40 Days of Grace - Day 7

-For a job that I love and enjoy.

I am so fortunate to have found a career where I have the opportunity to help people and watch them grow and make changes to better their life. For those of you who don't know what I do, I'm an exercise physiologist and I work in the cardiac rehab department at Centerpoint Medical Center. I've been working in cardiac rehab for over 5 years now. We see patients who have had heart attacks, stents, bypass surgery, valve replacements, and even transplants. Our patients come to us 3x a week for 12 weeks and we help them make the necessary changes in their life in order to live a longer, healthier lifestyle. One of the things I love the most about my job is watching the patients transform from a scared and sometimes frail person into a much stronger, more confident, healthier individual by the time they leave. The hours are great, the people are amazing, and I feel so good coming home at the end of the day knowing I've helped someone make a change in their life for the better.
