Katie Williamsen is an entrepreneur and web designer. She has lived with type 1 narcolepsy with cataplexy for over six years and, by sharing her story, aims to raise awareness of this life-changing condition.
The Rising Voices Series features a variety of first-hand stories from people living with sleep disorders around the world. At Project Sleep, we believe in the power of storytelling to raise awareness and break down stigma. This is why we train people with sleep disorders on how to share their stories through the Rising Voices training program.
