Vanessa Woodburn is an author, certified health coach, and educator whose work is rooted in resilience, self-compassion, and the journey of rebuilding after life’s unexpected setbacks.
She is the author of Bounce Back: Reclaim Your Life After a Concussion, a book born from her own experience navigating the physical, emotional, and personal challenges of concussion recovery. Through her book, coaching, workshops, and talks, Vanessa helps people move forward after concussion and other difficult life disruptions—with greater self-compassion, confidence, and a renewed sense of possibility.
Vanessa began her career as a special education teacher. After starting a family, she followed a new spark toward a career in health and wellness.

Vanessa’s own concussion experience fueled her desire to learn more about healing, leading her to earn a Certificate in Brain Health from McMaster University in 2023.
Today, Vanessa brings together her experience in education, health coaching, wellness, resilience, and compassion to help people feel healthy, whole, and capable again after a setback.
She lives in Mississauga, Ontario, with her family. When she’s not teaching, writing, or coaching, she enjoys relaxing at the cottage, listening to music, reading, and traveling.
