New beginnings are not only exciting and fun, but also a critical part of growing up. In order to live a fulfilled life we must continually change and better ourselves.
Napoleon famously said, "One must change one's tactics every 10 years if one wishes to maintain one's superiority."
Despite change being inevitable and something we need, it's common to feel lonely or scared when navigating new territory. We often feel as if we’re the only ones who truly understand the experiences and sensations we're going through.
Hearing accounts from others transitioning to a new chapter helps comfort us. It also reminds us that while there are many unknowns that feel scary and unfamiliar, these are all things that have been felt before.
