to find his new site.
