My Darling December

This month is my power month. As someone who actively identifies with my astrological sign of Sagittarius, I can't help but notice how all things kind of reach their critical mass around my birthday. This is good of course. It usually serves as an impetus for positive change despite a momentary fog of confusion and disillusionment. This year, I'm feeling the power. I've been dealing with a lot lately, but I feel like things are finally starting to fall into place and I'm getting stronger with each affirmation.

So today is a big day. It's 2 days before my 31st birthday, which means I'm already cultivating my birthday power. But most importantly, today I have an interview with a place that, despite how cheesy this may sound, is the ultimate place I've been waiting to work for. It is the amalgamation of all things that are important to me when it comes to working as a clinician. I have been, for years, trying to find a place that is a community health center, one that serves marginalized populations, people of colour and one that is multidisciplinary and progressive in their politics. I have found that in this place. When I first found myself looking for a job, I was getting pretty discouraged by the lack of opportunities that seemed to fit this vision of mine. I began to think that after years of talking about this to my friends and colleagues, that I may not actually find this in the sometimes pretentious world of psychology. But, in the knick of time, and I can't stress how fortunate the timing is, this opportunity has presented itself to me. I am invigorated and I am faithful once again. I hope I nail this interview and get this job because it would be the perfect birthday present. It would be the beginning of the next stage of my life as a professional, creative and community oriented woman. Wish me luck!!!!!
