Personal Experience
Honestly there are a myriad of life circumstances that changed me fundamentally. From abuse, ostracization, separation, depression, and near-death experiences, to things like burnout, being called out, and confronting those who’ve caused harm. On the other hand, having a myriad of incredible relationships, a beautiful supportive community, and all the joys of living a meaningful life in this part of the world. All of the above being experiences I’m grateful for and constantly inspire me to keep going.
