But where they have the right to due process and a fair trial is in a court of law.
We can all agree that if a teacher is accused of molesting a student, they have the right to due process and a fair trial, but they should not remain in the classroom while the due process plays out. You don’t have a constitutional right to work with children.
We can all agree that if a doctor is accused of carving their initials into a patient’s uterus while performing surgery on them (yes, that really happened), they are entitled to due process and a fair trial. In a court of law. But they should not keep operating on people in the meantime. You have no constitutional right to perform surgery.
I recently wrote about “existential burnout” which isn’t just “I’m tired from over-working” — it’s something much bigger and deeper, affecting a huge proportion of society because so many factors just simply aren’t working. We are going through massive change post-pandemic, and many people aren’t able to work and “produce” in the same way.
I knew I would need a lot of help to continue listening to my own inner compass and not go off track again, and so my home is full of guideposts for myself.
