Innovation Through Adversity
The invention of the Theragun by Jason Worsland was not a result of a strategic plan but rather an unlikely creation inspired by an accident. Initially planning to follow in his father's footsteps as a carpet and flooring salesman, Jason's life took a detour when he faced personal and professional setbacks. After losing his marriage and business, he pursued a career change to become a chiropractor. However, a motorcycle accident led him to develop the Theragun, a massager that uses percussive energy to relieve pain, showcasing how innovation can stem from unexpected adversity.
