Show Notes

On the sixth episode of How to Student, Sarah Renberg interviews David Jevotovsky. David is currently in his MBA year of an MD/MBA program at New York University. 

He is also a brain injury survivor.

In this episode, David will share his insights into resilience, telling the story of how he went from being in a coma, unable to walk or talk, to returning to medical school and finishing the New York City Marathon less than a year after his accident.

He and Sarah will also discuss the importance of knowing when to ask for help, how to adapt your learning style through trial and error, the role of communal support in a meaningful life, and some of the other lessons they've learned through their experiences with brain injury.
