This week marks a 9 Year Anniversary at First Things First Wellness Centre for our Practice Manager Heather Karger. What an achievement and what a journey we have had. I've enjoyed your energy, unconditional support, enthusiam and hard working "get in and get it, bloody done" attitude.

You have touched many clients, staff and souls along the way with your wand of kindness and caring nature. Your belief in me has been a guiding force in making things happen and for FTF becoming the powerhouse of strength that it is today.

Words From Megan: 

Some of the best decisions I’ve made in the past year {random list}: 

-Spend more time with family and friends
-Say “Yes” to new experiences
-Listening to podcasts - Filling in the gaps in my life with educational audio - my preference is car time
-Reading Books, I’ve never been a big reader- It’s like having the best advice from mentors on demand.
-Regular detox and massage treatments
-Going to more entrepreneirial womens events and education sessions.
-Going on trips away with my closest family and friends
-Saying “No” to not doing anything i don’t want to or find unnecessary
