We Are Reading Poetry…and We Talk
Sharon is a board certified plastic surgeon and creator of FaceBook Female Entrepreneurs Group in which she connects with like-minded physicians who branch out of medicine to do more. The ''more'' is many things: business, self-expression, private office or creative endeavors. We talk about that in this 8 minute interview. The poem she reads is by William Bennett and taken right from children book.

With gentle presence of poetry the idea is to bring awareness to wellbeing efforts for HCW and also illustrate a devastating aspect of burnout. If we can show the light to even a single person who struggles and contemplates the idea of leaving the professions it makes a difference and builds hope that together we can move the needle in the right direction.
Support Wellness.
The balance between work and personal life is a topic of many conversations. With this post I want to reflect on friendship and circumstances of last year and a half that could have been very challenging for those who are in caregiving professions, and those who constantly give back through their work, like nurses, acupuncturists - like Erin, teachers, academicians and healthcare providers of all sorts. It is not to diminish pain and suffering of other groups that have been touched negatively in last year.
Meditation no. 3 - poetry.
Did you know that many meditation apps started including poetry in their menu? Poetry can be so many different experiences for each of us. There are poems weaved in other sections of the blog that I welcome you to explore. I reviewed a few poetry collections in Bookish section. I am always hunting for more relevant or beautiful poetry collections.
Libby Lykins, PA talks about Magnificent Metamorphosis.
I met Libby through our mutual friend Steve Lyons, the Cape Cod artist that I interviewed for these pages in spring. Libby is a woman who wears many hats - she is a practicing clinician, editor, author and transformation enthusiast who wants to reach broader audience with her Magnificent Metamorphosis Magazine, see link to blog I wrote about it 2 weeks ago. I sat down to talk to Libby about her passion in this 18 minute video, hope you enjoy.
Do you think of change, balance or transformation? Do you need minute for yourself, or perhaps you have strength to help and listen to others? Perhaps you are ready for Metamorphosis..
Follow the journey.
