Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Parents:

    You should be a therapist. We need a doctor in the family.

  • How I responded:

    I realized that at the end of the day, I am the one who is going to be in this profession day in and day out. I needed to do something that I enjoyed, something that was fresh and unique each day, even if it wasn't going to make me the most money. I had to have a serious conversation with my parents and tell them: "I'm going in a different direction and I think this will be good for me."
