Today we’re diving deep into something that every stroke survivor wonders at some point: Can I drive again? 

The answer isn’t one-size-fits-all—and it turns out, it’s not just about where you live but how much you self-advocate.


From Italy to Canada to the US, I share what I learned chatting with other stroke warriors across the globe 🌍


Spoiler: It’s often more about self-reporting and doctors' notes than strict DMV rules. I talk about my own experience—how my eye crossed in, rehab, and a simple note led me back to the driver’s seat (music and snacks included 🎶🍓).


Whether you’re 9 months or 9 years into your recovery, this episode is your reminder that where there’s a will, there’s a way. It may not look like it used to—but you CAN get there.


💬 Drop your questions or share your story with me. Let’s keep this healing convo going!
