Meetings, sessions, allotted writing time, and various other items for the day penned with purple ink in my planner -Therapist 2020 Planner – to be exact, “I’m finally wrapping my mind around this transition, its March already, get it together!”. I said these words aloud Monday March 2nd 2020, it had been 4 months since the job transition. In the days and months previous to this date, my emotions, thoughts, and body had been trying to adjust to “the change” I had gone through. Taking the leap of entrepreneurship and building my brand was beyond anxiety invoking, the thought of low job security felt like too much of a risk. In turn, most of my post here and on IG (don’t believe me, scroll down @meandmi_wellness and take a gander) reflected those feelings of insecurity and my efforts to reassure myself. I thought that it had all been building up to this moment, I had finally found my footing…March was the month (its my birthday month so I knew it would be an especially special one). WHO KNEW what March 3rd at midnight had in store?? No one that’s who!! Having a tornado hit my home and community was a dizzing experience on its own, but then came the pandemic and social distancing as the headlining act. March was a month of pause for me, I couldn’t engage heavily in social media, it was too much for my senses to process…I was twisted to say the least. All of the changes and transitions that I thought I had been preparing for was no comparison to how my entire world, our world, was changing before our collective eyes. Grateful to have been prepped by my own experiences just in time to help others through this transition and adaptation to our new normal. We may not be able to control things like nature, pandemics, or life itself honestly, but we can find our place in each phase of the living experience…let’s do this.
