Well, hang on this will be a long one.

"Sometimes we need to thank God for what didn't happen"

When I was let go from my associate position unexpectedly five and a half years ago, I had no idea what was in store for me. It felt like my chest was crushed and my legs crippled not only in fear of losing my income, but also not knowing what my next step would be.

Fast forward to today, on the eve of my 1 year anniversary in my office, I can, with complete certainty say that God lead me to this moment and opportunity.

My faith has strengthened throughout the past 2 years seeing that even through adversity and uncertainty, His plan is always in perfect timing and perfectly designed.

There were many (and I do mean many) days where I didn't think it would happen. I cried, HARD. But, as HE always does, he gave me affirmation time and time again that everything would be as it should.

I give glory to God for always having me under his wing and always keeping me safe. Safe from those who didn't have my best interest at heart. Safe from environments that were leading me away from contentment. Safe from things that wouldn't allow me to serve the way He intended me to do.

His divine plan has set before me a staff that I love with my whole heart. Meaghan, Terri, Stacey, and Noah all have an essential part of why our office is growing exponentially, and leading the way in our community. Not a single one of us alone can do what we are doing together and I am grateful that each of you are with me on this journey.

To every single office member. The originals, who have been with me from the beginning, the members who I inherited from the intentional and loving hands of the past owner/doctor, and those who I will soon meet, I cannot express adequately how much I appreciate you and your support. You show up! You support us not only by your continued patronage but also through your reviews, your donations to our fundraisers for the community, and through your word of mouth referrals. Our doors stay open because of YOU and I am filled with gratitude that you choose us with your care. I show up every day wondering how I got so lucky and I go to bed every night hoping I've made an impact that will alway improve your health.

If you've read this far (I'd be shocked but also so thankful🙂), please take a moment to be thankful for exactly where you are in life, because it is intentional. Also, help me in celebrating our 1 year Anniversary as the owner/operator of Balanced Life Chiropractic new location.

CHEERS TO AN INCREDIBLE 2025 FOR BLC!
Blessed is an understatement.
