Starting TheraPins

Amid everything that was going on with Howard, I finally got up enough courage to start TheraPins. I’m grateful for my experience at Howard, and if it weren’t for that experience, I would have never started TheraPins. It had been in my heart for a very long time. I had grown to love enamel pins because of Radical Dreams, which showcase pins that represent black culture. I always thought to myself, what if there were pins specifically for physical therapy students. And after that thought, I started doodling different ideas for pins in my journal, and before I knew it, I just acted on it. I talked myself out of launching it for a long time because I thought I should be at a specific time in my pt journey (after my white coat or after I finish PT school). The truth is, I didn't want my worst fear to happen. I didn’t want to wake up one day and see someone else accomplishing something I’d envisioned. Thus, I acted on it and have never looked back. 

It will never be a perfect time, so act now!
