Davis Bain sustained a concussion during a soccer game in his senior year of college. Nine prior concussions had healed. This one didn't. Nearly four years later, he still lives with post-concussion syndrome, and he's turned that experience into Chronic Pain Warrior, a compassionate and practical guide for anyone facing chronic pain, illness, or invisible disability. In this episode, Davis joins Kim Nash to talk about what it's really like to live inside an invisible condition, what medical dismissal costs a patient emotionally, and why asking for help specifically and without apology might be the most important thing anyone struggling can do.
