At times, people tend to be this other person that people want them to be. One can’t fully embrace or be in their top shape for their practice or profession if they’re not themselves. They worry too much of what other people would say instead of living their life for themselves.  We have only one life and the best way to live it is to be you.

On this episode, we have Dr. Sharon Dongarra. She graduated from Life University in 2010. She is currently practicing in Baltimore and specializes with kids.

Dr. Sharon talks about how chiropractic had helped with her depression and it paved the way for her to pursue the practice. She also shares how she deals with anxiety and gives advice on being true to oneself.

Key Takeaways

• You have to look at the trajectory of your life where you’re going, then decide whether it may be going on a new course or pursuing the course you’re already on.
• Once one understands the mechanism on how chiropractic can be effective in helping people’s health care, the children should be where the focus is.
• If you care for somebody like they’re a family or a friend, you will always put their needs first.
• When you spend so much time worrying, you won’t have any energy left to give yourself the options to make the choices to manage or avoid tragedies.
• It’s important for chiropractors to learn that they can not only get referrals from their own practice members but also in referral hubs like massage therapists, birthing centers etc.
• Do not worry too much on a lot of things; it’s best to enjoy the experience or the moment while it’s there.
• Don’t live your life to please other people.
• Learn to be average in everything and then work your way up. One must learn balance in their life.
• If you find yourself feeling afraid of all those other things, you have to liberate yourself from that because you only have one life.
