Rum Therapy
St. Lucia
Bartender: Steffi
Discovering a bar in St. Lucia called Rum Therapy: Bar and Treatment Center was a joyous revelation.
I laughed at how often I had gone through therapy but not in such a colorful oasis where I could kick back and enjoy local cocktails. The name itself, Rum Therapy, seemed to promise a cure for what ailed me. It was a reminder that life is full of new adventures and that we should always be ready to embrace them. After all, we’re toasting the end of a setback and cheering for the joy of new experiences.
And what better therapist / bartender than Stephi to help me wash away tears of the past and cheer for a better tomorrow? Stephi was not just a bartender; she was exactly the therapist I needed — a laughter therapist. Our spirited drink is appropriately called Rum Therapy and what better name for the Free-Spirited drink than Joy Juice?

TIC TOC!
The sound of every unbearable minute working for a beast of a boss. Have you ever worked for someone who, no matter what you did, you could not get a break?
Everything was wrong. I had a boss on a ship who I’ll call Marsha. She looked like a marshmallow and was as sickly sweet on the inside. This power-hungry, narcissistic boss was unbearable. And on ships, you don’t get to go home tonight. 24/7, you’re under the watch of someone looking for any reason to lash out.
Luckily, the torture ended after two of the longest months of my life. But one thing was for sure. Buoy, oh buoy, did I need therapy.
The relief and joy I felt when I finally found a supportive environment was indescribable. It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders and I could finally breathe again.
