Professional Resources That Actually Work
Evidence-based tools and community insights created by professionals with epilepsy. Because we know what helps when Monday meetings matter more than medical textbooks.
2.9 million Americans of working age have epilepsy. These are the resources we wish existed.
We Know the Search
It's 2 AM, and you're wide awake—not from insomnia, but from that particular kind of professional anxiety that comes with epilepsy. Tomorrow's presentation looms, and you're calculating contingencies: What if you have an aura during the Q&A? Should you have disclosed to your new team lead? Is that flickering conference room light going to be a problem? You open your laptop, searching for answers, for strategies, for someone who gets it.
You search "epilepsy workplace success" and find medical journals discussing seizure classifications that don't translate to conference room realities. You try "epilepsy career advice" and discover generic disability resources that don't understand the specific dynamics of postictal fog during back-to-back meetings. You search "epilepsy disclosure work" and find legal documents that explain your rights but not how to actually have that conversation with your manager without derailing your promotion prospects.
The gap between medical literature and Monday morning is vast.
Medical professionals understand seizure management but rarely grasp workplace politics. Career coaches know professional development but lack epilepsy-specific insight. Legal resources explain the ADA but don't capture the nuanced calculation of when disclosure helps versus harms your career trajectory.
We Bridge That Gap
We exist in that space between the neurologist's office and the office office. Our resources come from professionals who've navigated both seizure action plans and strategic business plans, who understand that managing epilepsy at work isn't just about medical compliance—it's about professional excellence while honoring your health needs. We know because we live it, across every industry, at every career stage, with every seizure type.
This isn't about lowering expectations or accepting limitations. It's about strategic navigation with full information.
We exist because:
Medical resources don't translate to workplace strategy.
Knowing your seizure triggers doesn't automatically teach you how to request flexible scheduling in a way that advances rather than limits your career.
General disability resources miss epilepsy-specific challenges.
The accommodation that works for someone with a mobility disability might be irrelevant or even counterproductive for someone managing seizure unpredictability.
Inspirational content doesn't provide actionable frameworks.
Hearing that "you can do anything" doesn't help when you need specific language for explaining workplace seizures without sounding like a liability.
Our resources come from professionals who've navigated both seizure action plans and strategic business plans. We've compiled the insights that only come from years of working while managing unpredictable neurology.
