Hey FABulous Reader! Well, yesterday was World Stroke Day, and guess who didn't get her newsletter out on time? ME! 🙋🏽♀️ SMH Now, how am I going to talk about stroke awareness all year long and then be a day late for World Stroke Day? SMH But here's the thing. Stroke awareness doesn't begin and end on October 29. And that's exactly why I decided to send this newsletter today instead of skipping it altogether. Because when it comes to stroke, the conversation is ALWAYS worth having. Why World...

Hey FABulous Reader! When we hear the word stroke, many people automatically think of older adults. But as we know here at Stroke Talks, stroke doesn't have an age requirement.

And this time, she brought someone special to our conversation: her boyfriend, Ari! We talked about how they met (and yes, there's a funny dating...

Hey Reader, Today I want to take a quick moment and talk about stroke risk in women. We talk a lot about taking care of everybody else. Our kids. Our spouses. Our parents. Our work. Our homes. The list can go on and on. But knowing what is happening with our own health needs to stay on that list too. According to the CDC, 1 in 5 women between the ages of 55 and 75 will have a stroke. Stroke is also a leading cause of death for women in the United States. And here's something else we need to...
