Bean Gill. Cofounder & Executive Director at ReYu Paralysis Recovery Centre.
I will be speaking about my life experiences beginning with the worst year of my life 2012. My marriage ended violently, my father left and I was paralyzed. How could my life possibly go on? Let me tell you a story of re-discovery, depression, strength, resilience, creativity, and advocacy. I turned my biggest tragedy into a huge triumph that is now helping hundreds of Albertans living with neurologic conditions. I talk about starting a non profit organization, ReYu Paralysis Recovery Centre where we reconnect the brain to the body, retrain the nervous system and redefine what is possible. I am unconventional, motivating, inspiring and most importantly FUN!
