Hi There!
If you are receiving this newsletter it’s because you’ve subscribed to my Substack or you were receiving my Flodesk newsletters.
Substack will now be my main platform for connecting with all of you once a month or so! I intend to share with you some recent thoughts, favorite products, platforms, and my grad school updates.
It’ll be a busy year as I come into my final year of graduate school, start my internship and begin a new job as a Dance studio manager. In grad school, I’ll be working on my thesis (my topic is TBD). This will consist of my choice of a 30-page literature review, a literature review with a new intervention method, or a lit. review with a community engagement project. Either way, I am stuck doing a literature review, it just depends if I want to take on extra work or If I can come up with a project idea.
For my last year's internship, I will be working at an inpatient psychiatric hospital teaching group therapy. For my first 100 hours, I will be only observing, which takes off the stress, and after those hours are complete I will be on my way to co-facilitating and leading my own groups. This was a population I initially had no interest in working with but I see it as a very necessary and traditional experience for my career in mental health. If you know my family, you might know that my dad is a clinical psychologist who also works at a psychiatric hospital. Like father like daughter apparently, my dad and I will have more than enough to talk about and I am glad he will be able to mentor me throughout this process.
Lastly, I am back in the dance studio friends! I actually never thought I’d be back but here I am. I soon will be teaching my own conditioning classes but for now, I am managing the front desk, teachers, and staff. This is all work I used to do indirectly. I know all the ins and outs. I’ll be able to practice my skills firsthand and get back into my studio routine. I am very excited! I also so happened to make it work out where my internship is a 5 min. drive from the studio! How about that!!
Needless to say, I am hitting the ground running. I only swim in the deep end! HA. So if you stay with me here, I’ll fill you in on all the latest and greatest. I am extremely excited to get this ball rolling. Thank you so much for taking the time to subscribe and read my work. I hope you get something out of this whether it’s an AHA moment or the recommendation you needed.
Thanks for your time!
With Gratitude,
Miranda
