Welcome to the Upstroke Podcast Channel , where real recovery meets raw honesty. I’m Shayne DeMarce — a biker, stroke survivor, and believer on a mission to turn tragedy into testimony. After a life-changing motorcycle crash and stroke, I set out to rebuild my body, my brain, my faith, and my purpose one conversation at a time. Each week, I share my story and also sit down with fellow stroke survivors, caregivers, therapists, and everyday heroes to talk about the uphill road of recovery — the mental battles, the breakthroughs, and the grace that keeps us going. Whether you’re fighting back from injury, walking through faith struggles, or just need a dose of real talk and hope, this show is for you. 🎥 Watch the full video versions and behind-the-scenes stories on YouTube at Upstroke Podcast Channel .
