Happy Independence Day to all our U.S. listeners—and a warm welcome to everyone tuning in around the world! In this special episode of The Neuro Collective Podcast, Dr. Michael and May Bagnell dive into the powerful connection between freedom and health.

They explore what freedom truly means—not just as a national concept, but as a deeply personal journey. Together, they share inspiring patient stories of healing, restored hope, and reclaimed independence—from a bride regaining her health before her wedding, to remarkable recoveries from cognitive decline.

You'll hear:

  • How brain health impacts freedom and daily life
  • Why "agency"—the power to make your own choices—matters in healing
  • How hope acts like a life raft during tough health challenges
  • Real-life transformations that prove it’s never too late to regain freedom


Whether you’re seeking healing or simply reflecting on your own health journey, this episode will inspire you to prioritize your well-being and remind you that hope and freedom often go hand in hand.

What We Learned:

  • Freedom isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, mental, and deeply personal.
  • Hope can be a starting point for healing.
  • Our health is the “only house we’ll ever live in”—it deserves attention.
