We live in a world where individualism or the “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” mentality is strongly encouraged. But what if most of the life you lived, you were pulled and pushed by forces you could not control? Perhaps you dealt with things far bigger than you and events you couldn’t have expected like personal health scares, mental illness, tragedy, trauma, or environmental factors like not growing up with the things or people you needed to help equip you for life; let alone adulthood or a career.
