In this episode, we sit down with Kenzie O'Connell, a golfer and advocate as she shares her journey with epilepsy. We discuss the transformative moment of acceptance, detailing how she shifted from feeling blamed for her seizures to embracing her condition with confidence.
Through candid reflections, we delve into the therapeutic power of sharing personal experiences with epilepsy and how this has fostered a sense of community and understanding. Kenzie also highlights how golf has served as a platform for advocacy, reshaping her relationship with her diagnosis and empowering them to inspire others. Join us for a heartfelt discussion celebrating resilience, advocacy, and the transformative power of sport and art.
