Allow me to introduce myself to those who are new here. My name is Jamie, and I am married with three children. I work fulltime , and I am very fortunate to be able to work from home, and have been seizure free for 5 years and counting!
I have always had seizures, from being born two months early, to not having a breakthrough seizure until age 5, then a hiatus until age 21. After having multiple seizures, in 2011, I decided to make a change. I was unhappy with the way I looked, felt, and acted. One day I decided I was no longer accepting that unhappiness and did everything I could to change my life.
And it did. Since then, I have grown mentally in ways I cannot even explain, and have been seizure free since January 2014! Just a few years ago I was filled with self doubt, couldn’t stick up for myself, lacked confidence and was surrounded by negativity. Now, I refuse to let that negativity bother me. It will always be there, the stress and the negativity but it is not about that, it’s about how YOU react to it.
Taking everything with one step at a time, I began staying active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with Epilepsy. It is my mission to pay it forward and teach you how to do the same. Because I have been able to see the positive with having Epilepsy, I am a speaker, trainer, and advocate for the community.
Looking for a speaker for your next conference, mom's group, or business event? I would love to join you there to encourage, inspire, and challenge your attendees on how to eliminate the stigma associated with seizures!
If you are interested in having me come train you, your staff, or your friends-contact me today!
