Can’t put my finger on it, but for some reason makes me think of my sister-in-law!?

Dear Everyone,

A lot is happening in life. Typically, I keep what’s going on in my career close to my chest. With that being said, we are filming a lot this week and I need to focus on writing. It’s all crazy but I will also say I worked for every ounce of this. Work. That’s the theme. It’s time to adjust. It’s time to carve out time and be more strict about what I do each minute of the day. Due to the events that are taking place this week, I’ve elected to stay off the gram beginning today thru Friday. Not that anyone cares. 😂😂. But at times in life, it’s ok to focus. You have to so you can make that move and take advantage of what’s being offered. When people pray for time, do you think God gives them time or does he give them an opportunity to have time? If they ask for a career, does he give them a career or an opportunity to see a career being born and begin? With that, see you Saturday. each 📸cred 🤷🏽‍♂️

My accomplished and wonderful doc! Great words of wisdom and maturity. May we all try to strive for excellence.

The first time I was called nig #%r I was 7 yo. I was attending my “privileged” private catholic white dominated school (I was happy and had zero problem with the school). It was recess. No one knows this story because right after it happened, something changed. I began to deflect, absorb or ignore those type of negative, yet empty comments so much so that I stopped remembering them after they took place. When you’re 7, you have two choices to make. You can retaliate physically or you can absorb, have the maturity and understanding you will end up being the problem if you respond with your fists. That’s the difference. If you’re white, you don’t have to expend the energy to make that choice. And definitely don’t HAVE TO make it at 7 years old. (My first born is 7) I haven’t even brought up the substitute teacher Ms. Desiree who refused to teach me or call on me because I was black. No wonder some of my friends wondered why I had so many non black friends growing up. What was I supposed to do? Isolate and sit in the corner by myself? Nah. That’s not me. I turned the other cheek, dealt with it (along with pu***ss Ms. Desiree) and took advantage of the opportunity I had. But I don’t think my kids (or any kid that looks like me) should have to make that choice. How long do we have to “turn the other cheek”? I would have hoped the officer exercised the same restraint I have to when being called the N-word. That’s one of many reasons why I’m speaking up now. I should have said something then. I’ve shared a lot of experiences lately only to illustrate that a problem exists. Tomorrow, I’ll share a final story of a racist interaction in medical school that may have led to positive change. Then we will touch on actionable items instead of my black experience. My boys are leaders here so I’m just listening and helping. 📸cred sorry, my thumbs just started going again. It happens.

This one is for me. Everyday I think about what to write that relates to everyone else and possibly me. Right here, right now this is for me. Building a business requires attention. There are no breaks. There aren’t. At times, my friends may think I need “to relax”. My family may say, “Jamie, take a break and have a seat for a minute.” I can’t. I won’t. I work. I build. I don’t know if it’s the right thing or the wrong thing. But it’s called Rutland Medical Group. I stand behind that name and I’ll stand 24/7. Listen. I get it. You may not understand how I can do this. You may think you know what’s best for me. And I appreciate the concern. I love you for that. I do. But I’m building, thinking, strategizing, maneuvering and I can’t take my eye off...not for one second. I have to be better. You can’t do that by taking a break. (Here come the “take a break” comments). I wrote this right before bed. I know it’s not spectacular. But it’s for me. 📸cred

A pulmonary and critical care physician explained how COVID-19 affects the lungs of severely sick patients and showed how breathing is restricted with an actual computerized tomography scan (CAT scan) of COVID-19 infected lungs.
