Your Pharmacist that Cares
The real Amy Gill is a lot like me and you… ‘wakes up each morning and puts her pants on one leg at a time. As a busy wife and mother managing a home, as a respected professional managing a career, Amy noticed that time, her most valued commodity, was in short supply. Time for the things that matter like family, friends and community – time for things that reduce stress and promote health.
Amy is an emerging leader worth watching. She is on a journey to take back time for herself and give back time to those who have similar values and goals to find the homeostasis (good health and happiness) that can be so easily lost in our crazy culture.
