Bagwell Consulting Services
Over 30 years of experience!
My story…
On March 12, 1990 I was walking to work at 4:30am. A guy was speeding to work because he was late for work, and he lost control of his car. The car hit me on the left side, I went up on his car, cracked his windshield with my head, and rolled off of the right side of his car into a ditch.
I suffered from a permanently broken ankle, a crushed pelvis, a busted spleen, and a traumatic brain injury (TBI).
For years, I was trying to find my place in the world, and to really accept that I have a disability. I had to put in my mind that if I wanted to go back to the type of work before I was going to need accommodations.
I asked questions that others probably would not have, and I did research into services that I was entitled to.
Today, I am doing this as an advocate for other people with disabilities. I am here to be your advocate and be your voice! I am also available as a consultant for businesses that are looking to hire people with disabilities, but don’t know where to begin. I can provide some vital resources to provide accommodations.
Please send me an email today so we can start to work together at hello@john-bagwell.com!
My work…
Sometimes people with disabilities don’t know the right questions to ask, or don’t know how to find the resources that they need for Social Security, transportation, housing and more. Or they are afraid to speak up about their rights as a person with a disability.
There are some businesses that do not understand or know about the accommodations a person with a disability needs in order to be successful at their job.
After I was released to go back to work, I struggled with knowing when and how to request the accommodations that I needed. I was worried if I asked for too much the employer would find a way to terminate me.
I am here to assist you in getting what you need as a person with a disability. I am also here to assist businesses, small or large, in accommodating the new hires with disabilities.

Fitness & Health
People with disabilities can reduce the risks of developing other health problems with regular exercise. This will also help with chronic diseases such as congestive heart failure, diabetes, anxiety, and depression. Eating properly is also important to help maintain blood pressure, glucose, and more. My trainer always tells me, “Listen to your body.”
More on fitness and health will be coming soon!
A Constant Source of Motivation
Think of me as your personal cheerleader. I want to help you find the strength and courage you didn’t know you had. I was like that years ago until I hit a bunch of barriers! I do not take no for an answer, and you shouldn’t either!
I am a firm believer of exercise, and healthy eating. I go the gym 5 days a week, and 2 of those days I have a personal trainer.
I’m all about positive reinforcement and energy!
Let’s do this together!
