Now ten years later and my mom as well lost her battle with cancer and passed away this August. It has by fair been the most difficult thing I have ever experienced, and I have been through a lot. Thankfully I have therapy and school to help me keep pushing along with the motivation of being a mother myself. ]]> 2022-09-02 01:43:36 UTC https://padlet.com/msmith2123/6evdqnykkqtq16w6/wish/2280092435 msmith2123 https://padlet.com/msmith2123/6evdqnykkqtq16w6/wish/2280105251 I heard about Pacific Oaks through my therapist. She attended this college and recommended it to me after we discussed my current career field. By trade I am a dental assistant; although it is fulfilling I feel furthering my education and being in a field where I'm healing people beyond their mouths is my calling. My ultimate goal is to become a counselor for family therapy and childhood trauma healing. ]]> 2022-09-02 01:55:26 UTC https://padlet.com/msmith2123/6evdqnykkqtq16w6/wish/2280105251 msmith2123 https://padlet.com/msmith2123/6evdqnykkqtq16w6/wish/2280119382 This was a paper I wrote. The goal was to develop and discuss a theory I have came up with. I felt just okay about this writing, I learned that I am excited for obtaining and exercising new knowledge however I have much fine tuning to do within my assignments and my writing. ]]> 2022-09-02 02:06:57 UTC https://padlet.com/msmith2123/6evdqnykkqtq16w6/wish/2280119382
