Jeff Pearson looks perfectly healthy—but his brain tells a very different story.
In episode 276 of Gratitude Geek, host Kandas Rodarte chats with Jeff, a speaker, nonprofit founder, and host of Invisible Condition on e360tv. Born with hydrocephalus, Jeff has endured seven brain surgeries, six of them in just over a decade. But instead of giving up, he and his wife launched a nonprofit, a TV show, a caregiver support network, and a mission to bring hope to others living with invisible conditions.
Tune in to discover:
What it's really like living with a surgically-managed brain condition
How Jeff and Catherine launched Hydro with Hope and Invisible Condition University (ICU)
Why caregivers need just as much support as patients
How alternative therapies gave Jeff his life back when medicine said "just live with it"
The business reality of running a nonprofit with impact
Whether you're navigating your own invisible health journey or supporting someone who is, this episode will shift your perspective—and maybe even restore some hope.
🎯 Mantra of the episode: Launch and Adjust.
