The beginning of a new calendar year creates an opportunity to re-evaluate what is important to you and what you prioritize in your life. We collected some aspirations from FOX colleagues to inspire others to move toward positive changes in their own lives. Below we're sharing what changes they plan to make in 2023 to improve their lives in one of the eight dimensions of wellness. Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. It’s more than being free from illness—it’s a dynamic process of change and growth. Julie Brown, OTR/L, BCG Spiritual Wellness Schedule time every morning dedicated to prayer and alone time with God. Allison Chambers, PT, DPT, OCS Emotional Wellness This year I plan to focus more on being "in the moment". Focusing on my family at home, and patients at work will help improve my work-life balance. Marjorie Grumbine, PT, DPT Emotional Wellness I am going to try a new recipe each month for different desserts and baked goods. Lukas Starck MS, OTR/L, CDP, LSVT Social Wellness Volunteer once a month at Starfish Animal Rescue to help prepare animals in need to be set up for adoption and meet others with similar passions! Raigan Grane, Account Manager Social Wellness Make and follow through on monthly friend dates doing something new to us! Billy Thompson, M. Ed, CCC-SLP Physical Wellness My resolution is to make changes to get the proper amount of sleep each night. Jim Shearer, Director of Communications Emotional Wellness I am going to try my best to not be goaded into clicking on any type of social media post or internet headline intended to create angry, one-sided conversations. Elyse Gordon, M.S. CCC-SLP Emotional Wellness Looking forward to rewriting the internal dialogue for 2023...Ending days with happy and positive thoughts to increase daily emotional wellness. Alita Borkar MA, OTR/L, CPAM Physical Wellness Having exercise-induced migraines and mild asthma makes me need cardiovascular exercise while making it harder to exercise; I aim to gradually increase the intensity of my exercise activities. Caroline Landry, PT, DPT Financial Wellness I am going to start contributing to my retirement account to prepare for the future. Stephanie Zabinko, MS CCC-SLP Social Wellness To check up on friends, develop friendships, not be afraid to ask someone if they are ok...like really ok, give encouragement. We all have so much stress. Dana Lepkowski, OTR/L Environmental Wellness My goal is to organize my home so that everything has its place. A disorganized space can cause anxiety and I am seeking peace in my environment. Danielle Boyle, PT, DPT Mental Wellness My goal for 2023 is to take a walk outside each day with my dogs right when I get home from work to destress and improve my mental health! Lauren Dillon, MSPT, GCS, CCVT, AIB-CON, CDP Emotional Wellness I look for attainable and fun resolutions that won't change my life but can add joy. I resolve to not repeat a nail polish color all year. Meagan Aponas, OT Spiritual Wellness It is my goal to increase my engagement in mindfulness activities to improve my overall well-being. I hope to gain an improved ability to be more present in the moment! Joanna Chen, PT, DPT Physical Wellness In 2023, I want to feel physically stronger by improving my sleep and being in top-athletic condition for ultimate frisbee while pursuing my GCS! Muneera Dadodwala, MSPT, DPT Vocational Wellness Being relatively new with FOX, I am looking to explore what new experiences can be gained, both in a clinical and non-clinical setting, and learn and grow in my role. Lanie Hefferly, OTR/L Financial Wellness After 3 years of working hard, 2023 should be the year my husband and I totally pay off our student loans and buy a house!
