Finding Balance: Communicating with Compassion on the VulnerABILITY Podcast
Confidence is the way you carry yourself, and you can be confident in not knowing what you want to do too. I don't know what I want to do, but I'm pushing towards finding out, pushing towards finding out, and eventually you'll get there, whether it's today, whether it's a month from now, maybe a year from now, maybe a decade from now, but I don't think the destination is the endgame and what you'll truly enjoy I think it's the journey.
