Yesterday, I had one of those full circle moments, and smiled thinking about what I learned.
This is a place where I learnt fully about the practice of looking after yourself so that you can hold space for others.
That the team around you are so important in working to purpose, listening, caring and debriefing, having fun, laughing and navigating the humaning of your day
And most of all that your presence in the moment can be more important than all the knowledge, theories, tasks and degrees.
Thankyou to Hayley McDonald and the Comunications team at Women’s and Children’s Health Network for an afternoon of connection, reflection, fun and some reminders of how to to navigate life’s juggle.
Personally, it was great to reflect on the incredible experience, learning and wisdom that I had in my 7 years in Paediatric Palliative Care.
I look back with fond memories and was reminded of how this part of my career strongly informs my meaning and purpose and the importance of how are you really? and how do you know how you are?
