This was a tough one for me to get over. There came a certain point after my depression where I realized I had to find my own purpose. So, I started researching what I could get myself into and found the digital media course, realized I think I needed to speak to people, and started to make peace with my situation at the time. I became grateful for it and got to work on what I hoped to be a step in the right direction.

I’ve always been a people pleaser. To this day, I don’t want to let anyone down, especially my family and closest friends. However, my journey and your journey is not anyone else’s journey. Words still hurt. But what does that say about them? What about the courage you showed by taking that chance on yourself and saying “I deserve better.” Take the wheel and put the pedal to the floor.

When Tim and I started on this podcast journey, we listed out the things people were going to hate us for first. We say openly that we’re not doctors or on any high horse, and that we’re just out to share our stories and hopefully connect with others and provide value. We know people will knock us because we’re in our mid 20s and we haven’t necessarily “made it” yet. We don’t have a “professional” degree and how do we know this and that and who are we do give insights on things that some may think we have no room to talk on?

True.

But we have and never will talk on things we don’t know about, won’t pretend, and will just share our own stories and insights and experiences based on those. We hope to connect with others and provide value through what we do, and we thank you for giving us a chance.
