In this episode, the Irish actor, who was 24 when it happened, tells Elizabeth and Julia his honest story of living with brain injury for the past 12 years .
With humour and ease, Conor opens up about the challenges he has faced and how he has learned to love himself again after struggling with his identity.

Recently a father, Conor says his daughter has had a huge impact on his life and recovery and he is eternally grateful to his wife Zara and the support she has given him over the years.
