it’s normal to expect teenagers to decide the rest of their life (their major, career trajectory, specialty) but… 😭✋🏻 how??? i was very confident when i chose ballet but i’m glad i decided to carve my own path afterwards.

if you’re going through a quarter life crisis, career pivot, or still figuring it out, just know that i am here for you! we are in this together! 🙂‍↕️💗
