Well... it’s actually here. ✈️🇮🇹
After **two years of planning**, worrying, organizing, overthinking and subjecting basically everyone around me to my ongoing verbal diarrhea about the kids leaving... Matteo starts school **today**, and I’m headed to the airport.
I’ll be away for the next month, but don’t worry, I’ll still try to keep up with the ridiculous TiredSole social media posts from afar. And if you’re interested, I may drag you all along for some of the crazy journey too. 😂
Because apparently I’m incapable of just “going to Europe.”
There will be family. There will be emotions. There will be work.
Being an entrepreneur means your brain never really shuts off. You’re constantly thinking about how to grow, improve, create and bring something new to the table.
And let’s just say there are a few **very secret things happening behind the scenes while I’m in Europe.**
Those of you who know the clinic know that a rather large amount of what we use comes from **Germany**.
That’s your hint.
Wink wink. 👀🇩🇪
But before I go, I need to say something very important.
A HUGE thank you to **Angela, Friba, our incredible admin team and every single one of our nurses**.
You are the reason I can get on this plane and deal with this whole new chapter of empty nesting without also wondering if the clinic is going to spontaneously combust while I’m gone.
You manage the chaos, care for our patients, support each other and keep this enormous machine moving every single day.
Because of you, I get to leave knowing TiredSole is in incredibly capable hands.
That is something I do not take lightly.
Thank you for giving me the confidence to step away, be a mom, deal with all these emotions, and still know that everything we’ve built together continues to thrive.
I am so unbelievably grateful for this team.
Now... off to the airport.
See everyone in a month.
And Europe... apparently TiredSole has plans. 😉💙
