“I was terrified! What is this new thing I have to do..? a podcast?, but I’m a writer, a clinician, NOT a speaker!”, I said. “You can do it”, Matthew Cavallo, MPH said. So off I went…….faced my fears of speaking to share my story which I hope will encourage us all to begin to confront and overcome our reservations about one another to improve trust. Initial efforts are never perfect, rather awkward at times…but we must persist with sincere hearts to overcome our individual reservations. NOTE TO SELF: next time…remember to breathe ?.  Happy to be back in my comfort zone.  http://bit.ly/2xmr9BQ  #Communication #GodlyCompassion #TrustImprovement Stay Connected! Stay Blessed!
