Welcome to my first blog post EVER!!! This is so exciting for me. I have wanted to start a blog like FOREVER!!! I am naturally a quiet observant person. I listen to others really well and enjoy connecting with the energies around me. However, often I do not have enough opportunities to share about myself, my thoughts, and my knowledge and experiences because I am such a great, compassionate listener so much so that I prefer to listen rather than talk. LOL. BUT, I do have A LOT to say and share with the world! My brain is like a rainforest - complex, multi-layered, colorful, intense at times, sensitive, and there is a lot going on in there ALL the timeπ. (Check out the book Your Rainforest Mind by Paula Prober if you can relate!) So, I LOVE writing and expressing ideas and thoughts through the written word. It gives me time to formulate what I want to say and how I want to say it. My mind seems to have a stronger connection to my fingertips (as they type away) than to my voice box. LOL.
So, here it goes!
I am Tasha Dodd, a physician assistant, health consultant, and divorced single mother of three children. I have a master’s degree in physician assistant studies and a master’s degree in human nutrition and functional medicine. I love women’s health and wellness topics. I love these topics, well, because I am a woman and have struggled with many health and well-being issues that plague many women, particularly hormone imbalances, skin problems, debilitating fatigue, and mental health issues. In addition, like so many women, I am also a survivor of an abusive (emotionally and mentally) relationship that almost buried me. It was my own health issues and personal life struggles that got me started in nutrition and functional medicine and energy healing practices.
So, why start a blog today, September 25th, 2022, of all days? Maybe it is the new moon energy pulsating through me. Maybe it is some astrological event giving me a surge of courage from the universe to share the workings of my inner mind and my knowledge with the world. Maybe it is the extremely rapid transformation that my external life as well as my very soul has undergone recently, sometimes seemingly without any control of my own, dragged by a higher power through the mud (believe me it’s been very messy the past 2 years) to get to the beautiful place emotionally, physically, and spiritually that I am at today. I am no longer in survival mode and finally feel free. No longer fearing criticism, rejection, and failure. If it wasn’t for failure of all kinds (in marriage, love, friendship, money, business, you name it), I would not be here writing to you now. Finally, I feel I am cracking the code to health, vitality, rapid growth, and true bliss. I know now how to turn problems into learning experiences and projects that stimulate growth. I have an insatiable desire to learn new things, understand how things work, and solve problems, and I have accumulated knowledge and experience along my journey that can help many women find their vitality and thrive rather than survive. What can I say? I am addicted to self-evolution.
My hope of all hopes is that my words reach those of you out there in the universe (and maybe even multiverse LOL) who need to hear them - to stimulate courage, self-confidence, and growth within you to keep going, keep growing, and find your beautiful self that you lost somewhere in your journey of life. If I made it through what I did and am here today writing to you, then I have full confidence that you can make it, too.
Follow me as I share my life and knowledge with you. I promise you will not be disappointed. I promise weirdness, nerdiness, humor, depth of emotions and thinking, and OF COURSE health related information and nutritional tips on women’s health issues.
So, stay tuned!
Wishing you health and happiness until next time!
Love,
Tasha
