This new zoom world has given us a window into the parts of peoples’ lives we did not previously get to see, but maybe that is not such a bad thing. Maybe we are learning that we are all human. We learn a lot when all of our life roles blur together and we see the whole person.
It may not be burnout. It may be betrayal. Remind yourself daily that you are stuck in something much larger than you. This is a situation that no amount of lavender aromatherapy is going to solve. There is no easy fix when the larger system has betrayed us.
Today we launch and the timing could not be better. OTs are being hit hard by COVID and we need to support each other and practice self-care more than ever!
