The Heart Attack Thriver Podcast
The sharing of stories is often underrated in the healing journey after a heart attack or any near death experience for that matter. I will be using this platform to provide a place where people who have had an “Event of the Heart” can share their stories and continue to heal themselves. I believe we all have medicine on our hearts and that our stories are the medicine that someone out there needs to receive. I will also be talking with medical experts, health care providers, dietitians, as well as holistic practitioners about yoga, meditation and breath-work and how they can all help to prevent stress and anxiety and ultimately Cardiovascular Dis-Ease.

Episode 67: One Handed Guitarist Dirk Thompson
In this episode of The Heart Attack Thriver Podcast I had the honor to speak with Dirk Thompson from Texas. Dirk suffered 4 strokes over 2 days when he was 3 years old which ultimately led to him using the use of his left arm.
Dirk shares is powerful mindset mantra “Innovation is Greater than Limitation” and embodies that mindset every day.
Dirk is incredibly inspiring and thru his hard work and perseverance has figured out how to successfully play what is typically a 2 handed instrument with one hand!
I’d be remiss if I didn’t share here the Gold Nugget Dirk shared at the end of our conversation….”sometimes you have to get to the end of yourself to find yourself!!!”
Pure Gold!!!
