WOODWARD his quote, which resides on 2nd Life Marketing’s
website, is the reason Katie Woodward decided to
follow her dreams and create her own business after
suffering a concussion in September 2018. She has always
had a passion for marketing, but it wasn’t until her time at
On With Life that Katie took the next step.
Katie was struggling with headaches, dizziness, vision and
movement of her neck after she hit her head on a garden
shed while helping her mom clean. A doctor diagnosed her
with Post Concussive Syndrome and referred her to On
With Life’s outpatient rehabilitation program. Katie spent
five months strengthening her eyes, neck and memory, and
figuring out what was to come next in her life.
As Katie, her mom and her therapists brainstormed
what Katie was going to do once she discharged from
On With Life, her therapists suggested she try
creating a website to see if she could get started in
marketing.
“It took a while to make that first website and
it wasn’t the best one I’ve ever made, but I did
it,” said Katie. “That’s when my mom suggested
focusing on creating websites going forward.”
Katie’s therapists worked with her to ensure she
was set up for success as she returned to work and
created her new business. They worked together
on her resume, website, research, and made
accommodations to her computer to reduce strain
on her eyes.
