About
Craig-Ames
I never expected my life to be divided into a before and an after, but becoming a stroke survivor reshaped everything, my health, my perspective, and my sense of identity. Like many people, I was busy living, working, and planning for the future, never imagining how suddenly things could change. In the days and weeks that followed my stroke, recovery felt overwhelming and uncertain, not just physically but cognitively and emotionally as well. Progress wasn’t linear, and some days felt heavier than others. One of the hardest parts was figuring out where to begin when everything felt scattered, which is why I started writing things down.
What Our Client's Say

Survivor Warrior Mantra
Listen to your body. Honor your strength. Take action
Before anything else, I ask you to pause for a moment. Being a Survivor Warrior doesn’t mean pushing through everything in silence; it means having the strength to listen when your body speaks. Life moves fast, and it’s easy to ignore the quiet signals we tell ourselves aren’t important: the exhaustion, the stress, the feeling that something isn’t quite right. I did that too. Sometimes those signals don’t arrive loudly; they whisper, asking us to slow down, pay attention, and take our health seriously. This space exists to remind you that awareness is strength, prevention is power, and taking care of yourself is not weakness. Whether you’re here for your own journey or walking beside someone you love, my hope is that this message encourages you to trust your instincts, get checked, ask questions, and choose action before “later” becomes “too late.” You are stronger than you think and listening to your body is one of the bravest things you can do.
