Thank you to All First Responders and Health Care Workers

Thank you!

With the recent surge in COVID 19 and the upcoming school year there is so much concern, fear and anxiety many are feeling. And, I wanted to take a moment to honor all that everyone is doing to help flatten the curve.

This is in no particular order…

But first, thank you to YOU! Anyone that is reading this and is doing their part each day to stay home as best they can, social distance, wear a face mask, wash hands…thank you for doing all you can to help flatten the curve of COVID 19 cases.

And thank you to all Health Care Workers and First Responders

In full disclosure, my husband is a firefighter, and each time he goes into work I am inspired by his courage and bravery as well as all of his firefighting brothers and sisters. Thank you to all First Responders for your courage and bravery each and every day!

Thank you to all Health Care Providers out there each day helping people impacted by COVID 19. There are so many sacrifices that are unseen that so many are making each day as they leave their families to care for those who need them.

I was watching an interview recently with a doctor and she was talking about how some of the doctors she works with at the hospital aren’t going back to their homes while they are treating patients. Instead they are staying away from their families to try and protect them.

Amazing sacrifices so many are making.

Thank you to all Delivery! To all those that bring mail to people each and every day. To all that bring packages to front doors, that deliver groceries from stores…thank you!

Thank you to all Grocery Stores! Thank you for providing food to communities…

Thank you to all Therapists! I think therapists and counselors fall into the category of an important and significant responder. You are on the front lines of providing mental health and support to so many that may be feeling isolated, feeling anxious, depressed. For all that are grieving…

Thank you to all Educators, School Administrators, School Workers, Parents, and all work each day to help keep schools and children healthy! Thank you for your daily sacrifices and for all you do to help educate our most precious!

Thank you to anyone I may I have missed in this blog…thank you!

Setting Personal Goals

Personal Realization of the Benefit of Setting Personal Goals

I wanted to write today about setting goals that are more personal. That are focused not on your practice building but on your self care. On things that make you, YOU. On things that inspire you. Things you’ve always wanted to do.

What I Realized That Was Huge For Me (In Many Different Ways)

For a long while throughout my life, I tended to focus outside of myself. And as a result, I would end up saying yes to things I didn’t want to do. Or, I wouldn’t say yes or no, I would just stay stuck. Then one day I was on a trip (that I honestly didn’t really want to be on but felt obligated). And while on this trip, many things happened that validated all the reasons why I didn’t want to go in the first place. (Has this ever happened to you?)

My norm during these situations was that I would just take it so to speak. Feel like I didn’t have a choice in the matter. That I had to be there to please others and that was the way it was. Until I woke up. Until I pushed myself past the exhaustion I felt – emotional exhaustion that was creating physical tiredness in me – until I pushed myself past this moment of emotional/physical drain and took a step and did something I had been wanting to do. Something that was just for me. And I did. I left that environment and did what I had been wanting to do, a goal I had set in my head, for some time but never did until then.

And when I accomplished this, I felt so good! All of the stressors were still there but I felt different. Inside of me felt different. I wasn’t controlled by outside circumstances. And when I left that trip, I didn’t just have tales of all of the stress that happened. It was actually the total opposite. I didn’t really have a need to focus on all of the things I couldn’t control. All of the negative things that were weighing me down. I actually just felt really good and that’s what I focused on when I left the trip. It really made a huge impact on me.

This is what I want to offer you. What goals do you have that bring you closer to you? That inspire you. That stretch you. That maybe you aren’t the greatest at but the fact that you tried it makes you feel like a rock star.

Spend some time creating these sides of you. I know first hand how it can be just starting out in your profession or starting out in your life as a parent. There’s so much to experience, so much to learn…and there are more parts of you too…more parts of you that make up the whole you! Spend time setting some goals to nurture those parts too.
