In this episode of The Save A Brain Headquarters, we’re joined by Dr. Natalie Mackenzie, a Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapist with over 22 years of experience supporting brain injury and concussion survivors—and the families and caregivers walking alongside them.
Dr. Mackenzie is the founder and director of BIS Services in the UK and the creator of Neuro Thrive, an innovative membership community designed to help survivors navigate brain injury recovery, fatigue management, and life after concussion with expert guidance and peer support.
Together, we break down some of the biggest misconceptions about concussion and TBI recovery, why no two brain injuries are the same, and how finding what works for your brain is key to long-term healing. Natalie also shares powerful insights into brain injury fatigue, practical tools to manage daily energy levels, and why community is one of the most overlooked but essential parts of recovery.
We also explore the evolving role of AI in brain injury recovery, how survivors can use technology as a supportive tool (not a replacement for care), and how programs like Neuro Thrive help people move beyond survival — and truly thrive after brain injury.
This episode is a must-listen for concussion survivors, TBI warriors, caregivers, clinicians, and anyone navigating life after a brain injury.
