National Blood Clot Alliance launches Season 2 of life-saving podcast-Every 6 minutes blood clots kill someone in the US
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, October 29, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Blood Clot Alliance (NBCA), the nation’s preeminent nonprofit organization dedicated to blood clot prevention, awareness, and education, is excited to announce the Season Two launch of its award-winning debut podcast, Taking a Breath: A Stop the Clot Podcast. This mission-driven global podcast series continues to educate and inform audiences about the critical importance of blood clot awareness and prevention. With the commitment and dedication to the prevention and survival of the worlds most notoriously silent killer, Taking a Breath aims to arm you with the tools you need to save lives. A life that may even be your own.
Hosted by Leslie Lake, NBCA's volunteer president, and Todd Robertson, NBCA’s passionate patient liaison—both of whom are blood clot survivors—Season Two promises to deliver even more inspiring stories from blood clot survivors and heartfelt tributes from families who have needlessly suffered the loss of loved ones to blood clots. “ I’m so tired of waiting.” said Leslie Lake. “Something has to change. Something has to be done and we’re here to make some actual waves in the discourse. People need to be talking about this and there’s no way around it. The longer we wait, the more people die and I, for one, am sick and tired of watching people die preventable deaths. The time for nuance has come and gone. We are here to save lives. Full stop.”
The statistics surrounding blood clots remain staggering, with an estimated 100,000 people dying each year among the 900,000 affected, many of whom face long-term health complications.
In the saturated podcasting landscape filled with conversations surrounding health, this series is set apart by the invaluable contributions from medical professionals and the courageous accounts of diverse individuals, including Olympians, politicians, celebrities and everyday heroes who have bravely faced the challenges posed by blood clots. Each episode weaves together compelling narratives with insights on prevention and symptom awareness, using storytelling to make life-saving blood clot information accessible and engaging on a global scale.
Jennifer Smith, founder and CEO of Everything Podcasts, is also a blood clot survivor. She expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming season, stating, “This podcast saves lives and I mean that literally. The platform that we have been able to create alongside The National Blood Clot Alliance is something I am so deeply proud of. As a blood clot survivor, I know, first hand, the fear and the anguish of not knowing whether or not you’ll survive. Something this common and this devastating should be paramount in the public discourse and yet it is often not discussed. This show will continue to change that.”
Season Two of “Taking a Breath: A Stop the Clot Podcast” now launched. Tune in and join us as we continue to reshape the way the world perceives blood clots and their devastating consequences, empowering individuals with life-saving information.
