you are not a drop in the ocean; you are the ocean in a drop
In this episode, we welcome Alex Burcea.
Alex is Victoria's sister-in-law and a compassionate, wonderful person that shared with us a regret about putting herself last.
As always, we start the episode with our check-ins and cause for applause. This week, that includes catching up with an old friend (Shadoe), presenting at a panel event (Victoria) and Doing Something NEW on her birthday (Alex).
To skip this part, tune in at 10:15.
For the regrets, Shadoe shares that she regrets forgetting how much she enjoys alone time. In addition, she feels guilty about complaining about how much she needs this, and, somewhat ironically, cannot solve her need for alone time on her own.
During the feedback session, we discuss toxic gratitude, as well as intrusive thoughts such as "be careful what you wish for".
Then, Alex opens up about her regret, which is about not prioritizing her own health and wellness.
During the feedback session, we discuss the warning signs to look out for. If you are having trouble falling asleep, or losing interest in the things you love; that is when you need to reach out for help.
We discuss this with a lot of detail; and, although we don't have the answers, we were all able to agree that We are so willing to help others, but, many times, afraid to ask for that same help.
We then finish the episode with three new breaths!

Here is more about Alex, in her own words:
"I am a Critical Care and Coronary Care certified Registered Nurse, specializing in Cardiology. Until recently I have worked with Critically Ill patients primarily in Cardiac Intensive Care. My work included being part of the Resuscitation Team (often referred to as Code Blue team), and primary care and responsibility for people experiencing a Critical Illness. I have worked in multiple other areas of medicine, but Cardiology has always had my Heart (pun intended).
I am a mother to two boys and a wife to an amazing man. I am currently working on my physical and mental recovery."

We were thrilled to have Alex on the show and hope that she comes back again!
