“Brain Injury: The Greatest Gift I Never Wanted“ with Cheri Carandanis

The neurologist said her brain was rewiring itself- what emerged would be something whole. Something wild. Something wonderfully unexpected.

Cheri, a former Air Force Critical Care Nurse, knows a thing or two about surviving injury. But after a traumatic brain injury ended her 25 year career, she turned to art as a lifeline.

She creates art that is raw, emotionally layered to hold space for what’s been broken, unraveled, and rebuilt.

The injury that stole her nursing career gave her back her soul. Now Cheri stands before a canvas, paintbrush in hand, creating magic.
