How Traumatic Brain Injuries could reveal more than they remove | Ryan Brady | TEDxIEMadrid

At 17 years old, Ryan Brady was in a near-fatal car accident that left him in a coma, only to wake up having forgotten how to speak his native language and walk. He spent his last year of high school learning to speak English again and learning to walk while working to graduate at the same time. Due to this experience, he developed a fascinating positive mindset and now encourages others to start today, taking a step toward your dreams; you can learn anything you need; the power is within yourself. Ryan speaks at universities internationally and loves to take the road less traveled.
