Por: Dougie Smith

You survived the heart attack — but now what?  Welcome to Stronger After the Storm, the podcast for men over 50 rebuilding their lives — emotionally, mentally, and spiritually — after a heart attack. I’m Dougie, and I know this road. At 50, I had a heart attack that changed everything. What came after wasn’t just physical recovery — it was fear, anxiety, silence, and a deep questioning of identity and purpose.  This show is for the men who lie awake wondering, “Am I going to die tonight?” “Will I ever feel like myself again?” “What do I do now?”  Each episode is real talk — no sugar-coating, no fluff. Just honest stories from a man who’s been there, still there, and still rebuilding. I’ll walk with you through the tough stuff: fear after heart attack, isolation, masculinity, emotional healing, connection, and reclaiming life on your terms.  We’ll explore topics like: - Anxiety and panic after heart surgery - Rediscovering identity and purpose after trauma - Mental health for older men - What strength really looks like now - How to reconnect when you're feeling alone - Honest reflections and conversations with other survivors  Some episodes are just me sharing my story and the lessons I’ve learned. Others will feature real men and heart professionals who understand what we’re up against. If you’re looking for hope, direction, or even just someone who understands — this podcast is for you.  You’re not broken. You’re rebuilding. Let’s do it together.  New episodes every week.
