THIS WEEK'S GUEST
This week we are joined by Concussion Legacy Foundation co-founder and CEO, Chris Nowinski, PhD. CLF is a non-profit organization that is leading the fight against concussions and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, or CTE, a degenerative brain disease found in athletes, military veterans, and others with a history of repetitive brain trauma.

We’ll also talk with retired U.S. Navy Commander Daryl Adamson about his experience as a suicide loss survivor and the legacy of his son, Cameron, a Marine, who died by suicide in 2021 at age 22. The Adamson family donated Cameron's brain for study of CTE, and are advocates for the Concussion Legacy Foundation Project Enlist.
