PHEC 237: How and Why You Should Celebrate Your Wins, Big and Small01 Mar 202200:25:16

We are often so quick to focus on our disappointments rather than our successes or the lessons we've learned, and that's simply not on. Here at Public Health Epidemiology Conversations, we have deemed it illegal to reach a milestone and move on without pausing to celebrate it.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into how and why you should celebrate your wins, big and small. Our host, Dr. Huntley shares a personal story to explain why it's essential to take a moment to reward yourself, and fills us in on the various ways in which she personally celebrates her wins.

As entrepreneurs, we have a tendency to perpetually move on to the next thing, without even recognizing, nevermind celebrating, our successes.

Tune in to hear some examples of what constitutes a win, why it's important not to minimize your achievements, and how to celebrate in a way that lights you up!
