✨ WE ARE BACK BABY! ✨
After nearly two months away from the clinic… I’m officially back 🥹🤎
I didn’t really plan on taking this much time away, but if I’m completely honest, I needed it more than I realised.
Over the last 3 years I’ve been juggling my full-time NHS role, running my little business, my Master’s degree, being a mum, wife, keeping a house running and generally trying to keep ALL of the plates spinning at once. And eventually… I ran out of steam.
The emotional burnout and fatigue crept up on me slowly, and I think it took actually stopping for me to realise quite how exhausted I was… mentally as much as physically.
So I listened to my own advice for once 😂 and took some time out. Because who knew you can’t pour from an empty cup?!
I just want to say the BIGGEST thank you to every single client who had an appointment cancelled or moved. Not one person made me feel guilty. Instead, I had messages telling me to rest, look after myself and come back when I was ready. I honestly can’t tell you how much that meant. 🤎
And actually, I think there’s an important reminder in all of this too…
Burnout doesn’t always look like completely falling apart. Sometimes it’s feeling permanently tired. Losing enthusiasm for things you normally love. Feeling overwhelmed by tiny tasks. Being irritable. Struggling to concentrate. Or simply feeling like you have absolutely nothing left in the tank.
We’re very good at telling ourselves “I’m fine, I’m just busy” and carrying on.
Sometimes you need to actually stop.
I’m feeling SO much better, I’ve basically finished my Master’s 🎓🙌🏼, I’ve had some proper time with my family, and most importantly I’m coming back with a much healthier perspective on protecting my time and finding a better balance.
So… clinic diary is reopening and I am genuinely SO excited to see you all again.
Thank you for giving me the space to reset.
Now… LETS GOOOOOOO 🤎✨
