On this episode of Heal The Healthcarers, join me as I reflect on my recent birthday celebration. Over the course of 50 days leading up to my birthday, I intentionally focused on things that brought me joy, made me feel loved, and made me feel powerful. From small activities like coffee with friends to bigger tasks like clearing out my childhood home, I prioritized activities that were important to me.
I also emphasized the importance of reflection and learning from past mistakes for personal growth and development. As part of the celebration, I am recording a series of podcasts and I am eager to hear about the things my listeners are celebrating as well. I encourage you to consider childhood celebrations that are still celebrated and to think about potential future celebrations.
I also introduce Heal the Healthcarers, an organization that offers support in unraveling the past, processing grief, and taking time for oneself. Our goal is to assist individuals in transitioning from burnout and stress to choosing self-love and celebration.

I guide you through a deep breathing exercise and invite you to join in the celebration, emphasizing the positive impact celebrating has on our bodies and minds according to science.
I admit to struggling with celebrating myself but excelling in celebrating others. I encourage you to consider if you allow yourself to be content and celebrate the small things in life, expressing my own happiness and feeling loved during my birthday month.

Connection is a vital part of being human. There is always a supportive community that spend time together to lift each other. Being open and willing to see someone else .Balance. Harmony.

Who can you connect with today and make a difference? It is a ripple effect.
If money and time were no object ….
Who do you get to be to create what you want to see in this world?
When you use your imagination and amplify then what results will you get?

Who is a Healthcarer? Do you take care of the health of others? What classifies those who have the willingness to support the health of others?
Routines can support having the best day ahead.Reading has been shown to increase language, communication, problem-solving, and imagination as well as productivity.What possibilities exist that you haven’t explored yet? If you were to read a story of your life, what would it say? What legacy are you leaving? Are you BEing the change you want to see in this world?
Continuing on in the WOW WAKEUP routine brings us to the Attitude of Gratitude today.
What are you grateful for? From the time you wakeup until you go to sleep, what you focus on grows.
What are the best things about your day?
What would it be like to focus on the goodness?
Neuroscience supports an elevation in your mood simply by taking time to intentionally focus on what and who you can be grateful for.
Are you willing to give thanks for everyone and everything?
What will you choose today?
Today I explore the power of getting it written down. There are many ways to journal. This is an exploration of some possibilities.
Jump in where you are at. There’s no right or wrong, good or bad. It’s an option to discover who you BE when you sit with yourself. It can happen in incredible ways and in several formats.
Buckle in. Let’s begin.
A practical way for the day to start is by in-spiring. Literally taking a breath inward. Then what’s next?
Many people have a practice around acknowledging their worthiness. Sometimes people do it in the form of prayer, meditation, singing, or dancing. Ultimately, it’s all about coming into that space of connecting with oneself. There are many forms of this. A few ideas are bounced around and a short meditation is included.
In January and onward there will be journals to further support and clarify the path that we are all on together.
Who do I get to be? What do I get to have? What results do I want to have?
It’s like looking at an assessment, creating a plan, intervening, and evaluating.
Visualization and unlocking your body can be a great tool to shift your health when you aren’t moving forward.
If you really knew me, you’d know…
Tune in to find out.
It’s a big piece of who I am and what I love.
Join in on this key part of a daily WOW WAKEUP routine. Including this as a component of everyday living will surely change your life like it has mine.
A short meditation to ground you and point you in a flowing direction for the day.
Life begins and end with breath! When was the last time you actually took time to pay attention to your breathing? In this time together, I focus on an easy system reset. It all begins with being aware of what is going on in breathing patterns and how it feels inside. Let’s dive in together!
Who do I get to be to take care of me?
Healthcarers take care of others everyday.
Creating a loving, powerful intention to take care of you can start with a few simple steps.
Today’s episode includes tips getting your water in, focusing on your body, and breathing.
Set your intention to create your best day!
Let’s begin.
In this episode, I talk about setting my intention from the very beginning when I wake up with the two most powerful words ~ I AM.
It is about creating the day from a state of being curious as I play this game of life.
Join me as I explore and create a piece of what the day can be like rather than the usual hit the ground running with a list of things to do. It’s about setting myself up to meet life’s challenging moments in a state of surrender, and learn what is possible when I let go, be intentional and curious.
So, I invite you to jump in and walk on this path with me. It is a pleasure to meet up with you.
Let’s begin.
Join Michelle Petitpas in this inaugural episode where she set you on the journey for healing yourself as a health care professional.
