On today’s episode, Joe Dickenson tells us how he has been able to navigate a full, satisfying life despite the limitations of a post-concussion body. He kicks off our discussion by sharing some of the most significant symptoms he has struggled with and tells us how his chiropractor has been instrumental in aiding his recovery. We dive into the impact of concussion recovery on work and navigating a career post-concussion, and Joe warns us about the dangers of measuring your productivity according to your pre-concussion capacity, emphasizing the value of doing the best you can. As our discussion draws to a close, we talk about Joe’s changed personality post-concussion and how he has been able to embrace introversion in order to care for himself and prioritize quiet time alone.

We hope you tune in today to hear a hopeful story about the adjustments that have enabled Joe to enjoy life after his injuries!
