U2BDC: Used To Be's Do Count | Season 1, Episode 8
Reese Sabatini-Blake | I Used To Be...Paralysed
Reese Sabatini-Blake went in for brain surgery to reduce her seizures. She woke up paralysed. In this extraordinary episode, Reese shares with Dean James the terrifying moment she learned she’d had a stroke on the operating table—and was told she’d never walk unaided again. But Reese refused to accept that fate. Armed with fierce determination and a deep understanding of neuroplasticity, she rewired her brain and reclaimed 99% of her movement. Now a best-selling author and holistic mental health professional, Reese uses her story of survival and science to help others rise from adversity and unlock their full potential. This is not just recovery—it’s reinvention.
