EHL

Thank you Emerging Health Leaders (EHL), Toronto Team, for organizing the social event last night.
Many people asked me what I hoped to get out of attending this event and my response was simple: “No agenda. Here to talk to and learn about other healthcare professionals”.
While I didn’t get to speak to everyone, the people I connected with were driven, passionate and forward thinking. That is not only a reflection on their career ambitions but their personal life as well.
Few reflections and realizations from attending this event:
1. To be successful or in order to be successful you don’t need to have every turn in your path figured out.
2. Sometimes we need to step back and looks at the available options and the bigger picture.

3. Find opportunities to speak to individuals outside of profession. You will appreciate the new views and perspectives.

Looking forward to EHL’s September 12th event !

RTSO 2018 Summer Airwaves

RTSO’s Summer 2018 Airwaves is out!
This is a quarterly publication that I look forward to reading.

As many of you may know, I learned about RTSO through this publication. I appreciate all the hardwork done by this team! Over the last 8 months I have volunteered with this organization (as a director, lead for social media, and member of the Pulmonary Diagnostic Advocacy Working Group and Inspiration 2019 team). Shawna and her team have done a great job with this latest publication so do make sure to check it out!
