This was so relatable - I went to the Integrative Healthcare Symposium years ago and had a similar experience as 23 year old you. Fast forward to now, and had I gone I'd likely feel that much of the advice is either unrelatable, inaccessible or even harmful to some individuals (Mark Hyman... I cannot). It really does go to show how we can and should evolve as healthcare practitioners, and have compassion for our past selves that maybe thought and practiced a bit differently before.

Absolutely! Especially on the compassion part, which is often a challenge. Couldn't agree more with all thoughts here!

I loved this newsletter! Enjoy vacay!! 🌞 I also loved House by the Cerulean Sea- his first book Under the Whispering Door was also fantastic but does deal with death. I would actually recommend the Super Secret Society of Irregular Witches for a Cerulean Sea vibe— fun house, quirky cast of characters, and a romance! Cheesy at times but I found it adorable!
