  • Make A Difference Minute: Braxton Davis and Coach Jessica Blevins on Resilience and Perspective

    Make A Difference Minute: Braxton Davis and Coach Jessica Blevins on Resilience and Perspective
    Apr 1 2026
    On this Make A Difference Minute, I’m sharing a conversation with Central High School track coach Jessica Blevins and her student athlete, Braxton Davis, from the Florence, Alabama area. Coach Blevins talks about the fear and uncertainty after learning Braxton had been in a serious accident, and how she and the coaching staff stayed connected with his family while he fought his way through those early days and into rehab at Shepherd Center. Braxton shares how his perspective on competition has changed. While he’s still competitive, he says it’s bigger than winning now. It’s about becoming the best version of himself and encouraging others to believe they can keep getting better too. Together, their voices highlight what resilience really looks like.

    Make A Difference Minute: Navigating Life After Traumatic Brain Injury with April Turner
    Mar 31 2026
    On this Make a Difference Minute, I have April Turner, State Head Injury Coordinator with the Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services, sharing a powerful and needed message for individuals and families across Alabama. Traumatic brain injury is often unseen, but its impact is real and far-reaching. April brings clarity to what so many people struggle to understand, reminding us that brain injuries affect not only the individual, but entire families who are trying to adjust, support, and move forward together. With more than two decades of experience, April shares a message rooted in both truth and compassion. There is hope. There are resources available. And there are people ready to walk alongside those navigating life after a brain injury. From simple accommodations at home to statewide support systems, help may be closer than people realize. If you or someone you know needs support, the Alabama TBI Helpline is available at 888-879-4706.
