Teammates might misunderstand me as...

Cold

I can be standoffish sometimes, especially if I'm stressed (whether work-related or not). I definitely do have a strong need for boundaries and to keep to myself, but I really do love people & appreciate all my team members!

Most fulfilling project I've worked on

Helping my client give birth!

It was really great to start with her early in the process and see what she hoped for out of her birth experience. We got to see a lot of it come to fruition, and her happiness at the end was incredible!

😬😧🥴 Recently went outside my comfort zone…

Doing anything new! As a PP doula for the first time, I lack confidence.

Starting a new task or career is hard for me! I appreciate strong direction, but some things I have to do on my own without as much direction. I can really lack self-confidence and distrust myself and what I'm doing. I have to constantly remind myself that I'm doing enough, and to trust my team to let me know if there's a way I can improve.

I really admire teammates who are…

flexible, communicate very clearly, gracious, fun to be around

These qualities are important to me because they help me to have a good work-life balance & boundaries, as well as to understand exactly what is expected of me so that I can make my own schedule & work life as efficient and clear as possible
