Has anybody else had an existential crisis—whether it was in college or post college in your early 20s—where you sat back and wondered what the fuck you actually want to do with your life? It’s actually kind of wild to think that after we graduated from high school (and we are babies—just think about all of the dumb decisions you made your senior year of high school and freshman year of college) like, all of a sudden, you’re asked to pick your major—aka decide the general trajectory for the rest of your life. Which is WILD. Who the fuck knows exactly who they are at like 18?

AKA, nursing, PT, kinesiology. But in their heart of hearts, it wasn’t the right fit for them. And then you finish college, or you’re in the middle of a loveless job, and the question hits you like a ton of bricks: “Now what?”
