The Journey Begins March 27, 2019

It’s crazy to think this heart-filling weekend that I’ll never forget stemmed from a love for doggies and genuine human interaction at a public market. This is the third time that we’ve spent time with @nakiyahf and @flung_out_of_space17, and it feels like I’ve known them for a lifetime. We made plans, followed through, and the most magical 24 hours of my life was the product. Ashley and Nakiyah, thank you for welcoming us into your home, opening your hearts, sharing your puppy, and sharing some of the deepest parts of yourselves. Sarah and Molly, thank you for always making me feel like I matter and that I’m heard, for showering me with love and the best proprioceptive feedback. To all four of you, thank you for setting amazing standards of what true unconditional love is and for reminding me to never settle for anything short of magic. I will never ever forget this trip or the bonds we created and I love you all so much! @sar_hart12 @flung_out_of_space17 @nakiyahf @mollysabidi ••• Slayed the concrete jungle with a bunch of 🌈s ••• Wishing you all a Gay weekend 💖

Today is my one year anniversary of practicing OT and holy 💩 has a lot happened. I’ve driven across the country (twice), worked in home health and skilled nursing/LTAC, and obtained a license in 4 states. I’ve made some incredible connections with patients, families, and colleagues. I’ve felt completely broken and completely whole. I’ve been challenged is hundreds of ways that OT school didn’t prepare me for. I’ve advocated heavily for the profession of OT and the LGBTQIA+ community, stood my ground, and empowered myself and others to be confident in WHO they are. I’ve never felt more authentic in my whole life and am surrounded by the most amazing friends who empower me to be my true self. I’ve never been more sure that I am on the right path and accept what the universe has in store for me. Thank you to everyone who has been there on this journey with me, I have so much love for you all 💖 ••• Any guesses to where I’m headed next? Hint: 🏔🏂🧗🏻‍♂️

I woke up anxious today, turned on a track and then went for it. No warm up, no tuning, just me in my brother’s kitchen. This is raw. This is how I process emotions. I used to be anxious about what others would say about my voice or the imperfections, now I don’t care. In the words of @lizzobeeating, turns out I am 100% that bitch. Thanks for listening 💖

@ot.4.lyfe totally drove ALL THE WAY across the USA just to engage in magical proprioceptive input with her favorite 🌈 • Sarah is hands down one of the most thoughtful, compassionate, and intelligent people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and I’m so lucky to call her one of my OT besties. If you ever want to feel inspired, just listen to any of her podcast episodes! 💖 • Thank you for taking time to visit, eating some ~real~ chicken wings, beef on weck, and downing some Buffalo IPAs 💖

Celebrating this moment of gratitude and pride. I am beyond honored @dyouvillealumni 💖 • Be a force of nature, follow your passions, ALWAYS give back to your community, and never hesitate to show up and speak up about what you care about. Occupational Therapy is more than just a profession, it changes how you view and embrace life. This is only the beginning 🌈 • “The Alumni Association established The Young Alum Award to recognize an alumnus/alumna who graduated within the past 10 years, has distinguished himself/herself among his or her peers and has potential for continued success in his or her chosen profession. In addition, the nominee must be actively engaged in community service or service to the College.” • To those who have empowered, supported, and guided me, thank you. @griff.frye @molly_backus @jordywigg @marissastrzelec @tv_ot @taelormadeot @shannenmarie_ot @ot.4.lyfe @eschlerhoag @rennieornot @8alexisjoelle @kneu10 @caz15 @tonia.finke @ mymom & @ manymanymore ❤️
