[Conor & Kathy Crippen] One Grain at a Time
*Content warning: This episode includes discussion of drunk driving, reckless driving, medical trauma, & traumatic brain injury.
Conor Crippen is a survivor and victim advocate from Ohio. Upon his entrance to college at Loyola University Chicago, Conor studied neuroscience and biology. It would be less than a year into his educational career though that his plans were cut short by a drunk driver. As a result of the accident, he suffered a traumatic brain injury, and began a new life of recovery. We are so grateful that Conor (and his mom Kathy) were willing to join us to talk about all that came next in their journey, as well as the inspiration they hope to spread with their journey.
