In this episode, I bring you a remarkable mental health success story. Kai Smit, was a normal 19-year-old kid from the Netherlands, who was getting ready to head off to university and start his life when a sudden brain hemorrhage would change everything. His odds of survival were incredibly slim, but luckily he made it. Then came the hard part. Kai had to learn how to walk, talk, and gain control of his body all over again. At first, he thought the only solution was suicide, but after a chance visit from a friend, he was inspired to invest every possible effort into his recovery. Throughout this challenging process, he learned that it’s not about getting back to where he was before the accident. It’s about accepting who you are and making the best of it. Now he’s sharing his story in hopes that it will inspire others.
