Description

In this episode, I’ll discuss the concept of post-traumatic growth, or how living through a traumatic experience, like a stroke, can make you more resilient over time.

Post-traumatic growth is commonly discussed in stroke survivor communities, with ample testimonials from stroke survivors saying their stroke experience has led to some potential benefits.

While post-traumatic growth can occur after a stroke, it’s not a guarantee since suffering and trauma don’t always lead to growth.

For more information on post-traumatic growth and how it applies to stroke recovery, be sure to review the links and resources that I’ve included in this article: https://strokerecoveryrehab.com/2025/10/01/what-is-post-traumatic-growth-after-stroke/
