There are so many wonderful things that have come from taking the leap and opening my own clinic, but this is definitely one of my favorites.
My kids can stop in and hang out with me whenever they want. They can help with little things around the clinic, raid my snack drawer, watch a movie, build a farm, or simply just be here with me while I work.
Owning your own business definitely comes with its challenges, but it has also given me something I didn’t fully appreciate when I started, the ability to build my work around my life and my family, instead of always having to build my life around my work.
And I love that my kids get to be part of it. They’ve watched this clinic go from an idea, to an empty space, to a place where I get to care for people in our community every day.
There are so many things I’m grateful for since opening Lakes Country Healthcare, but getting to have my kids here with me whenever they want is pretty hard to beat.
