🧵 on how I got where I am today, seems appropriate for #PainMonth:
At 16yo I was a senior in high school & sophomore in college, simultaneously.
At 18, w/ a double major & a minor within 2 semesters of #graduation, I quit college. I knew it wasn’t for me.
Do I regret it?

1st A bit about happened next:
I joined the #army to follow in my dad & grandpas footsteps.
Was seriously injured in the 1st half of training yet kept pushing. I made it through but needed extensive surgery & physical rehab & still have #Pain.
I came home feeling I failed.

Once I was home & healing, I turned the page.
I spent next years climbing a corporate ladder, making over $100k/yr at 20.
And I HATED every second of it!
I happily accepted a promotion to ‘head cook & chief bottle-washer’. I was married & raising a healthy baby girl.
