“We need to talk” Its a universal rule that when ANYONE begins a conversation with “we need to talk”, you know shit is about to hit the fan. Today was a pretty rough day. My supervisor and I were sitting in the manager office in my pharmacy. CVS was flagging me because I made some errors in the pharmacy. The company was basically putting me under close watch…basically CVS probation. Thoughts were running through my head after the meeting. I started doubting my ability as a pharmacist. I texted my pharmacy manager saying “I don’t think I can do this anymore”. My heart sank. I put so much work into this pharmacy and it STILL wasn’t enough. It felt like one of those high school relationships where you go for broke and in the end it felt like it was all for nothing. Today was DEFINITELY not my proudest moment as a pharmacist. But instead of choosing to hide from my mistakes and vulnerability, I want to embrace it. I came home feeling defeated until I opened one of my book and and read this… “Vulnerability is not weakness, and the uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure we face every day are not optional. Our only choice is a question of engagement. Our willingness to own and engage with our vulnerability determines the depth of our courage and the clarity of our purpose; the level to which we protect ourselves from being vulnerable is a measure of our fear and disconnection.” -Brene Brown
