The Curious Doctor Therapist
Letâs back up to yesterday for a second, because the mental unpacking was heavy.
I had a new 90-minute clientâa Dr. Therapist. She was curious about me because one of her long-time clients has completely shifted since seeing me, so she had to see what the heck I was all about.
Needless to say, I didnât disappoint.
I realized in that room that I no longer get intimidated by titles. Iâm out here teaching the doctor, and I love those moments. She even took my peptides and glow informationâshe wants to feel like me from the inside out.
But I had to remind her: thereâs no quick fix.
Itâs consistency.
Timing.
Retraining on your bodyâs time.
Integrating your thought process. Checking your nervous system. You canât rush evolution.
Morning Reality Check
Cut to 9:00 AM today.
My usual client had to cancel, and honestly? I was grateful for the break.
Woke up before my alarm, struggling to breathe because my humidifier needed a refill, and I was just too exhausted last night to even do my nasal cleanse. Some days just be like that.
I did my usual morning vlog and Glow Getter routine. Itâs my non-negotiable. I donât even want to know where my life would be if I hadnât found the glow back in November.
Yesterday wasnât some big, crazy dayâit was just the day everything from the week prior settled.
My mind and body finally caught up⊠and it left me spent.
The Post-Workout Burn
I finally dragged myself to my barre class at Life Time, and letâs be realâmy glutes are on fire. She kicked our asses today.
My left side is still lacking, and look⊠muscle atrophy is no joke.
After all the surgeries Iâve had in my stomach for hormone and female issues, I had basically no core left.
Itâs been a freaking ride.
At the end of last year, I was down to about 5% use of the muscles on my left side. We are still in the rebuilding phase and sitting around 85â90% now.
This is one of my favorite classesâI actually have three favorites at Life Time.
The instructor is so chill, and sheâs in it with you. Just the work of rebuilding and repairing whatâs been disconnectedâstrength and stamina coming back online.
Weâre moving the needle⊠one class at a time.
The âShower-Gateâ Connection
This is where it gets real.
I pre-meditate on my clients before I go into the office for the day.
So Iâm in the shower, thinking about a clientâs treatment plan, and when I see her later, I lead with:
"I was thinking about you in the shower.â
Immediately⊠Iâm likeâ
Oh my God, Wilson. Get your shit together. đ
That came out SO bad.
But thatâs real life with me.
My client just starts dying laughing. Brushes her hair, shakes it off, and goes:
âItâs alright, you can think about me in the shower đ Youâre amazing, you get it, I trust youâletâs go.â
You truly cannot make this shit up.
These are real connections. Real bonds. The kind you donât force, donât scriptâyou just show up, and somehow people feel it.
Thatâs the work.
Holding It All Together: Advocacy & Expansion
The rest of the day was the usual juggle.
Picked my son up from the eye doctor before heading out to my two special needs clients. And of course, itâs always somethingânow Iâm in the back-and-forth game of the he said, she said loop just to get him the next resources he needs to keep growing.
The advocacy never stops.
Oh my goshâand I canât forget.
I just ordered three new advanced chemical peels, and they should be arriving next Tuesday. I am so excited to start working with these and seeing how they integrate into what Iâm already doing.
And next Tuesday night is when we go live on Facebook and TikTokâso I will definitely be using one of these new peels in that demo.
Sir Prince Parker
The perfect way to end the night?
Taking Parker for a walk.
He rang his doorbellâthatâs his signal for a walk. The jingles on the door are for going potty. This time, he chose the doorbellâpolitely asking to go out, like the little gentleman he is.
And heâs getting so good.
He sits and waits until the doors are clear before walking through. He sits at curbs, looks both ways before crossingâŠ
Like sirâwho trained you? Oh wait⊠that was me đ
Hands down, the coolest dog Iâve ever owned.
The only downside?
Heâs my sonâs therapy dog. So the day my son moves out⊠Parker goes with him.
For now, Iâll take the doorbells, the walks, and the pauses at the curb as a reminder to slow down and look both ways myself.
Stay weird. Stay consistent.
