See you in Charlotte
Ann and Matt talk about their excitement for the upcoming conference next week and everything they’re looking forward to doing, learning, and participating in while they’re there. They also take a broader look at what it’s like for therapists to step away from their practices whether for a conference, vacation, or family time. The conversation explores the behind the scenes work of managing schedules, communicating with clients, arranging coverage, balancing family responsibilities, and making time away actually feel like time away. With plenty of relatable discussion about the logistics of family life and the challenges of keeping everything organized, Ann and Matt reflect on how therapists can prepare for time off while still maintaining healthy boundaries and enjoying life outside of work.
