Host

Gabriella Tranchina

Typical twenty-something who was punted by a Nissan into a coma and woke up as a spiritual student with a TBI (traumatic brain injury). Gabriella is here to share all that she has learned about the Universe through dipping her toe on the other side and take you with her on her spiritual journey as she discovers more -- but she can't be too serious for too long. Sometimes she discusses trauma, but she discusses trauma through her love language of dark humor. Disability advocacy, brain injury awareness topped with giggles and a side of delulu positivity.

Win most, lose some.
