#34: Caring For Your Mental Health with Valerie Duquette, Flagler Health+ CAIR Center Director

< back to blog home

Valerie is the Director of the CAIR Center (the Crisis Assessment Intervention and Referral Center) within our local health partners, Flagler Health+

“As long as you are working from a place of honesty and you live in that honesty, and everything you do is from that place of authenticity, you’re gonna find your people.”

Have you found your people… and your purpose?

Listen in to the She Is Fierce! Podcast with Valerie Duquette – we’re talking all about mental health… our own and as well as the mental health of those around us.

If you’ve been struggling even a little with stress, overwhelm or something bigger – or trying to figure out how to help someone you care about – you will love this conversation and walk away with real takeaways.

In our conversation, Valerie shares her own path to a fulfilling career – one she never thought was right for her until trusted friends and advisers pushed her into it!

She also shares how an idea she had about how mental health patients could receive better treatment went from the idea of one employee to the powerful CAIR Center, which allows patients to receive both medical and social health services under one roof.

In this podcast you’ll learn:

The value of balancing mental and emotional health
How to ask for input from those you trust if your struggling to find your purpose
Why it’s never to late to find your passion and pivot your goals or career
The value of always being open to learn something new!
