You are an educator, a guide and a healthcare provider 🙏 ☯️ When I decided to go back to school for 5 years to get a doctorate in Chinese medicine, my family & friends thought I had lost my mind! They wondered why I would “rock the boat” and leave my “perfect & stable income” to practice acupuncture, of all things! ☯️ BEST decision I’ve ever made, hands down! 20 years of challenges, growth, humbleness and pure joy! TCM has made a huge impact on my life. ☯️ I have been teaching it for 15 years because I wanted to inspire everyone to love this amazing medicine as much as I do.
