It’s a do you or don’t you mentality.
Everything has it’s risks.
You compare gains and losses.
You look at how far you’ve come as a business and a team.
All the people that have been helped.
You focus on the positive.
But sometimes you have to let go, allow the inevitable change happen, and embrace the possibility of a better future.
In nursing, the turnover used to only be high in the worst areas of the hospital but now they are high even in the best work environments. Why? The shift has happened. We have learned from some really difficult events recently in our lives what we have been willing to exert too much time and effort in the non-stop hustle. We have learned TIME is minimal and sometimes we use way too much of it in work tasks, work travel, worrying, and on social media.
How do we get back lost time? We can’t. We can’t rewind and spend time with the ones we lost or time we lost during the last 2 years. We can change our future though.
That being said, after a 6 month long debate and an amazing, jointed effort by the Gem community, I have decided to officially close. Yes, we could move to another building or teach elsewhere. Maybe we still will....anything is possible in the future. We will always be surrounded by options and opportunities but some time to just LIVE is much needed and warranted.
I’ve never been afraid to fail as an adult. I guess because I never see anything as a failure. Every job change has been for growth, experience, and innovation. With every change I had fear and anxiety but also excitement for the new environment and people.
I see better things to come. I see how long we have been in business and how many people we have helped and trained. I see the growth in confidence as each of you get stronger and realize your true potential. That makes me proud. That makes me humble. That makes me realize it will all be okay. That you will be okay. That we can move forward from here.
❤️💎❤️ Much love and appreciation for the almost 5 years here. Huge shout out to the exceptional instructors who dedicated so much of their time to keep the Gem being such a true Gem of a place to the end. You know how much I adore you. Never, ever could have done it without you.
❤️💎❤️
Classes next week are for members only and their loved ones who they wish to bring at no charge as long as we have spots available.

The biggest question with a closure will be answered now:
We will be selling minimal equipment. Anything that is available for sale will be listed here during the next few weeks. Please do not call about equipment. When posted instructions will be with post.
If you wish to stay in touch in the future, message directly and I will add you to our contact list.
