Brain Friends: The Podcast is a global space for stroke, science, and equity. Hosted by Angie Cauthorn — two-time stroke survivor and unapologetic aphasia advocate — this show unpacks the cognitive, behavioral and communication disorders that follow stroke, and the systems that shape recovery. This podcast began with my friend and co-host, Dr. D. Seles Gadson — a brilliant neuroscientist, speech-language pathologist, and fearless champion for equity in healthcare. Her work focused on health disparities in aphasia care, particularly within the Black community, and she believed deeply in making science accessible for all. I carry her legacy forward in every conversation. There are no survivor interviews here. Instead, we focus on the research, the roadblocks, and the real work of making neurorehabilitation more equitable, inclusive, and understood — especially for people with aphasia. Our listeners span over 80 countries and include speech-language pathology professionals, researchers, and people with aphasia who want more than inspiration — they want information that matters. If you're here to rethink recovery, reimagine access, and stay grounded in the science — you're in the right place. Welcome to Brain Friends. more

Henry Hoffman, licensed Occupational Therapist and Co-founder of Saebo Inc., always believed there was no such thing as 'plateauing' in stroke and traumatic brain injury recovery. When survivors stop seeing progress in their recovery journey, they're often told that they've 'plateaued' and have no choice but to accept this reality. If you ask Hoffman, he'll tell you this 'It's not the patient that plateaus, it's their treatment options that do.' It's why he co-founded his company Saebo (a medical device company focused on stroke and TBI rehab) on the mantra 'No Plateau in Sight.' So, how exactly can survivors keep pushing to overcome the fate of plateau? Hoffman is on a mission to speak to anyone and everyone out there defying the norm in neuro-rehab. This is the No Plateau Podcast the podcast for stroke and brain injury survivors, their caregivers, and the therapists helping them to break boundaries in their recovery journey. more
