Something about this view relaxes me and puts me in a good mood. I love to travel and experience different cultures, food, and sceneries so I can better understand the viewpoint of others.]]> 2022-05-12 19:21:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181826321 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181849861 Working specifically in an OB/GYN clinic has provided me with a wealth of knowledge but it has also introduced to me the amount of misinformation and lack of care that many women receive. Unfortunately in many societies women are disadvantaged by discrimination rooted in sociocultural factors (World Health Organization, 2022). The Women's Health article provides and abundance of facts and articles that can educate everyone. ]]> 2022-05-12 19:43:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181849861 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181870254 Sometimes songs are meant to just dance to but there are other songs that could be sending a message. As an avid music lover I love to read deeper into an artists lyrics and interpret for myself what message they are trying to send and even apply it to my own life. My personal interpretation of Jhene Aiko's song Speak is about female empowerment as well standing up for yourself which are subjects I truly value in my own life. ]]> 2022-05-12 20:01:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181870254 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181887956 A statement that holds true for everyone but especially for those like myself in the healthcare industry is this: You can't take care of others unless you take care of yourself first. Many people automatically think physically but forget how important their mental health is too. The older generation were raised to believe that not being okay mentally was a stigma but today's society has changed that narrative and opened up the dialogue. Mentalhealth.org is a website that provides great resources and topics that provides assistance for those struggling with their own mental health or wanting to better understand how to help a loved one. ]]> 2022-05-12 20:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181887956 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181908342 I LOVE to try new dishes but but I can be a bit of a critic. I believe part of this has to do with my background. My grandfather was a chief that owned his own restaurant in Jamaica but my grandmother was the primary cook for the family. My grandparents taught my mother how to cook who in turn taught me. Being apart of the first generation that was born in America, I tend to put my spin on traditional Jamaican dishes. Through meeting other Jamaican families and tasting their dishes, I learned that each family makes their dishes in their own unique way. For example, the dish that I made which is pictured above might be made with ketchup or soy sauce to create the gravy. The techniques of how to make it could even vary from stove top to baked in the oven.]]> 2022-05-12 20:42:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181908342 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181972016 It feels like everyday I learn something new weather it's from my workplace, classes, or just life lessons. Learning is something that never seems to stop and I love to learn new things. For example, I am currently using an app to brush up on my Spanish and learn Arabic. People can learn how to cook, dance, play a sport, and so much more. The knowledge you gain will help you to grow and develop as a person and even assist you in adapting to different situations. The best part of gaining knowledge is that nobody can ever take it away from you. ]]> 2022-05-12 22:00:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181972016 ayannaholliday https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181979386 You never realize how much music can effect someone. It can evoke emotions, change your mood, or even bring comfort. Music has also helped people to associate or remember important items such as memories or test questions. I personally use music as a soundtrack to my life. Ask me about a song and I can tell you what year it came out and what was going on in my life at the time. ]]> 2022-05-12 22:12:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ayannaholliday/yy1fjenxcnap1xgr/wish/2181979386
