Volunteer Advice: Be flexible on your education and remain open to learning
I genuinely believe that we rise by lifting others. I think one of the best things you can do is look for a community or opportunities where you can help support others. When I was in my bootcamp I started a study group and that helped improve my skills and the people I worked with helped push me to be better. We are still connected, cheer each other on, and share job opportunities with each other.
Be gentle with yourselves. It takes love, patience, time and lots of support to make internal, lasting change. One day, step, moment at a time. The PRESENT moment is where life is lived.
Never give up. The road will become difficult at times, but simply never give up. Find others who will lift you up and help you to keep going. Build a strong community of others who will support you and ones who you will support as well.
