For me, it sort of completes a circle in my life. So I started out working in the field of mental health, and I did that at the beginning of my career. So I did the work part of it. And then I started teaching social work at Ashland University, so I did the teaching part of it. But I hadn't done the serving part of it. And for me, that completed that circle for me.
