🌟 Hi, it’s me! 🌟
For those I haven’t met & the ones who are always far too kind to read the posts I make. In honor of my return to office I wanted to share a few things about me.
• As much as I work for myself in the office. My home life is a different story, I have two bosses. A 4 year old and 11 month old. Both of which have very serious requests for snacks to be provided, toy castles to be built only to be smashed, and to simply always be near to provide a laugh or smile.
• Being at home with my family feels incredibly special to me. However, so does being in the office providing acupuncture treatments. It always has. I came back to work casually from this maternity leave at 10 months postpartum and I swear I could have comeback sooner (if my baby was a better sleeper) since I missed it so much.
• I love stand up comedy. It’s so entertaining and I will always appreciate a well curated joke.
• French fries continue to be my favourite food. After 34 years of living it is what it is. I just can’t seem to change this fact.
• In 2021 I received a hand written letter from the mother of a client of mine. This client and I were about the same age and they struggled with addiction. This letter was to tell me their child (my client) had passed away. That moment continues to be the saddest moment in my professional career. This patient also saw weekly therapy among other services for care & I still will feel sad they’re no longer here.
I think that captures it. My life is a mix of the fun and the serious and I like to reserve my capacity to show up for it all because it’s important.
