If you are feeling overwhelmed, this book is your roadmap to healing your brain, and finding hope again - Growth Happens in the Dirt..If you or your loved one has ever suffered concussion (mild traumatic brain injury), you need to read this book. This book is not just about the impact on the individual, a brain injury effects everyone around the person. Even for practitioners, this story offers intimate insight into how a person actually feels with a brain injury. Growth Happens in the Dirt is not just another recovery guide - it’s a raw, heartfelt account of the journey through the darkest depths of post-concussion syndrome. Katie Jolly opens up about the struggles with mental health, rehabilitation, social isolation, brain fog, memory loss, anxiety, depression and pain management, all of the symptoms that accompany traumatic brain injury.

From losing the identity she knew, suicidal ideation and the breakdown of her relationships she shares the true emotional toll of post-concussion syndrome. Yet through the road to healing, every part of her life was transformed - her physical, mental, social and spiritual health. This book walks you through every stage, from the initial injury, how to advocate for yourself with health professionals, rehabilitation, how to find hope again, get back into life and strategies for your pain management and learning to ’human’ again.

Along with the support of specialists (all of who are featured in this book) she reclaimed her wellbeing and came off countless medications.
