Why I’m obsessed with my job
What makes this job so enriching for me, are the people I meet, the stories I hear, and the beautiful healing I see unfold. Each day feels novel and challenges me towards my own personal growth. I get to have days that feel connecting, vulnerable, fulfilling, and challenging all at the same time. It's seriously magic making.
My favorite song to dance to:
"One Dance" by Drake....but honestly, put on any Drake track and I’ll be dancing. #obsessed.
My favorite BUWS meal
A big yummy salad with blackened chicken, avocado, portobello mushrooms, lots of veggies, and my fave green goddess dressing.
My favorite “right now” skills
Putting on my essential oil diffuser. I have that thing running all day!
My favorite “long-lasting” skill
Walking outside in nature, either by myself as I listen to a podcast or, along with my husband.
