Episode 02: Stop and Pivot
PARLAY started as a means to share stories of people who have found their calling and the journey that has ensued. Dr. Hillary Dinning is precisely one of those stories. She did not start her career as a Naturopath, in fact, she stepped away from a successful job trading on Bay Street to return to school and follow her dream of merging various modalities of medicine. Hillary is about as authentic as they come and if you follow her on any of her social media channels, or have the pleasure of knowing her in real life, then you already know this. In a world of filters and highlight reels, Hillary is a breath of fresh air that we need right now. Juggling her very full life which also includes that of mother, wife, sister, and friend among many other things, she somehow always seems to know when it is time to stop and pivot, and laugh off the chaos.
Some takeaways from this episode include:
knowing when it is time to make a change
making a series of small decisions that gradually amount to a big one
getting into our heads and our egos
some of the best life advice from her Dad
appreciating making decisions with both our mind and our gut
when to push and when to let it flow
