The Audacity to Be Me

The Audacity to Be Me

Hi, I’m Hunji, The Next Chapter Navigator, someone who’s taken a different path, even when it felt scary and uncertain. I know what it feels like to live off track — to take a path no one else understands. It was lonely, scary, and took more courage than I ever imagined. I didn’t have much support, but I kept going. Now, I’m here to help you do the same. If you’re in your 20s or 30s and feeling stuck or afraid to break free from the ”norm,” I’m here to remind you: you are stronger than your fears. Let’s push through together. **Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@hunjieng

You’re not a bad kid for choosing a life your parents don’t understand.

You can love your parents and still choose your own path.

You’re just becoming who you really are.
