Finished quals last week and submitted my two essays on Monday. It was a wild ride, full of self-doubt, indecision, and anxiety. But it was also a lot of me reminding myself of my vision, worthiness, and intelligence 🥰 Over the past year I feel like I’ve been doing so much to learn how to ground myself and work through my fear and anxiety, and I’m grateful for that bc I was def using those coping mechanisms in full swing lmao.
And omg! My friends are the sweetest, they gave me a crate full of snacks (like fancy jams and breads), handwritten affirmations, and even a lil coloring book! I was fully surprised and felt so seen and supported 🥺💖
