What I Expected vs What Happened: a Guest Post from Lindsay Melka
I am so grateful to have gotten to consult with Lindsay Melka and I’m honored that she is writing for the blog this month. She is brilliant, thoughtful, brave and so honest it sometimes makes my heart ache. You’ll get to hear more about her story (the really hard part where she had to stop working entirely to take care of herself) on the podcast June 5 when we flip the usual podcast structure and talk about some unspoken about things that can happen to us as we build.

High Maintenance: An Unlikely Goal
"High Maintenance" brings up some some interesting images...
I’m not talking about insisting upon caviar and peeled grapes, or looking and acting “polished” every day. That’s not necessarily a bad thing - it’s just not what I’m talking about here. Until this month, I’ve equated being high maintenance with snobbery, being demanding, and worst of all, being inconsiderate.Being inconsiderate is the worst.

Parenting and Private Practice
I’ve been asked numerous times to write about balancing parenting and starting a practice. I kept nodding my head and put check marks next to it on my “Blog Post Ideas” doc and skipping over it every time it came time to write.
