My Hopes For 2025

  I am definitely having some jitters about leaving my job. I am so excited for the freedom, but a part of me is really going to miss my apartment and New York. Living here has been such a dream. This is the first apartment I have truly loved and felt like home in. I love the beat and pulse of New York City (what a cliche, right?). But I am so heartbroken at having to leave my apartment. I even thought about renegotiating my contract with my current job and went through the entire process of creating a plan to possibly stay in my current position. But a part of me knows that is not the right step. Sure, I'll get to stay in my apartment and continue my life here, but there is no growth in that. I have to accept the fact that I am stagnant in this job and there will be no opportunities to grow as both a professional and a person. This job is suffocating me and I am unable to live my life because of it. Hell, I haven't even gone on a date in over 5 years. I don't even look pre...

Welcome 2024.

 


It's January 1st, 2024. So many emotions surging through me right now...

I return back to work in 3 days after my amazing 1.5 weeks off for the winter holiday, and I'm absolutely dreading all the drama and overwhelming number of patient messages and tasks I have to get back to. 

We are going on one last holiday adventure to Oglebay resort today which I'm really looking forward to. I love cozy winter cabins, and that place is my happy place. We are even staying a night in one of the queen Lakeview rooms which I'm soooo excited for. 

It snowed a bit here last night, so I feel like I'm in a winter chalet right now.




The other part of me is actually quite optimistic and excited for 2024. I just have a really good feeling about this year. Of course, every years starts off with so much hope and excitement, but there's something different about this year. I'm so ready to focus on me as the #1 priority - not my job, not my patients, not my family or friends. I am also about 80% committed to quitting my full-time position by the end of this year to pursue locums and see if short-term contracts are little bit of a better fit for me. Plus, I think locums is a good transition between clinical work and non-clinical work. I can have the flexibility of working when I want, taking as many vacations as I want throughout the year, taking off holidays which is extremely important to me, and just working in one place for 3-6 months at a time and then transitioning to a different experience. 

I'm going to write an updated list of new years resolutions and all, but I think the core of my 2024 resolutions is to focus on myself first and foremost, regain healthy habits, make more time for traveling, and get back into makeup & beauty.
