Did you know that stroke is the No. 4 cause of death in women? The lifetime risk of stroke for women between 55 and 75 in the United States is 1 in 5. Stroke is the third leading cause of death for women. This condition is also the leading cause of serious, long-term disability in the United States.

These facts astonished me when I heard them. Stroke is not a commonly talked about subject, and I believe we need more education on this topic, especially if you are a woman over 50!

Hope After Stroke For Caregivers and Survivors

So, when I got to speak with Tsgoyna Tanzman, I knew she would be a very valuable guest on the podcast. Tsgoyna is a holistic Speech-Language Pathologist, Life Coach, author, and speaker who’s helped thousands of survivors and their caregivers recover meaningful lives after stroke and brain injury.

Tsgoyna’s book is called “Hope After Stroke for Caregivers & Survivors.”

In this episode, Tsgoyna educates us on the types of strokes, helps identify signs of a stroke, and gives helpful advice on lowering our stress and risk of stroke overall. Listen to this week’s episode for all this useful knowledge; you never know if you need it.
