Across three decades of practice, Dr. Taylor has walked families through ALS, Parkinson’s, dementia, addiction, traumatic brain injury, concussions, and devastating strokes — including the massive stroke that took her own brother. She and Frank go deep on:
- How women are routinely dismissed and “gaslit” in medical settings
- Her own almost-missed endometrial cancer, brushed off as “just stress”
- The emotional cost of telling families the worst news a human can hear
- Why she nearly quit medicine after her mother died in an ICU
- The hidden danger of youth sports concussions and second-impact syndrome
- Near-death experiences, souls, and why she believes something comes after this life
- Prancer the therapy dog: intuitive diagnoses, comforting the paralyzed, and angels in fur
