You’re Not Behind. You’re Becoming
Figuring yourself out takes time — and that’s okay. For some, the pressure to define a clear career path early in life feels like a race. You’re expected to know your “thing,” master it, and run with it by your early 20s — or else, you’re considered “lost.”
But what if your transitions are part of the plan?
I’ve learned that every shift, pause, and pivot teaches something vital — whether it’s patience, skill, resilience, or clarity. From studying communications, assisting with research, working in banking, creating content, learning hairstyling or helping my family set up our business — each phase has stretched and shaped me in ways I couldn’t see at the time.
It’s not always easy to explain your path to others when it doesn’t look “linear.”
But I’m learning that growth isn’t always straight — it’s layered. 🌱
So if you’re still figuring it out…
If you’ve felt out of place because your career doesn’t have a neat label yet…
Know this: you’re not behind. You’re being prepared.
Keep showing up. Keep learning. Your purpose unfolds with time, not pressure and that’s exactly how God made it.
Have you ever felt lost in transition but later realized it was growth? I’d love to hear how others have navigated it too.
