In this episode we speak with Becca, she is a mental health professional from the United States of America. In June of 2023, she decided to resign from her position and traveled to New Zealand spending six months there, to evaluate her career and her future.
"It got very tough", Becca says. She had worked for seven years with teenagers in high & middle school.
We chat about the repercussions of early childhood trauma, isolation, the social development, anxiety and stress felt by all of us and especially by children.
Now on her way home, Becca decided to include a couple of weeks holiday in Rarotonga and Aitutaki. I appreciate Becca speaking to us.
