Abstract
Let’s face it: life doesn’t always care about your plans. You can have your five-year goals laid out, vision boards ready, and affirmations on deck, but life? Life will throw curveballs that’ll knock you right off your feet. Literally. In my case, it was a fractured acetabulum and a broken ankle. Oh, and did I mention it happened while I was transitioning out of the Army after 15 years of service at the tail end of a PhD, raising my child as a single parent, and building a multi-state telehealth practice? Yeah, psychological flexibility wasn’t just a nice concept I read about in a book. It became my lifeline.
