A therapist explains how financial stability freed her to volunteer with refugees without income stress. She now brings her certified therapy dog to hospitals and cancer wards, expanding work she and her husband had long wanted to do.
So you're impacting more lives. The women want this. You're making money and you're also leveraging your time. So what does this mean for like your life and your freedom and your future? Like, how has this been kind of life-changing for you?
I'm so encouraged and so optimistic because something that my husband and I really value is working with refugees. And it's always been this battle of like, how am I going to have the time to do this? And so honestly, now I have the free time to be able to invest in This whole population of people I just love so much. And it's hard because like to work with them doesn't pay often. Like you're looking at like low level, which is totally fine. But now I just have— I do have the freedom to be able to volunteer my time without having to worry about, you know, am I going to make enough money and stuff. So I am so excited to be able to do more refugee work. But also even just like my dog became a therapy dog in the past few months, and I'm so excited to bring him to the hospital more and just have time to like Yeah, bring him into the children's hospital or to like the cancer house and just let him—
yeah.
So it's just freed me up to do things I'm more passionate about.
