Jeff Holden suffered a heart attack on August 26th, 2021 when he was arguably in the best shape of his life. His desperate attempt to determine a reason and end a life-threatening situation meant months of hospital visits and testing with cardiac specialists. Eventually sent to Stanford Medical Center, it was determined he had an often-misdiagnosed congenital heart condition known as a myocardial bridge. Controversial surgery successfully repaired his heart. A podcast studio owner (Hear Me Now Studio) and podcaster, he created the podcast “Imperfect Heart” to raise awareness of this condition, support those with unexplained cardiac symptoms, and challenge medical perspectives on heart attack-like events with no immediately identifiable cause.JEFF HOLDEN suffered a heart attack on August 26th, 2021 when he was arguably in the best shape of his life.
