Q . WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO YOUR YOUNGER SELF JUST STARTING OUT ?

ยป I failed many times throughout my life , and I wouldn โ€™ t change a thing . It โ€™ s through these challenges that I learned about myself , my inner resilience and what really matters to me . I โ€™ m so much stronger than I thought I was .

However , I would tell my younger self to trust my gut feeling more regarding people I meet . Every time I had an instinctive understanding of someone , it turned out to be true ( in a good or bad way ). Also , to keep toxic people away and surround yourself with people who have light in them . Genuine human connection is one of the biggest gifts in life .
