"Everyone is going through something you don't see."
For those of you who don’t know— I am a nurse. I am also a human that has an autoimmune disorder. This is not something that I normally discuss/share in an effort to protect myself from people viewing me as weak or incapable, but also— to ensure that I never use this facet of my being as a “crutch”. I want to make a difference in this big blue marble— and I don’t want it to be because someone felt sorry for me. With that being said, If I am being completely honest... it has been an extremely emotionally challenging time in regards to navigating my ability to work in the hospital setting during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ultimately, my immunologist has decided that working in the hospital is not an option for me in the foreseeable future out of concern for my safety. With that being said, I still have the same 206 passionate, driven, caring, creative bones in my body— and they still strive to serve... to create... connection, community, self discovery... “all the things.” I am aware that the avenues in which I pursue this idea/goal are going to have to look vastly different than they did before (hence starting The Audacious Joy Project)— but that’s ok— that is where YOU come in! How can I help? How can I serve you? How can I pour into your cup? I would love to hear from/collaborate with you! Love, Christy |
***Classes have stopped as of 6/2020 (when I returned to work) ***but you can check into previously recorded classes on my Instagram Reels and/or The Audacious Joy Project on Facebook. Playlists posted on Spotify
