Do have fun?

Hello wonderful community,

Something really bizarre happened. In the space of a week N had 2 patients say ‘You have to live your life, try new things, pick up hobbies’.

Yes T and N do a lot of ‘fun’ things but are now actively taking the time to seek these opportunities and give ourselves regular space to enjoy ourselves in a way that truly connects with us. FUN looks different for everyone.

For N it is going out for dinner in London, going to a gig or booking a massage.

For T it is having quiet time with her book, rinsing a song on repeat, cloud watching, plane spotting or dancing like no one is watching.

It can be ANYTHING!

Just make the time to do it because you really deserve it. 

We work so hard, we should play hard too!

Keeping It Real: Dr Annika Patel

In this episode, we sit down with Dr Annika Patel, a specialist Orthodontist and expert in lingual orthodontics, whose approach to life is every bit as distinctive as her career. 

A proud South Londoner with an unapologetically authentic outlook, Annika shares what it means to build a successful career on her own terms whilst staying true to herself. We explore how she juggles the demands of a highly niche role at work with raising her children intentionally and creating a life rooted in purpose. 

Authentic, energetic and refreshingly unconventional, Annika shares her thoughts on ambition, family and creating a life that feels genuinely her own. Enjoy!
