I post a lot about these Tuesday morning homeschool preschool afternoons with my daughter. I imagine some folks might be sick of seeing them, or think that maybe I’m showing off. I promise I’m not - our sessions are too imperfect for that.
Opening your own micro practice while taking insurance is HARD. It’s not just a financial choice (and it is that), but navigating multiple payer portals and customer service lines, figuring out how to set up billing and then actually do it and just anything you ever have to do ever with Medicaid has made the opening of Circles of Sage a pretty much constant fight or flight activity for now.
I often think I made the wrong choice. I often think “to hell with it, no more insurance”. And while thinking about creating accessible care for patients helps in those moments, Tuesday mornings keep me going. I couldn’t have this without the choice I made to go out on my own. These mornings with her are more than a reminder, they are the purpose. Thank you for letting me share them with you all 🙏
We transplanted our very happy bean seedlings today, made medicine for our friend’s inflamed eye and practiced counting/tracing numbers today! Looking for my recipe for eye poultices? Scroll to the third photo!
