What are you most proud of in your life?
When I was around 12 years old I made the decision that I would either be an equine veterinarian or a psychiatrist. When I graduated from high school I enrolled in college as a pre-vet student, but about mid way through my third year I realized that being a veterinarian was just not what I wanted to be so I changed my major to psychiatry with the intention of being a psychiatrist.
I soon found out that being a psychiatrist was really more about prescribing medication to people and not necessarily about talking to people and helping them work through their issues, so again I changed my major and did indeed become a licensed marriage and family therapist.
But being a therapist is not what I am most proud of…….what I am most proud of is that I opened my own practice after being at a group practice for years, and I opened this practice right when everything shut down because of Covid, and my practice was very successful, most in part because everyone was stuck at home and needed therapy. However, my practice is still thriving just about 5 years later, so what started out as something scary, turned out to be rewarding and successful. And I did not allow anyone to stop me or talk me out of doing what I wanted to do.
I firmly believe that the thoughts and energy you put out into the universe is what you will get back.
