When Work Is Your Identity, What Happens When It Stops? I used to think healing was mostly physical. Get through the surgery, push through physical therapy, rest when needed, and eventually, things return to normal.

Let me know in the comments if you have further suggestions for my San Pancho and Sayulita travel guide. San…
