Each day I have taken time to reflect on what is important to me. My faith, my family & good health. This was a gut check kind of a summer as we embark on the final year of our program & some soul searching was quite necessary. I have changed and I had to wrap my head around it.

As I reflect I also have deepened my appreciation for those around me. Some phenomenal colleagues, classmates I consider friends, and most importantly my 3 babies and their daddy. The are cheering me on in this crazy process and I don't want to let them down!

I believe in the work I do and have seen many benefits to training others in the science of behavior analysis. My drive to improve and grow as a professional has led me to this course and to take on the challenge of this program. I am at a cross roads with my position at this time and am contemplating what the future hold for me. My dissertation is centered around supporting my growth in verbal behavior and I am looking forward to producing the final product (my dissertation).

My focus now is to make things more simple, to keep a strong focus, and avoid distractions. I have contemplated this program and whether or not it was right for me or if I could complete it. I am at that point where I know I need to stop questioning that and get to it already. Keeping a strong focus has helped me prevail even when I didn't think I could anymore. My attention now is to avoid distractions whether that be social media, social gatherings, or getting lost in watching television and stick to a schedule conducive to producing dissertation results! Reflecting on this has helped me stay calm and rational in the face of a lot of stress and pressure from many angles of my life.

I have achieved some personal goals along the way but am proud to be a part of this cohort, and although some are missing here in this picture, I think this shows just how much support means towards our achievement of our goals here at GMU! WE CAN DO THIS! I know we can!
