Hi friends 👋🏼

I have been wanting to start writing for awhile, and I finally feel like I have an interesting story to tell- the story of why I did not start living until 25.

Two years ago, I thought I was on the path to success; after all, it looked great on paper, and people who knew me seemed to think I was on a successful path too.

It is pretty wild how one moment can completely change your life.

In one instance, I felt something in my life was terribly misaligned and I needed to make a drastic change.

That moment of clarity completely overwrote my life direction, habits, and philosophy.

Following Society’s Predefined Path

I was pretty convinced I was on the path to success. I was being guided towards it by people in my entire life and it was the only path I had been exposed to.
