DAY IN THE LIFE OF JESS đđźââď¸
Start the day refereeing dogs and kids (and Guinea pigs) like itâs a contact sport.
Childcare drop-off complete⌠usually with at least one forgotten item and a mild identity crisis in the car park.
Get to the clinic, quick moment of this is cool, we built thisâŚ
then immediately into whoâs called in sick, whatâs broken, and why is the phone already ringing.
People think I just treat patients all day.
I donât.
Iâm treating, yes BUT Iâm also managing practitioners, answering questions, troubleshooting cases, making decisions, backing the team, and trying to be about three places at once.
Itâs part clinician, part mentor, part problem-solver⌠part professional plate spinner.
In between patients itâs:
notes, quick team chats, fixing things no one else saw, and making sure everything still runs the way it should. (Special kudos to Ben and Hannah for keeping me focused)
Sneak in a gym session where I can (usually the morning) partly for my own sanity, partly because makes me send selfies
Then itâs home.
Dinner, kids, noise, chaos⌠and a glass of wine thatâs doing a lot of heavy lifting.
Itâs not calm.
Itâs not aesthetic.
But itâs real, and I genuinely love it.
