As I continued to recover from my MTB crash, I kept having new experiences which provided insights into what is not typical for me, but might be typical for others. I found a leadership lesson here as well which I will share.

As I lived through a number of new experiences where my mobility was hampered, the pain I felt, dealing with different health practitioners, an ambulance ride and an overnight stay in an emergency department, it made me think about what pure empathy is.

During my concussion recovery, different health providers recommended various supplements. I blindly started a couple of new ones all at once….forgetting how sensitive my body is to foreign entries (Maybe I can blame my concussion for that!). I also reduced the amount of one and stopped taking another.
