This Community Stories episode centers on the power of resilience, identity, and hope in the face of epilepsy. Guest host Briar Nolet, a professional dancer living with epilepsy who was on last year, welcomes Brielle May, who shares her life-changing experience after a seizure in 2024 left her in a coma for two months.

Following her hospitalization, Brielle was diagnosed with NORSE/FIRES, a rare and severe neurological condition. Now living with frequent seizures, she speaks honestly about recovery, grief for the life she once knew, and the strength it takes to keep moving forward.

Briar and Brielle discuss what it means to continue pursuing your passions, how community support can make all the difference, and why sharing real stories helps others feel less alone. This episode is a reminder that even after unimaginable moments, life - and purpose - can still take shape.
