He dives into what inspired him to return to the field with a healthier mindset and new boundaries, and discusses the changes he made to his approach to work-life balance.
Tune in for Christian’s insights and advice on navigating the ups and downs of a therapy career, and hear how he rediscovered his passion for helping others. This episode is a must-listen for any therapist looking to redefine resilience on their own terms.
