I am six months into my career break and I didn’t do any of the things I wanted to do. Some due to health issues but instead of beating myself up I’m trying to be extra compassionate towards myself. It’s hard.

Oof I feel you Brenna. That's how I feel this past year. I am not where I was hoping to be and it's amazing a year has gone by. I'm trying to be compassionate to myself too. One thing that helps me is thinking about my future self once I have more of life figured out. I'm sure future Grant will wish that I had been kinder to myself and enjoyed the process of figuring it out more. It's hard when I don't know how things will turn out though.
