When I went to school to be an OT, I thought I could take on the world. I was the most ambitious new grad in the south and honestly felt like I was going to make a difference in the profession. Research, symposiums, teaching. I could do it all. I am now 5 years into it and what I can tell you is... I'm tired. The politics involved in this profession are exhausting. I go to work everyday hoping I don't have to confront yet another director to remind them what ethical behavior is. What I have discovered is that I need to own my own business. I haven't quite decided yet what I'm good enough at to do, but what I do know is that Ryan, Carly's boyfriend, has agreed to buy the house across the street from me to be our "office" and Carly and I are about to take over the world... the "how" is still a process, however.
