Be curious. Go exploring.

It often begins with a small ache in your stomach on Sundays. Work has become joyless and meaningless, and you feel out of alignment. I was there. And I didn’t do anything about it until someone else took the decision for me.

Finding a new path was no walk in the park, and I was in desperate need of a guide. My primary goal today is to be that person I wish I had by my side six years ago. I would have given an arm and a leg to have someone to ask about where to start, what to focus on, and how to deal with my professional identity crisis.

My main learning has been this: Being curious and daring to test new things is so much more interesting than clinging to your old self and being afraid of what other people will say.
