“All the material wealth cannot be substituted for the spiritual, physical, emotion and mental well-being.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita

Adele Levine
“Physical therapy has a high burnout rate. The long hours of intense one-on-one time is emotionally fatiguing. And while we universally love our patients, there’s always one rotten apple in the bunch who just breaks you down.”
― Adele Levine, Run, Don't Walk: The Curious and Chaotic Life of a Physical Therapist Inside Walter Reed Army Medical Center
