05 Francesca Turauskis on Understanding Epilepsy, the Relief of Being Diagnosed, the Stigma, and trekking the Camino de Santiago
Francesca Turauskis joins me to have a chat about her experience with epilepsy, the relief of getting a diagnosis, understanding epilepsy and the stigma that exists with it. She’ll also be sharing with us her adventure in walking solo the Camino de Santiago – a 500 mile journey across Spain. From her preparation, greatest challenges, favorite parts and lessons learned. Fran created her own podcast Seize Your Adventure to normalise the idea of epilepsy and guests share the hidden aspects of taking on adventures with epilepsy. Be sure to give it a listen when you get a chance!
