life is all antacids and cynicism

something's gotta give

patient care used to thrill you
what happened?


long hours
poor staffing
rough calls
fast food
kids
bills

i know the pressures of the healthcare life

i know what it's like to wake up to emergency call tones at 3 am

i've told a mother that her child is dead—and then gone home to fill sippy cups

i've eaten the sixth cheeseburger of the week, while driving

i manage patients who are paralyzed, sedated, and vented

i've wanted to scream when asked to complete yet another online module

i get it

at one point, i was miserable at both work and at home

know anyone like that?

i searched for answers—and found them

i controlled my stress and learned to manage my mind

i lost over 100 pounds and regained my health

now i get my kicks from helping others build resilience

"Joy is awesome! She knows how to ask the right questions."

"I often juggle many things, but my health was getting little attention. With Joy, I learned to prioritize my health. She showed me how to develop a plan and commit to it."

"Often coaches and doctors take a one-size-fits-all approach. I'm grateful that Joy is different!"

"Joy, your advice is Yoda tier. Thanks for the wise words."
