{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Julia Lindenthal in the hot seat","description":"On November 9, 2024 the unthinkable happened. Julia’s father, seemingly healthy and in great shape, died very suddenly. Only after receiving autopsy results did she and her family learn what he died from: aortic dissection due to arterial plaque calcification. This prompted Julia to want to make people more aware and prepared for the sudden death of a loved one and raise awareness for the need for arterial plaque removal. She started a fundraiser in her fathers name through The Heart Foundation and is in the process of preparing for her first ever Ted Talk on this issue.\n\nJulia believes you can turn your worst life experiences into meaningful learning opportunities to help other people and even into business ventures and a career. Through telling her story of her fathers sudden death and what she learned from this, she is hoping to inspire more community support around talking and preparing people for the reality of death, the chemically altering experience of losing a parent suddenly and the need for a cure for artery plaque.\n\n https://donate.theheartfoundation.org/inmemoryofjohnglindenthal\n\nThe fundraiser in my father’s name supports research through The Heart Foundation that goes directly to their efforts to find a cure for arterial plaque, particularly calcified plaque. This is a leading cause of heart disease, heart attack, heart failure, stroke and aortic dissection and aneurysm.\n\nhttps://donate.theheartfoundation.org/inmemoryofjohnglindenthal","author_name":"Listen Bitch Presents TELL ME WHY YOU'RE SPECIAL","author_url":"https://audioboom.com/channels/5166895-listen-bitch-presents-tell-me-why-you-re-special","provider_name":"Audioboom","provider_url":"https://audioboom.com","width":480,"height":95,"thumbnail_url":"https://audioboom.com/i/43445070/600x600/c","thumbnail_width":600,"thumbnail_height":600,"html":""}
